Pretty damn funny
19 October 2004
Will Farrell is quickly becoming one of my favorite comedians. As much as I liked his work on Saturday Night Live, it is on the big screen where he truly belongs. His work in Old School and Elf prove that he is very much capable of making the leap from television to motion picture projects. I can now add Anchorman to that list. Anchorman is completely stupid and rather predictable, but I couldn't help but laugh out loud several times throughout. Farrell is the man of the hour here, but he is supported by some truly inspired performances, notably Steve Carell. Add in some great celebrity cameos, and you have perhaps the year's funniest movie thus far. I didn't know quite what to expect going in, but Farrell and his news team delivered.
