Fired up review

Spencer Tracy jokes, though fairly funny, are not your everyday thing but Alvin Ailey and Nathan Lane crammed that feel into Fired Up ! Teen sex comedy now suffers from schizophrenic oddity.

The formula is an old one – of high school football stars trying to score a chick or two from the cheerleading camp and the involvements of a team of writers spanning over varying ages and sensibilities become evident. Narcolepsy unbound; so are misogyny, homophobia and half-hearted satiric mix of elements from American Pie, Porky’s and Bring It On, but without the on-screen actions that were galore in the three. Overall, an R-rated dirtiness in a PG-13 rating package, stamped with forced sexual euphemisms that deserves more of a sincere John Lennon quote rather than the characters boasting about being foolishly macho. An 89-minute of intolerable crude, sexual humor imbalanced with overtones of nudity and profanity; seems hypersomnia is defined in new lights.
