Will Ferrel doing Will Ferrel.

Rating: 9/10 (30 June 2020)

Whether you enjoy this film or not depends entirely on how you feel about Will Ferrel because he does what he does in every film - plays a developmentally-arrested man-child. He's like AC/DC - it works so keep doing it - nobody wants to see AC/DC doing an unplugged session or a jazz album.
Personally I find him hilarious so I loved the film. Plot-wise, despite being totally formulaic, it somehow still managed to ramble. You could tell what was going to happen and what the ending would be but none of that mattered because Will Ferrel's hilarious. Rachel McAdams is excellent and a perfect match for Ferrel's 'naive dreamer' shtick - romantic fools that you can't help warming to.
If you like Will Ferrel, you'll like this film. Simple as that.
