Anchorman 2 (agree)

This is in response to Ty Burr of the Boston Globe's review of Anchorman 2.

I agree that Anchorman 2 is an overload of silliness as Burr  put it.  The movie gave me exactly what I expected which was 2 hours of mind-numbing funny ignorance.  The success of the original Anchorman was composed of exactly the same thing without the added pressure and expectations on Mckay and Ferrel to produce a winner because no bar had previously been set.  As with all sequels the challenge is to come close to the original and Anchorman 2 pretty much followed the same script.

I also agree that there was just entirely too much movie!  I could have done without about 45 mins of the film and absolutely 20 mins of the forced laughter and still enjoyed the production.  I do think that the film could have been a bit more cohesive and at times it felt as if I was part of the editing process or watching the deleted scenes at the end of a DVD.

But all in all Will Ferrel delivered with Anchorman and with the bevy of one-liners I'm sure just as with the first film that over time and especially in light of the new "medicinal" laws in places such as Colorado that over a period of time this film  after repeated home viewings will also attain a similar status.  Enjoyable, Fun, and classic Ferrel.
