I love books and I love the movies. I don't review all the movies that I have seen or books that I have read. My collection is pretty much all genres and quite random . But they, good or bad, have made me compelled to put in writing how it made me feel after having experienced them.

Fired Up. I think I should start this review by giving props first to a different movie. A movie that I loved and have seen literally a hundred times. One of the ultimate chick flicks . This film because of it's success caused all of America to finally take notice to a certain sport; Cheer leading. This movie unfortunately also inspired way too many terrible low budget sequels that never even came close in capturing the "magic" from its original. This epic tale is called Bring It On. It was such an influence to the genre Fired Up even paid tribute to the movie in the film .
I'm proud to announce that Fired Up is everything the other cheer leading movies are not. Yes, Fired Up is a cheer leading movie, which makes it a comedy. But for once a flick gives us a male perspective on the sport with the help from two high school male whores that are best friends, Nick and Sean. And although there are a lot of the usuals' for a cheer leading movie like boys with generic names, male cheerleaders, dumb blonde's, stunt doubles, lots of cheering, etc. Their are some newbies in this one folks. We get hilarious coaches, one that loves the word "shit" one that doesn't know hes gay yet, we get closet lesbians, croc loving losers and a plot where the ultimate goal isn't to win big but to score even bigger!
Our resident male whore students Nick and Sean, who have a healthy appetite for easy, stupid-as-hell girls come up with the idea to go to their schools cheer leading camp for a hot summer of non-stop hooking up. In order to do this they first have to convince the girls that want to join the squad. Since the squad quote "sucks balls", they are more than willing to accommodate these charismatic good looking tumblers onto their squad. They are all charmed except for miss Carly(Roemer) the squad captain that Sean ends up falling for. We follow the team through a three week summer camp that teaches Nick and Sean a lot of cliches about love and life it's a lot of fun.
Don't expect anything deep about this movie we will probably gain nothing having watched it but whats to be expected from cheerleaders anyway? This movie is non stop laughter and very much entertaining. I'm not about to go out and do back hand springs but this movie certainly me feeling corny enough to say that it got me fired up!
movie grade
b
worth watching?
 I'd say so
