An I missing something?

Rating: 1/10 (13 December 2006)

Please, will someone explain to me WHEN Will Ferrell became a comedic genius? Are the French writing all his good reviews, getting us back for Jerry Lewis? This had to be the most overblown stupid movie I have spent money on in years! I wouldn't even lend this to my friends. Oh, there are some good (not great) moments, all involving Sacha Baron Cohen as the French protagonist the Ferrell's Rickey Bobby, but as for the rest of the movie, I felt no real urge to laugh at all. As a matter of fact, with the truly horrible way most of the characters are written, I found my fist balling up to hit them more often than anything. If this was supposed to be a parody, it badly missed the mark. I am no NASCAR fan, but if I was I would probably hunt Ferrell down (he is a co-writer of this piece of crud) and zap him with a Taser!
