You must have seen the trailer by now. They’re spending a lot of money on TV commercials to hype the thing.

Looks lame. Most of the good laughs are in the promo reel, I suspect.
The only review I’ve seen concurs:
… it’s about a pair of high school football players (played by 31-year-old Eric Christian Olsen and 28-year-old Nicholas D’Agosto) who opt out on their team training in order to tag along with the all-female cheerleading squad to their cheer camp/competition.
… I’m pretty certain that we’re looking at a PG-13 here (yes, they can say ‘s–t’ all they want with that rating). Heck, if it were actually R, then this film’s audience would have to ask a parent or legal guardian to come with, and that’s just cruel to consider.
Either way, Fired Up drops down on March 20, 2009. To quote one of the sassy cheerleader foes: B. F. D.
