Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)
Fade to a point where it's just sad
Very few laughs; sparse here and there, nothing substantial that can create any potential euphoric effect where you can just let yourself go. The only time I truly laugh was when Ferrell tries to convince Applegate that he wants to date her "professionally", but he has a huge erection at the same time. After that point, the movie is going down the drain and into the sewers.
Will Ferrell is soooooo disappointing in this movie. Not that I ever expected much out of him, but after Elf and Old boy, there was some light at the end of the tunnel. He comes back with a pathetic performance in a miserable movie. This is as bad as "A Night at the Roxbury". Ferrell is just the new flavor of the day in the comedy business. He seems to be taking advantage of it and wants to cash on it. I guess it is economically defendable. But artistically, thanks for the warning... For Applegate, well, unfortunately, there isn't much to say about her career so far. She is equal to herself in this movie enough said.
It just makes me sad to think about the waste of time and resources put into this type of creation. Unless your IQ matches the one of a monkey and a fart well amplified stills makes you laugh no matter what, you will not be able to enjoy this movie
Hot Pursuit (1987)
Funny, light and Cusack at his best
This is the movie that made me fell for John Cusack's acting. He has so much energy, so much presence in this movie, it's impossible not to like his character! Robert Loggia was also very good and the chemistry between the two makes the movie worthwhile on its own.
This is an excellent action comedy: It's light, funny and enjoyable. A little comedy from the 80's, with no pretension whatsoever other then to entertain you and make you laugh
Unfortunately, the end is not that great. Those were the times when the good guy had to defeat all of its enemies within the last 10 minutes of the film. Nevertheless, the movie is entertaining and deserves to be seen.
