Spoonixel Amateur movie with Big budget

Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

areatw Silly, childish comedies like 'Anchorman' are always divisive. There are a lot of people who hate these types of films, while for others they turn out to be real guilty pleasures. For this one, I'm the latter. 'Anchorman' did crack me up on more than one occasion and I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. It's one of those that's just so stupid you must be dead inside if you don't crack a smile.The ridiculous plot and goofy characters mean that the laughs come thick and fast and, unlike a lot of other comedies of its kind, it never runs out of stupid situations and jokes. Will Ferrell was the sole reason I decided to give this movie a chance and he didn't disappoint, he was hilarious throughout as the anchor. For entertainment value, 'Anchorman' is great, but those who can bear silly humour and cheap gags should probably look elsewhere.

merelyaninnuendo Anchorman: The Legend Of Ron BurgundyYes, its an odd world, but hey it's their creation and they nail it pretty much and turns out its interesting and funny.

Wuchak Released in 2004 and directed by Adam McKay, "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy" stars Will Ferrell in the eponymous role as San Diego's top newscaster in the male-dominated broadcasting of the '70s, but that swiftly changes for Ron & associates (Paul Rudd, Steve Carell & David Koechner) when a talented, driven woman is hired for the newsroom (Christina Applegate). Vince Vaughn plays a rival anchorman.Howard Hawks supplied the simplest definition of a good movie: Three great scenes. No bad scenes. "Anchorman" gets the first part right with three great comedic sequences (the flute player at the club, the anchorman rumble and the climatic zoo sequence). Unfortunately too many jokes fall flat in between these episodes (Carell's outlandish lines in particular) and there's way too much infantile vulgarity. The first half hour is so bad in this regard I almost tuned out. Christina is stunning, though, and never looked better. Whether the positives outweigh the negatives is your call. The movie run 94 minutes (there are extended cuts, but I strongly recommend the shortest one). It was shot in San Diego, Los Angeles, Long Beach and Glendale, California. WRITERS: Ferrell & McKay. ADDITIONAL CAST: Jack Black, Ben Stiller and several others have cameos.GRADE: C-

SquigglyCrunch Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy follows a news anchor called Ron Burgundy (as the title suggests) who is considered something of a celebrity, when a new female anchor shows up and tries to one-up him. The movie is hilariously over-the-top in most every aspect of it. The acting, for starters, is obviously fake but supposed to be. Basically the entire main cast (Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, David Koechner, and Steve Carell) is completely over-the-top in their performances, but each one is kind of dumb in their own overdone way. It's hilarious and considering everyone is like this it's clear that that's the style the movie is going for, so it isn't distracting. The comedic aspect itself outside of the acting is fantastic. The movie is, again, way over-the-top. But it's a funny kind of over- the-top, where clearly everything is supposed to be taken with a grain of salt, or the characters are simply saying something so out there yet in character that you can't help but laugh. Overall Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy is great fun to watch. Is it actually a great movie? Probably not, but I loved it all the same. It's absolutely hilarious, and that's what a comedy is supposed to be, isn't it? In the end I would definitely recommend this movie.
