    Product Description
    Will Ferrel (Old School Elf) is Ron Burgundy a top-rated 1970's San Diego anchorman who believes women have a place in the newsroom - as long as they stick to covering fashion shows or late-breaking cooking stories. So when ron is told he'll be working with a bright young newswoman (Christina Applegate) who's beautiful ambitious and smart enough to be more than eye candy it's not just a clash of two TV people with really great hair - it's war! Filled with wicked wit and slapstick humor Anchorman is the year's most wildly irreverent must-see comedy hit! System Requirements:Run Time: 98 minutes Genre: CHILDREN/FAMILY UPC: 097361314143

    Will Farrell followed up his star-making vehicle Elf, which matched his fine-tuned comic obliviousness to a sweet sincerity, with a more arrogant variation on the same character: Ron Burgundy, a macho, narcissistic news anchor from the 1970s. Along with his news posse--roving reporter Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd, Clueless), sports guy Champ Kind (David Koechner), and dim-bulb weatherman Brick Tamland (Steve Carell, Bruce Almighty)--Burgundy rules the roost in San Diego, fawned upon by groupies and supported by a weary producer (Fred Willard, Best In Show) who tolerates Burgundy's ego because of good ratings. But when Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate, View from the Top) arrives with ambitions to become an anchor herself, she threatens the male-dominated newsroom. Anchorman has plenty of funny material, but it's as if Farrell couldn't decide what he really wanted to mock, and so took smart-ass cracks at everything in sight. Still, there are moments of inspired delirium. --Bret Fetzer

    4 out of 5 stars "Oh, I'm in a glass case of emotion!"   June 30, 2009
    Eric S. Kim (Southern California)
    This is one of the most hilarious comedies from Will Ferrel and Steve Carell. I don't care if it looks dumb or it's not very smart, all I care about is that this film definintely makes me laugh. Carell steals the show as the mildly retarded Brick ("Fantastic!"), while Ferrel and Applegate make an interesting onscreen duo. And let's not forget some unexpected cameos in the middle of the film.

    Watch it, and you'll be in hysterics. And don't forget: always drink your scotty scotch scotch!



    4 out of 5 stars 60% of the time it's funny ALL the time   March 31, 2009
    M. B Cole (Las Vegas, NV)
    1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) is a man among men. He's got it all. Good looks, smooth moves, great suits, and the best job in the world as the number one lead Anchorman in San Diego. He even has his own entourage that consists of his fellow newsmen. Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd) is the on-scene reporter, as well as a self-proclaimed ladies man. Champ Kind (David Koechner) is the sports analyst and almost a `much too close' friend of Ron's. Then there is Brick Tamland (Steve Carell) who is the weatherman and, well, lets just say `not so smart' guy of the group. They are kings of the news in San Diego, until a Veronica Cornerstone (Christina Applegate) shows up. As Veronica is trying to work her way into the camera lens, the boys are trying to keep her out. They are doing quite well, until one day when Ron has a freak accident, which lets Veronica have center stage.

    The first time I saw this was with two of my best friends when I was driving through Texas and stopped for a few days of having fun in San Antonio. For most of the first half of the movie, I was barely laughing, and almost not enjoying the movie. And then about 35% to 50% into the movie, it clicked. I started to get the humor. And then the movie became hysterical. I was in tears on some parts. Now after the DVD came out, I even loved the movie more. From beginning to end, I find the whole movie hilarious. I honestly can understand why some might really hate this movie. The jokes can be very dumb at times. But once you find the humor in how the jokes are delivered, it becomes golden. The things I find myself laughing at the most are how the lines are delivered, or how some of the words are annunciated. The over the top acting also helps out a lot. It's just VERY silly. The improv lines are great also. When Ron and Veronica are smiling on camera and talking, the sound is muted for the audience in the movie while the credits role, but we as the viewers get to hear them hate on each other such as Ron saying "I'm going to hit you right in the baby maker, yep, right in the ovaries". The movie has a slew of cameos from some very funny actors as well. Jack Black, Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, Luke Wilson, and even Seth Rogen (not a funny part at all really, but it's funny seeing him just be a plain old camera man with like 2 lines).

    In the end, if you love this kind of silly comedy, then definitely own this. It never gets old.

    P.S. - I own the double disk feature, and have yet to watch "the adventures of Ron Burgundy continue" feature yet. It's supposedly a ton of extra stuff they cut out from the movie. Enough to make a completely different movie. I fast forwarded through it enough to see there is like a bank heist and everything. So I'll give it a look-see sometime soon once I get the urge to watch some more Ron Burgundy. Then I'll just update my review with its review.



    1 out of 5 stars Incredibly bad, even for Will Ferrell   March 26, 2009
    J. Davis (San Diego, CA United States)

    This is so bad I don't want to even waste time trashing it. It is moronic and juvenile. If you like this movie, you should be committed. I like Christina Applegate, but not enough to see this garbage. I'm also disappointed that a legitmate actor like Paul Rudd lowered himself to be in this bomb.


    5 out of 5 stars THE BEST WILL FERRELL FLICK EVER.   March 2, 2009
    Jose Lopez (Miami,Florida USA)
    This is the best Will Ferrell Film Ever. The King of Kings. Beautiful. Brutally funny.


    5 out of 5 stars Commentary Delivers Equal Amount of Laughs   February 19, 2009
    Adam M. Pope
    The commentary track for Anchorman is filled with the same brand of nonsense appreciated by fans of the film, it will have you rolling.

    I finally got around to watching the film with commentary and it was a really fun ride. Rarely is the film itself discussed, instead questions about which cuss words/phrases will be "bleeped" out and random visits from unrelated celebrities fill the time.

    The biggest laughs come from the visit of a "bitter" Dave Koechner who rants about how he was cut out of the film and wants to re-edit it himself since he is now reduced to selling shoes on the side of the road with his children. It was almost more enjoyable than the entire movie and literally had me crying.

    Just a shout out to those who don't make full use of the special features that come with their DVDs check out this commentary for a very "unique" experience.
