The Ringer (2005)

★★★☆☆

Steve Barker has a problem: his illegally employed servant is taken to the hospital after having his fingers cut off in a lawnmower accident. Now, to pay back the hospital debt, he and his uncle must rig the Special Olympics. Barker must act handicapped so that he could win the money to save his servant and his uncle. The problem is, he begins falling for his female aid. I enjoyed this film because it doesn’t really make fun of handicapped people, but rather shows them as intelligent and gifted people. It combined humor, character and a great supporting cast. Although it did seem a bit too fast paced. Otherwise, it was a fun movie.
