Stranz and Fairchild plot to injure Chazz "below the knee and above the ankle", references the attack on Nancy Kerrigan prior to the 1994 Olympics. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: When the skaters' scores are posted on the TV, the Van Waldenbergs are listed by their first names, but all of the other skating teams are listed by last name. It should have read Van Waldenberg/Van Waldenberg instead of Stranz/Fairchild. more

Pleasantly surprise, solid comedy throughout the whole movie!, 31 March 2007
8/10
Author: revadirchy from United States

I saw the preview several days ago and figured it was just another case of, "put the funniest parts of the movie in the trailer to hook the public and then be disappointed later", but I was surprised and the comedic cohesion between John H. and Will F.. The dialouge was some of the funniest I've heard in awhile and the physical comedy was timed perfectly. This is not just another mediocre performance from Heder and Will that we have grown accustomed to. This movie really delivers and there were plenty of great cameos. Including Jenna Fisher from the office and even Nancy Carrigan. If you truly have an eye for good comedy, they you'll love this movie. I think it was the best comedy I have seen in awhile.
