Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
cynthiapaquette This is a great film starring the hilarious Will Ferrell who plays Ron Burgandy the manly news anchor broadcasting live from the 1970s San Diego. The film looks great and the recreation to a time gone by is incredibly accurate. Of course it is the performances that will have you in splits and everyone from Paul Rudd to Steve Carrell is outstanding, as is Christina Applegate. Will Ferrell however towers over everyone-this is his movie and Ron Burgandy is a character I know is bound to become legendary.
MC Paolo This was a funny movie. The satire wasn't very biting or anything but it's just a ridiculous comedy about ridiculous characters. One of the movies where Will Ferrell is the lead but doesn't annoy or "get old" to me, and the supporting cast is really great. The dog scene made me cough up my soda. Not much more to it than that and the story is simple but it was definitely funny which is all this movie needed to be. The sequel was very disappointing though.
zianimustafa I saw him yesterday and made me very puzzled in his assessment Was the average level or good Is the comedy in it good or boring On the other hand, I am sure of the quality of performance and what I saw in the film Is the emergence of most American comedy stars such as Ben Stiller ..... The story was pretty good and the script very coherent Some of the footage was funny and full of humor The performance of Steve Carl was the best actor knows very well how to make you enjoy all A word he utters and every movement he makes and what saddens me is to give him the space he deserves here....bad thing 6/10
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.
