'Fired Up!' web reviews

In Will Gluck's "Fired Up!," two popular high school friends decide to ditch football camp for cheerleader camp. Nicholas D'Agosto, Eric Christian Olsen and Sarah Roemer star, and this is what the Web's critics have to say about the comedy:

• Katey Rich at CinemaBlend: "As much as I would have liked to, there's just no checking your qualms at the door and riding along with 'Fired Up!,' as it manages to be unfunny and horrifying at nearly every turn."

RopeOfSilicon's Brad Brevet: "On a whole, the good outweighs the bad in 'Fired Up!,' much to my surprise and satisfaction."

FilmSchoolRejects' Robert Levin: "It’s all simple, least common denominator stuff with a cast of characters too moronic to inspire any empathy."

Cinematical's Jeffrey M. Anderson: "And thus all the jokes, and the plot, go about halfway, then pull back in shame -- unless they're gay jokes, in which case anything goes."

LatinoReview's Ron Henriques: "Though its a complete mess, there have been worse teen comedies than 'Fired Up', but it just feels like lazy filmmaking."

You must be 12 and lacking a brain, because none of the above is my personal opinion, for starters. Stay in school Mary!
