Shawn (D’Agosto) and Nick (Olsen) are stars of the high school football team. They also have a way with the ladies. They decide to skip football camp to attend cheerleading camp. They figure that there will be very few guys besides them and they can work their way through the girls. Carly (Roemer), the captain of the squad knows that they are up to no good, but can do nothing to stop them. One thing she doesn’t plan on is Shawn falling for her.

“Fired up!” is not a particularly good movie. Most of the funniest parts are shown in the previews. Some of the acting is pretty painful to watch. The leads, playing high schoolers, are even pretty far from their high school days. This movie would actually have benefited from an R rating, but to attract a bigger audience, it is tamed down to a PG-13. I cannot recommend this one.
