Perhaps overlooked?

Rating: 8/10 (6 January 2008)

When I first went to see this film, I went with three guys because we were bored and it was the only film showing. I had seen various trailers before viewing, and like other viewers didn't rate it. But, I found this film amazing! The constant battling of Ferrell and Heder over the minor issues of partnership (bunkbeds, sink space, manliness etc) were filled with amazing, seemingly improvised, lines! The chase scene was a masterpiece (listen for the hostage line!).
However, I asked the guys who I was with what they thought, and they said "It was OK. Not as good as Anchorman". That's were B.O.G's problem lies. The curse of Ferrell, making a darn good film seem tame, as viewers everywhere say "Anchorman was better". Is this excellent film forever going to be overlooked. Even my DVD copy states: "If you love this, you'll love Anchorman". It's a shame to think this film will be lost in the shadow of its predecessor.
