If you really want a clue about this movie notice every negative review consists of about 1 line with no explanation of what would make it so bad. Simply put: if you're expecting a great story and some social commentary this is not the movie for you. Chances are though if you're watching it you're interested in neither. Will Ferrell is simply hilarious. He can make you laugh doing the simplest things and is probably my favorite snl cast member ever. Overall the movie is full of laughs (no you didn't see half of them in the trailers) and is only spoiled by occasional spots of seriousness. Thankfully it doesn't try to put a realistic story in but that wouldn't have fit anyway. Realism may not be the strong suit here but we want to laugh and it has plenty. |
