Funny bits, thin thread of a plot

Rating: 8/10 (27 July 2004)

This movie was not a life-changing experience. It was no American Beauty. But it had its share of really funny moments. If you enjoy spoilers, read the other comments, but you won't find any here.
I was dragged, kicking and screaming, to this movie. And it was what I expected: Really dumb. But there were some really really funny bits. No real plot to speak of, just enough to sorta kinda tie together the gags. Some gags were just plain stupid, and not funny to anybody older than 14. But some were simply hilarious. I had tears streaming down my cheeks at several times throughout the movie.
If you like stupid humour, you'll like Anchorman. If you don't, you won't.
