One of our premises for ClearPlay reviews is based on homespun wisdom most of us learned from our mothers: If you don’t have anything good to say about a movie, don’t review it. This gave me pause when considering Blades of Glory, the only big DVD released this week. But for my mother’s sake, I’m going to try to see this glass half-full:
If Dumb and Dumber (a movie I loved) was too cerebral for your tastes, check out Blades of Glory.
If you’re a high school boy, and need new material to impress your friends in the locker room, you might watch Blades of Glory.
If you named your dog Ron Burgundy and your cat Napoleon, after classic Will Ferrell and Jon Heder roles, then you probably have to see Blades of Glory.
If you think movies with sloppy drunks, smelly crotches, toilet-paper licking, jockstrap sniffing, upchucking, and an endless stream of juvenile sex jokes really rock, then you're sure to enjoy Blades of Glory.
If you’re looking for a movie that even with ClearPlay’s best efforts, is still filled with often-stupid and sometimes funny but always disgusting and gross-out humor, then don’t miss Blades of Glory.
To illustrate my point: Sam just read this review on my computer. His reaction? “Hey, that sounds good.”

Julie and I actually watched Blades of Glory on the plane ride to Hawaii. It was pretty dumb, but we laughed a lot....maybe due to the altitude.
