Downhill Racer and Dumb & Dumber combined., 12 January 2000
Author: yenlo from Auburn, Me

Keith Coogan portrays a goofy naive small towner who has an unusual knack for skiing and skiing fast. He heads off to compete in a ski race for a big money prize sponsored by a sports beverage that seems to be intolerable to drink. His competition is made up of Airheads, Egomaniacs, Mamas boys and the like. While this 1995 film is intended to be a comedy it has some accuracy in it. While watching the past three winter Olympics many of the ski racers from both this country and abroad exhibit many of the same traits as do the bizarre characters in this movie. There seems little argument that ski racers are perhaps the most spoiled, least disciplined, biggest whiners of any sport in the world with certainly the poorest sportsmanship qualities. That's why this film which is intended to be a comedy has some accuracy to it when depicting ski racers. If the films Downhill Racer and Dumb and Dumber were to be spliced together this would be the result.
