This movie was great. Its so funny. People may think it's like Ice Princess. Maybe it is. But I think this movie is better. Jordan Hinson and the cast had great roles that fit them perfectly. Lines like "They are girls. Just like me except bigger, meaner, with unconditioned hair" made me laugh so hard. The plot is great. One thing that Ice Princess doesn't have is a hockey team. Making Katelin choose between hockey and ice skating was genius. The only odd thing was the relationship between Katelin and Spencer. He is older than her but its still cute to see that kind of relationship form.
Overall, the movie is 10 out of 10.

Great movie
Totally delightful
Forget the 'inaccuracies' and unrealism - of course they are present, this is a Disney film for crying out loud. This film portrays the courage, hard work and athleticism of both figure skating and ice hockey and with a beautiful guest appearance by Kristi Yamaguchi who is an icon. It is also a challenge to the sport to move past the Tonya Harding image which is still alive and kicking and support one another as a team.
But let's not take it too seriously this is a fun movie about skating with lovely family values and a great portrayal of the richness friends and family bring to our lives once we move past stereotypes and judgments. I really enjoyed it.
"You're a Twirl Girl"
Disney Studios produced this nice family film about young Jordan Hinson who wants more than anything to be a champion figureskater. Russian skating instructor Cristina Rose offers to take her on, but she has to get into this prep school where she is and the only way is through a girl's hockey scholarship. And not field hockey, the real deal on ice.
The coach owes Rose and takes Hinson on without actually intending to play her and the other girls on the team resent her at first and they don't even know she's really a figureskater whom they disparage as a twirl girl. But figureskating has taught her a few moves and the fact is she combines her worlds.
We even get an appearance from real life Olympic medalist Krista Yamaguchi who is Hinson's idol. All in all a nice story about a young figureskater.
