Bottoms up could mean a lot of things in this movie. It begins with Jon Heder and Will Farrell's descent from the pinnacle of the figure skating world to the absolute depths of desolation while seeking out a meager living in the land of broken dreams. Their bottom feeder existence after their dismissal from the professional skating world appears to be a downward spiral. A destructive way of life is no way for either of these super cool superstars! Chazz Michael Michaels, played by Will Farrell, teams up with Jimmy MacElroy, played by Jon Heder, in an attempt to take the professional world of skating by storm. This film is hilarious! It's one of those films that if you laugh too much you will miss even more of the funny portions of the film that lend to its appeal. Reminiscent of Zoolander, Will Farrell's character resembles, in a way, Mugatu, the fashion fiend who took advantage of Malaysian workers to produce his monstrosities of fashion. Jon Heder's honest and innocent personality seems to shine through every role that he plays, whether it's roaming the high school halls as Napoleon Dynamite or strutting his stuff on the ice as Jimmy MacElroy. Jon's popularity is only growing, as is his career.

Another double axel like that and the judges will demand a repeat performance in the way of Blades Of Glory 2!
