Thank God for Joey!!, 16 February 2007
Author: calebblanton from United States

Grizzly Adams seemed burned out and uninspired and was not convincing as a coach. There was no coherence between the scenes and overall, this movie seemed quite disjointed. Honestly, I would have rated this movie 1 star if it wasn't for the character Joey, played by Curtis Socha. While his part was fleeting at best, he literally stole the show. Beyond his hilarious facial expressions, I was particularly struck by his impressive posturing - he struck me as an authentic figure skater, not some B-movie actor. His role should have been expanded to include some skating, I bet he would have been outstanding.

The movie as a whole was pretty terrible, but all I have to say is "Thank God for Joey!"
