One of my favorites....you have to be a Will Ferrell and Steve Carrell fan after watching this movie, if you weren't already....I love lamp.

this movie is F***in hilarious at first i thought i wouldnt like it but bought it and loved it ill admit that this movie has stupid humor but i like stupid humor its hard for most people to comrehend stupid humor and why its funny i love the part where well ferrel gets on stage and starts playing that one instrument and gets carried away with it and even goes into the ladies room and continues to play it. If u like weird and strange humor i suggest u go see this this is a must see movie.

I didn't like this movie at first but watching it on cable I learn to love some of the lines. Good stuff.

This was a comedy, thats news to me because I found no humor in it what so ever. Its typical Will Farrel fare a lot flailing about and badly delivered dialog. Don't waste your money renting the DVD its just no worth it.

A totally unappealing, rotten comedy that lacks heart--and mind. The isolated moments of wit (Such as the "When In Rome..." confusion) are drowned-out in the all-too-typical stupidity associated with most SNL alums. The raunch factor is quite high for a PG-13 movie (including one particular sight gag that was completely unfunny) and there is not a single likable character in the entire movie. It competely lost me when the kicked the dog off of the bridge. Mean-spirited, uncreative, and mindless--Anchorman needs to be cancelled from the realm of cinema altogether.

I thought Brick was absolutley hilarious - he had me in stitches with his I ate a whole red candle line :) However, i must agree with the general consensus that this film was slightly overrated - even though i did enjoy most of it :) My sugestion would be - if you have not already - to watch Anchorman and make up your own mind about it. It seems the general public have a love it or hate it opinion - so which side are you on? Sorry to all those who don't agree - but i'm gonna go with Love it. - KG

Will Ferrell SUCKS.

I thought this movie was HILARIOUS. Anybody who is a fan of Will Ferrell's SNL days will really enjoy this film.

This movie was tremendously overrated. Nobody should sit through this movie for any reason. I must admit that I did chuckle...twice.

One of the best movies I ever saw. I think it's so much as the atmosphere that I liked. Very funny, a lot of memorable quotes like every movie should have, and lovable characters, (Brick: I would like to extend to you, an invitation to...to the pants party..) Will Ferrell fits Ron Burgundy PERFECTLY and it gave a warm delight when surprise guests appeared (Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller [Como estan bietches?!]) 5 STARS!

Honestly, I just watched the movie because of Christina Applegate. I always thought she was very funny. This movie wasn't so bad, it made me laugh here and there. Brick was hilarious. It's good for a rental.

I get to watch movies for free, and apparently you get what you pay for with this one. Along with Around the World in 80 Days and Gods and Generals, this is one of the worst movies I've seen in the last several years. It's just further proof that SNL alumni are almost incapable of making good movies anymore.

Thoroughly enjoyed Anchorman. Will Ferrell is on a hot streak. Old School and Elf were good movies, but Ferrell's portrayal of Ron Burgundy kept me in stitches throughout the flick. The movie did a great job in placing you in the 1970s (unlike the awful That '70s Show, which has no clue on what the '70s or humor is). It also captures the soul of San Diego, though some of the backdrops of the city were of recent vintage and were kind of an anachronism. The love/hate/love relationship of Burgundy and co/rival anchorwoman Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate looks great) is a riot. But the real hilarious stuff occurs with Burgundy's downright insane on-scene reporter, sports guy, and weatherman. The fight scene between Burgundy's crew and the rival station news teams (watch for A-List cameos) was one of the funniest fight scenes ever staged. The DVD has a ton of special features. Ferrell's music video of Afternoon Delight is spit your food out funny.

The Best Movie I ever saw, You Stay Classy San Diego!!!!!

I am not too big a fan of Will Ferrell, but somehow this film managed to entertain me. It was pretty silly throughout, but there was some cheap humor that made for a few good laughs here. Christina Applegate and Ferrell have great on-screen chemistry and made this film fun to watch.

A dumb-ass movie, appealing to dumb-asses. About as funny as a rubber crutch.

Had its moments, but was seriously overrated before its release. It's one of those comedies that use stupid humor for a cheap laugh, and yes, it did deliver that. I loved the Brick character, that cracked me up every time. One of those stupid-funny movies to rent and watch with the guys.

**Update 8/10/04: I just saw this movie again 2 nights ago. By the beard of Zeus, it changed my life. Again. *OC: If there was a vendor selling Anchorman the dvd for $75 a pop in the theater lobby I would have picked up two on my way out. In case I lost one. This is top-five comedy quality on an all-time list. I'm not kidding, it's right up there with the likes of Naked Gun, Airplane, and Caddyshack. Ron Bergundy - jazz flutist, great hair, scotch-lover. A force to be reckoned with.

This was one of thee WORST movies I had ever seen. I normally like Will Ferell but this was inane and utterly UNFUNNY. It was not offensive in the usual Hollywood sense of too much violence and sex but it I was offended that they tried to pass this off as comedy..do not wast your time or money

I love this movie almost as much as Ron Burgandy loves scotch! If you are into the 'Zoolander' and 'Old School' type of comedy, this one is a must see! My friends and I have already began to quote our favorite lines. Although Ferrell hit home with this movie, it was Steve Carrell who kept me laughing. Go get your tickets NOW!!

I'm going to punch you in the ovaries. Will Ferrel is hilarious and this movie is great. It did feel slow at points, but it was worth it to sit through those parts. I don't think I have ever laughed as hard in a theater as I did during the big fight scene. Brick you killed a man.

Worst movie ever. Take me back to Old School!!! Pleeeeeeeeease!

Without a doubt the biggest piece of junk to come out of Hollywood so far this year. Complete garbage all the way. Will Ferrel's horrendous acting never ceases to amaze me, he just gets worse and worse every movie he comes out with, and this movie is no different than all the other trash he has accomplished thus far. The storyline was loosely based on women's rights in television news. Christina Applegate barely tried in this movie, but I can understand why. (I wouldn't do very good acting next to Will Ferrel either.) She must have owed someone a favor, otherwise I would never be able to understand why she would even be willing to star in such a piece of junk. Do not waste your time or money...it is really awful...

The pnly good character was the dog.....

Best ever but the commercial showed the least funny parts so its great
