Dodgeball: Grab Life by the Ball
April 10th, 2008 by davidsesin
Dodge Ball is a really interesting and fun sport, you always have to be active and fast. This game has 5 players in each team, to win the game you have to eliminate all the players in the other team. To eliminate them, you have to toss a ball at the opponent. Another way to eliminate a player is by catching a ball they throw at you. The only way to get the eliminated players to play again, is by catching the ball. As I said before if you catch the ball, the player that threw it is out, but also a member from your team goes back on into the game.About 3 years ago, this movie was on the theaters. I was really excited because I liked to play this game a lot. The movie Dodge Ball, was a really good movie; it had comedy and suspense. What I found really funny was Ben Stiller, usually he is the good guy in the movies, but in this movie he was the bad guy. Also his long blond hair made me laugh, because he normally has it short and black. I think that in this movie Vince Vaughn should be the bad guy, because he has a more mean and serious look. Well, the movie was also great just how it was made. It starts, with this guy called Peter Le’ Flor, he is a really irresponsible guy that owns a little gym called Average Joe’s. He is a good guy that has many friends in the gymnasium. In his gym he had not payed taxes for about 13 years, later on they warned him that he owed 50 thousand dollars. If he didn’t pay they would force him out of the place. His friends start thinking of a way to pay the fines, they tried in some fund raisers, but they were use less. A friend had the idea of playing in a Dodge Ball tournament all the way in Las Vegas, and the grand price was 50,000 dollars. They trained Dodge Ball for some time, but they were still really bad. To get in the tournament they had to beat these girl scouts who wanted to get in the tournament too. The girls won, but the judges found that one of the girls was using hormones, so they eliminated the girl scouts. Average’s Joe team went to Las Vegas, but they saw the owner of Globo Gym. The owner of Globo Gym, who was called White was participating with really good players. He was participating so Average’s Joe gym couldn’t get the money to win the tournament. During the tournament Average Joe’s gym and Globo Gym win all the games, and they both go to the final. The night before the game, White bribes Peter by paying him 100,000 dollars. The deal was to give away his gym.The day of the big game, Peter’s friends were ready to play, but they didn’t have enough players. Right before the referee called Globo Gym the as the winner, Peter came to the game. They have a really hard game, but at last Average Joe’s gym wins by sudden death. White tells everybody about the deal they had last night, but right after that some guys of a casino come and deliver 5 million dollars. The night before that Peter bet the 100,000 dollars on his team. So at the end he buys White’s Gym and he resolves all the billing problems he had before. I think this movie was great, really funny, and entertaining.
