Will Ferrell demonstrates his comic genius once again and proves himself as a bankable movie star!

Rating: 8/10 (7 August 2006)

Will Ferrell's brand of humor is a funny thing, you either love it or hate it. Having been a fan of his for almost 10 years, I have loved most every movie he's been in. The great thing about Ferrell's movies are the hilarious one-liners that he delivers with such dead-pan sarcasm and dry wit. There are some great performances in this movie. I was surprised at how funny John C. Reily was. This was a great departure from the serious characters he usually plays. Ferrell's two you sons, appropriately named Walker and Texas Rangers had some great one liners as well. "Grandpa, I'm gonna jump on you like a spider monkey."Gary Cole was great as Reese Bobby, the alcoholic Will Ferrell has certainly proved he can carry a movie and is a bankable movie star, especially among the teen and young adult crowd.He is as funny now as he was four years ago when he left SNL. He can do all sorts of comedy and deliver a funny line like no one else. I think this movie will be the equivalent of what "Wedding Crashers" was last summer.People will be quoting this movie for the rest of the year. Like a lot of people, my favorite scene was the dinner table prayer. "Dear Lord baby Jesus, lying there in your ghost manger, watching your Baby Einsteins and learning your shapes and colors." If you are looking for a laugh-out loud comedy with great one-liners,check out Talladega Nights.
