Summary
Michelle Trachtenberg plays Casey Carlyle, a brainy bookworm and physics geek. Michelle Christine Trachtenberg (born October 11, 1985) is an American Television and Film actress Physics (Greek Physis - φύσις in everyday terms is the Science of Matter and its motion. The word geek is a Slang term noting individuals as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person especially one who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things Casey decides to use her academic skill by pursuing a scholarship offered to the top students in the state. A scholarship is an award of access to an institution or a financial aid award for an individual student scholar for the purpose of furthering their Education The word student is etymologically derived through Middle English from the Latin second-type conjugation Verb "studēre" A US state is any one of the fifty subnational entities of the United States of America that share Sovereignty with the federal government For the scholarship, Casey must do a "personal" project about physics. While watching a figure skating competition featuring Sasha Cohen, Casey realizes that her hobby, ice skating, would make a perfect project for getting her scholarship. Alexandra Pauline "Sasha" Cohen (born October 26 1984) is an American figure skater. Ice skating is Traveling on Ice with skates, narrow (and sometimes parabolic) blade-like devices moulded into special Boots A study Initially, she watches other skaters at the local ice rink, but decides to try to improve her own skating by applying the physics and what she found out from analyzing other skaters. An Ice rink is a frozen body of Water where people can Ice skate or play winter sports She becomes exceptionally good at skating, even skipping two levels to get a Junior Pass.
Unsure of what she really wants, Casey has a difficult time juggling schoolwork, skating, and a job at a food stand to pay for her skating lessons. Her mother, played by Joan Cusack, realizes that her daughter's constant skating is affecting her schoolwork and tells her to stop skating. Joan Mary Cusack (born October 11, 1962) is an Academy Award -nominated American actress and Comedian. Casey refuses and goes to regionals with help from her friend, Gen, and her coach. A figure skating competition is a judged Sports Competition in Figure skating. In the end, Casey turns down the scholarship to Harvard to keep skating, and attains a silver medal in the Sectionals. Casey and her mom reconcile after two months, and Casey finally gains her mother's support.
Meanwhile, there is increasing tension between Casey's coach Tina Harwood (Kim Cattrall), a disgraced former skater, and her daughter Gen, played by Hayden Panettiere. Kim Victoria Cattrall ( rhyming with shall; born 21 August 1956) is an English born actress who grew up in Canada and now lives Hayden Leslie Panettiere (born August 21 1989 is an American actress and singer In this case, Tina, who manages the ice skating rink where Casey is training for competition, is putting her daughter into a strict training program and an even stricter diet. This irritates Gen, who has already begun to lose interest in skating and simply wants to be a normal teenager and student. Eventually Gen gets fed up and informs her mother and then Casey that she's quitting. Tina then becomes Casey's coach in the Sectionals.
At the sectionals, Casey performs well. In a triple loop jump, she slips and falls, but at the moment when she sees her mother in the spectators, that boosts her confidence and she gives an artistic performance.
She comes second in rank after Nikki Fletcher, and is going to the nationals.
Gen drops out after her mum Tina Harwood [Casey's coach] buys Casey new skates without braking them in and Casey slipped and fell.
Tina Harwood became Casey's personal coach and helped her get through nationals with a spectacular routine. Casey's mum was there to watch and congratulated her daughter as she realised being brainy isn't everything. And maybe her daughter could use her brainy talent combined with her skating to be a spectacular skater

Factual errors
- In the final standings posting of the Regional Championship, Worcester, Massachusetts is misspelled twice -- in the 1st place with Zoe Bloch, and the 6th place with Avril Dishaw -- it is spelled as "Wooster", Massachusetts. Signe Ronka (born April 23, 1988 in Riga, Latvia) is a Canadian figure skater. Worcester (ˈwʊstɚ is a City in the state of Massachusetts in the United States of America. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts ( is a state located in the New England region of the northeastern United States. There is no Wooster in Massachusetts. It is in Ohio. Ohio ( is a Midwestern state of the United States. As part of the Great Lakes region, Ohio has long been a cultural and geographical crossroads However, Worcester is pronounced "Wooster". The 8th place contestant is also listed as "Concorde", New Hampshire, while the town is Concord, New Hampshire. The city of Concord (ˈkɒnkərd often mispronounced as " Concorde " is the Capital of the state of New Hampshire in the United States
- The kids and Casey are automatically in Juvenile, which skips Pre-Preliminary, Preliminary, and Pre-Juvenile.
- Music that a skater skates to in the long program and short program must be instrumental, without a person singing. An instrumental is a Musical composition or recording without Lyrics or any other sort of Vocal music; all of the Music is produced by
- As the last skater at sectionals, Casey would not be skating on clean ice; nor would there be theatrical lighting.
- ESPN does not cover junior sectionals (or any junior events). ESPN, originally an acronym for Entertainment and Sports Programming Network, is an American Cable television network dedicated to
- In a real test to pass to the next level, the lights are on and there are no spotlights. There is a maximum of two people on the ice at a time, and there is nothing on the ice and no music. You cannot skip two levels, and there are two tests to pass for one level.
- The kids were learning Freestyle 2 and Freestyle 6 moves, not Snowplow Sam.
- While narrating her project video, Casey says "Now, I’m going to increase the centripetal force by tucking in my arms. The centripetal force is the external force required to make a body follow a curved path This will increase my moment of inertia, so I will spin faster. This article is about the moment of inertia of a rotating object. " Regarding moment of inertia, this is exactly backward. Bringing in the arms will reduce her moment of inertia. (It is true that she will spin faster, to conserve angular momentum. In Physics, the angular momentum of a particle about an origin is a vector quantity equal to the mass of the particle multiplied by the Cross product of the position In Physics, the angular momentum of a particle about an origin is a vector quantity equal to the mass of the particle multiplied by the Cross product of the position )
- At the party, Casey states that "velocity times momentum equals acceleration". In Physics, velocity is defined as the rate of change of Position. In Classical mechanics, momentum ( pl momenta SI unit kg · m/s, or equivalently N · s) is the product This is false; velocity multiplied by momentum yields only mv2, which is just kinetic energy multiplied by two. The kinetic energy of an object is the extra Energy which it possesses due to its motion This isn't an expression for acceleration, and is not fundamentally meaningful. In fact, length divided by square of time equals acceleration.
Criticism
Criticism of the film involved the fact that Casey went with ice skating, a job that lasts only at the age of 25, instead of Harvard. But fans of the film claimed that Casey just fallowed her dream but people still criticized it because Casey's love of skating could have been a phase.
Production and continuity errors
- Zoe Bloch's name is frequently spelled wrong.
- There are many times where a microphone is visible.
- There are many continuity errors regarding clothing and equipment.
- In the ending scene, When Tina and Joan (Casey's mom) are arguing, Tina says "only if she wins sectionals" but it should have been nationals because sectional had already been won (the 2nd competition where she got 2nd place). But it can be argued that because she did not win 1st place in that competition, even had Casey won the Nationals, they want her to skate a clean program to win next year.
- When Chantelle skated, she was spinning counter-clockwise, but then she did a clockwise Axel. The Axel is a Figure skating jump with a forward take-off It is named after the Norwegian skater Axel Paulsen, who first performed the jump in 1882
