This is the best movie Ben Stiller has been in all year.

Rating: 10/10 (9 July 2004)

I will say this. Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy is, without even the slightest hint of doubt, and with not a single exception, the greatest movie ever created in the history of all the universe and all parallel universes. It is flawless. It is so great in every single way that not even the mighty Christopher Walken could make it better. If this movie is not held up high as a timeless classic of comedy, if not the absolute epitome of all things right with the world and good in life, for decades upon decades to come, I will personally see to the world's destruction. This I swear to you.
This movie is not only hilarious beyond belief (Steve Carell steals every scene he is in), but it actually manages to do something no other comedy has ever done before. Ever. It manages to tell a really good story without the story ever getting in the way of the comedy. There isn't a single scene that isn't funny because it's too busy advancing the plot. Either the jokes enhance the plot, the plot enhances the jokes, or they both enhance each other in some sort of weird plot/joke 69 orgy of greatness.
~MechaSlinky... Baxter should win an Oscar. I don't care which category.
