Genius.

Rating: 10/10 (15 September 2004)

This is the most inspired dumb comedy to come our way in many a year. While
the past few years have son tons and tons of stupid comedies, such as Dude,
Where's My Car? and things of that ilk, they all lack with this movie has in
spades, inspiration and joy. The movie firmly establishes it's silly and
occasionally surreal tone early on, and sticks with it all the way through. For example, the ending of this film has to be one of the dumbest endings of all time, and yet, it works perfectly, as though there's no other way the film could have ended. And the actors are all top-notch, with Ferrell giving his best effort to date, and Paul Rudd and Steve Carrell also kicking ass. All in all, this was the
funniest movie of the summer, (She Hate Me is a close second...but for different reasons entirely...), and one of the funniest movies we've seen in a long time.
