Hilarious film about a made-up sport, free from all the corporate nonsense associated with the other major sports, and one where less athletic people could play.
From the early days of the sport's creation to the tension starting to tell in the creators (one wants to keep the sport true to its roots, the other wants to capitalise on the commercial success), this hilarious film shows Trey Parker and Matt Stone in real life for once, and is their funniest live action appearances since Cannibal: The Musical.

Aww, I really enjoyed this. I thought it was a sweet little romance.

This is probably the first NA book i've read that didn't include rock stars, tattoo's, piercing's or some sort of sport and I like that it's different.

Hilarious movie with its tongue firmly in its cheek regarding this low key 'sport'
Everyone here is at their funniest and clearly having fun with the film, it's often laugh out loud funny and very re-watchable.

"This was the first real classic I remember reading. It occupied my heart from page one. It’s still with me. The whole panorama of life (yes our human experience too!) can be told through the experience of this magnificent noble beast. Riding was my first sport, horses were my first love. Black Beauty and Ginger were then my favorite fictional characters."

I've always found Will Ferrell to be a bit hit and miss: sometimes he is funny and has some good movies (Elf or The Lego movie belonging near the top); others are cringe-worthy bad (Step Brothers).

This one falls in the middle somewhere, with Ferrell starring as one half of the main duo Michaels and MacElroy (Jon Heder), two former Olympic figure-skating champions who have been stripped of their medals and banned from their sport after a public dust-up on the podium, but who have now discovered a loophole that will allow them to compete again as a pair (and as the first all-male pairing in the sport).

It's as ridiculous as it sounds.

Best bit? Probably the slow-speed chase near the end that shows why skates should only be worn on the ice!

Yes, a fun family film. John Cena (ferdinand) was perfect for the role. The film as a whole missed a few things to put it up there as one of the better family films. The Comedy was funny at least. Hoping it brings bull fighting more into the limelight, mainly for how barbaric a sport it is.

Comes pre installed on most Android phones, and I want to like it. I really do.

However, doesn't cover all sporting activities (missing any option, other than 'other', to record my main sporting activity of archery), rarely syncs properly with my Fossil Sport and never retains my distance, despite recording said distance immediately after a walk or run (but then later shows 0 miles for same record).

As such, can't really recommend it.
