(Flash Review)Ever wonder what a former gymnast turns into after they finish their competitive life? This movie is sort of a character study of a successful gymnast who has broken out of a childhood that probably has been void of anything but gymnastics practices and following strict rules. She is extremely vulgar, lacks class, self-centered and has zero experience with boys. During this movie the former gymnast refuses to accept that her competitive days are over and she clings to the fact that she is the hero of her small hometown as she earned a gutsy bronze medal at the Olympics. She is lured into training a local star in hopes of amassing a large payday after the final competition. Will she try her best for the young star's success or will she sabotage this star to retain her local hero status? Overall, the movie doesn't need to be as vulgar as it is. The cursing is blunt and isn't even cleverly worked it as with The Big Lebowski for example. There are some odd and amusing moments but the movie is never laugh out loud funny. There is a very 'athletic' sex scene. The acting is solid and odd to see Bernadette in this role. Strange and profusely vulgar and a break from the typical mold.

The Bronze: An appealing comedy looking at a part of America only seen in Dan Bell's Dead Mall videos and during political campaigns about "Real America" . Gary Cole gives the standout performance as the put on dad sporting a Tom Skerritt mustache and the rest of the cast redeems themselves well. The film does bite off a bit more than it can chew trying to replicate two separate Olympic games and missing some easy targets involving NBC style coverage of same. Some might find the main character abrasive beyond redemption but the movie sells that redemption arc adequately. An overall fun film with some good laughs.

Haven't seen this type of movie since 1996 when Roy Munson (Woody Harrelson) as young bowler with a promising career ahead of him has his bowling hand crippled. The bittersweet humour makes up a large part of The Bronze. Plus goofing on Americas soft porn love affair with Women's gymnastics. Haley Lu Richardson as Maggie makes any straight male have an instant school boy crush versus the raw foul-mouthed Hope. The Yin & Yang of comedy that has worked so well in other movies like House Bunny .I'm happy to see it resurrected even if it misfires on a few jokes. The movie starts off mean but gradually grows into an oddball comedy classic like Dodge Ball
