Hilarious low brow movie- Steve Carell steals the show

Rating: Null/10 (10 July 2004)

Anchorman seems a lot like a bunch of sketch comedies thrown together, which makes sense because it's written by SNL alumni. As long as you're willing to forget this things are great. Will Ferrell and Stever Carell make the movie. Much of what they do is improv (as you see from the unchosen clips shown at the end of the movie), and they pull it off flawlessly. In fact, the parts that are clearly improv (the prank calls and the insults) are funnier than the rest of the movie. This movie is also full of great cameos, such as Jack Black (in a few seconds of footage dog lovers won't forget), Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughan, Ben Stiller, and, believe it or not, Tim Robbins. I highly reccommend this one.
