College Girl, a bunch of her guy friends and I went to see this when it first came out. It was hilarious and skewers everything from adoption (I didn't know this) (only for a few minutes, but tastelessly, involving being adopted only for his skating prowess, then disinherited as an adult and left at the side of the road) to incest and figure skating, with the obligatory bathroom scene(s) along the way.
It stays just this side of being too much.
It kept you wondering how they filmed it to look so real. (unseen wires)...
It did us all good to laugh so hard. It's a gift to be able to do this without crossing the line into raunch humor.
It might be something to enjoy on DVD.
