Blades of Glory

Blades of Glory has been out for a few weeks and you have probably read tons of reviews and/or seen it already. So, I'll keep this brief. For every two jokes that succeed in this movie there is one that gets no laughs at all. The key to a great comedy is to have a bunch of great jokes in a row because it gets the viewer to a point where they just keep laughing even if the next joke is sub-par. Hence, it hurts the flow of Blades and Glory when in between every couple big laughs there is silence. The usual Will Ferrell brilliance is here but not often enough and Jon Heder stands his ground (which surprised me). Overall, it's a good comedy but it is definitely one you can wait for until it arrives on dvd.
