Decidedly average

Rating: 5/10 (19 September 2006)

Anchorman was a genius piece of satirical comedy that literally had me crying with laughter. There were of course pieces of the film that were slap-sick and I enjoyed them, unfortunately Tala Nights was missing that element of satire and that for me is why it was so average.
I enjoyed it for what it was, an average no brainer comedy flick, but thats all it was. Ferrell seemed almost apologetic in his delivery of some of the more obviously crude lines. If you are expecting Anchorman on Nascar then you will be disappointed. However there were a few very funny lines, and I cannot say I wasted an hour and a half, its just a shame it did not live up to the high standards Anchorman set.
