Figure libre

Katelin Kingsford, an Olympic hopeful figure skater wants to train with a Russian figure skating coach. In order to go to the school that Natasha is at, Katelin gets a scholarship playing on the girls hockey team.

Watching a sequence of cute Disney movies, watching the second one about women's ice skating, another one of those about teen resilience with cute messages at the end, I have a soft spot for those water with sugar films from the early 2000s... It doesn't subtract anything, although they add in short, they are nice to pass the time... Extremely forced ending, and female rivalry still bothers me in these films... Cute and simple...

Yes, it was a sweet theme, that girls can choose for themselves who they want to be. And, it's always great to see a movie about figure skating, a sport that can always use more attention from commercial sponsors. But let's be real. No figure skater would ever be so stoooopid as to believe that she could use hockey skates to do a double toe jump. Since when do hockey skates have toe picks? Duh, duh, duh. Why couldn't they have had a more realistic movie about girls and sports? Disney has such a massive reach. I wish the producers had combined their commercial interests with a greater shot of reality. That would have been an entertaining *and* realistic movie. Not so much to ask, is it?

The movie was good, especially because of Spencer, i mean he is so hot! but i thought that jordin hinson didn't act that well. She was really fake and her voice was all high-pitched and stuff. So basically, the whole movie, i felt like shutting her up, but other than that, everything else was really good. :) I also liked Hollywood, she was pretty enough to make the lead. Which comes back to my point, what was that Barbie blond doing in the main role anyway? Can she actually skate, because is she can't, then Disney cast the wrong girl. They actually lost money because the reception was not as good as they expected, so they couldn't immediately make it for DVD, i bet it's because of her...

I am a figure skater and i love to watch figure skating movies. Out of all of the figure skating movies i found this move called GO FIGURE the best movie i have ever saw it was very very funny and the message getting across is if you really want something and your determined to pursuit it you would do what ever it takes just to fulfill your dreams like with Katelyn she is is figure skater and to be able to train with the best coach she has to become a hockey player and took the risk of switching ice roles.This movie is the movie that made me want to become a figure skater. Now because of this movie i have tried skating and it was my HIDDEN NATURAL GIFT in only 6 months i am an advanced skater in a figure skating club which is like a team past the lessons and the easy levels. And remember FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS do whatever it takes to make them come true

Though I found this movie very cute and had a good story line... it totally distorted what figure skating is all about. Many people think that figure skating is a independent sport which it is as you are not on a team but skaters tend to encourage each help each other and give others tips to succeed when they share ice time. There may be enemies between people but it's like that with every sport. The image they portray about the competition, coaches and friendships between figure skaters is simply inaccurate.
