Awful, predictable, boring, unfunny, walked out...

Rating: Null/10 (19 July 2004)

I love movies. I'll see a really good movie nine times, paying full admission at the theater. I'm not really a critic. Give me a good story with interesting characters and I won't notice small editing flaws. I'm very willing to suspend disbelief and escape into the plot. I've walked out on 4 movies in my lifetime. This was one of them. I went to see it with two people who love to laugh at the movies. They usually get the whole theater laughing. No one laughed in Anchorman. It was truly awful. I am especially disappointed because my favorite movie critic, Gary Cogill, really liked it. He almost never recommends a bad movie, but this movie was poorly written and acted, had no plot, was completely predictable, and boring. We stayed 20 minutes to give it a fair chance.
