Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald The result proves sadly under-choreographed. And choreography is everything in a film that leans as heavily on slapstick as this one. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 23, 2007 Full Review David Fear Time Out After Ferrell's manchild partners with a fey figure-skating rival (Heder), it's strictly uninspired buddy-comedy bickering. Rated: 2/6 Apr 7, 2007 Full Review Emma Clark-Dow The Post NZ Blades of Glory is a classic, laugh-out-loud film, and is perfect for when you’re looking for something mind-numbingly hilarious. May 3, 2022 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins A routinely amusing blend of infantile scenarios and daffy characters that matches Ferrell's string of send-ups on various professions and sports. Rated: 7/10 Nov 24, 2020 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com One of Ferrell's greatest gifts as a comic is the perfectly timed spontaneous gesture, facial expression or random action. Rated: 2.5/4.0 Sep 3, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
