Fans steal show, player in ‘Celtic Pride’ By Brian Priesman Film Critic The 1996 NBA playoffs arc right around the comer (Thank God!) and to commemorate this joyous time of year, Damon Wayans, Eton Aykroyd, and Daniel Stem have teamed up to show just what can happen when fans’ de votion gets out of hand. “Celtic Pride” tells the story of Mike O’Hara (Stem) and Jimmy Flaherty (Aykroyd), two die-hard Celtic fans who are as tense as fans can get. In other words, they’re eagerly await ing their beloved team’s entrance into Game 7 of the NBA finals against an awesome Utah Jazz team. After the Celtics’ crushing loss in Game 6, Flaherty and O’Hara sojourn to a local bar where the Jazz’s star player, Lewis Scott (Wayans), is cel ebrating. Originally, the two just plan to get Scott so drunk that he can’t play the next day, but fate has other ideas. The next morning, they wake up in Flaherty’s apartment to find Scott tied Film: “Celtic Pride” Director: Tom De Cerchio Stars: Damon Wayans, Daniel Stem, Dan Aykroyd Rating: PG-13 (language) Grade: B Five Words: Basketball was never this fun up. They assume that, in their drunken states, they kidnapped him to save their favorite team. And from there, the hijinks start rolling as Flaherty and O’Hara learn that Scott is as keen a competitor in kidnapping as he is in basketball. Aykroyd and Stem are hysterical together as the bumbling pair of fans. They create a unique chemistry that showcases both of their wonderful comedic talents. And Wayans, who started as a co median and sketch-comedy performer, is wonderful as the well-endorsed Jazz player. Granted, the plot is pretty predict able and many of the jokes indulge in cheap shots, but “Celtic Pride” is a wacky, fun comedy and Wayans looks as if he really should play in the NBA. Heck, maybe the real-life Celtics could use a new power forward.
