It can be said that any Will Ferrell movie can be summed up by the following Mad Lib: Will Ferrel plays (character name). He plays (sport) and is the best in the world until (problem) causes him to fall from grace. Watch as he works back to the top of his game. He even sings (title of a song) and says the line "I will (do something uncomfortable) to your face." Watch for a cameo from (other member of the frat pack).
As far as the Will Ferrell plays sports genre goes, Simi Pro falls on the lower end of the scale. This time the sport is basket ball and the movie is set in the 70s to give Ferrel an excuse to have his hair big and his shorts small. If you loved Blades of Glory and Talladega Nights then you will probably have a good idea of what this movie is willing to offer. However, even then you might want to be prepared for disappointment.
At this point even Ferrell sees to realize that he seems to be making the same movie over and over again and wonders whats the point here when they could just go watch Talladega Nights again. At least then Ferrell looked dedicated to the character. Even the movie seems to forget that he is the main character every now and then, focusing instead on Woody Harrelson, who seems to not realize that he is in a comedy, as he pines for an old flame.
Ferrell still says lines that will probably end up on T-shirts, (If You have a small child use it as a shield)and is willing to have the camera pointed directly at his crotch, but the movie will probably end up in a Best of Will Ferrell collection a few years down the road and you can wait until then.
