Finally, a Comedy that's funny and original!

Rating: Null/10 (1 January 2005)

Anchorman (PG-13) 2004 Every once and awhile we come across a comedy that is actually funny. And in this case, somewhat original. This will truly go down as the Blazing Saddles or Monty Python of our time. The characters in this movie is what caused it's great success. Mainly Will Ferrell, but Paul Rudd along with Christina Applegate all give hilarious and great performances. Just the way these actors deliver the lines will have you laughing on the floor. There are a few dull or stupid moments that just don't work, but that rarely happens. Anchorman has given us future one-liners that will go down in history. It reminds me of a great SNL sketch that can go on forever, and never get boring. Truly one of the best comedies of the year. Beats out Dodgeball by a long stretch, and we probably won't see something this good for awhile. ***(out of 4)
