good absurd comedy

Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) is fired while his wife Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate) gets promoted to be the first female network anchor. He forces her to choose and six months later, he's washed up getting fired from Sea World. Then he's approached by Freddie Shapp (Dylan Baker) to be the anchor for a new 24 hours news network GNN. Ron reunites the news team of Champ Kind (David Koechner),Brick Tamland (Steve Carell),and Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd). Jack Lime (James Marsden) is the star anchor of the channel and the guys are relegated to the graveyard shift. Veronica has a new boyfriend Gary (Greg Kinnear).

This has a bad joke early on with Drake as a soul brother catcalling Veronica. It's weirdly unfunny and sets a bad tone. Drake is simply the wrong guy to do that joke. It's like a puppy trying to flirt. It's short-lived and the movie recovers once the team gets reunited. The guys are hilariously ridiculous. The stupider they act, the funnier they are. Of course, there is the lost of discovering something original. But it's still fun to see these characters again. Although the final battle does go on for too long. It loses a bit of steam.

Burgundy is back

Anchorman 2 arrives almost a decade after the release of the first film as it acquired a cult reputation.

Its more of the same as we move to the 1980s and the launch of 24 hours cable news channel which is ripe for satire and initially it starts of promisingly enough and is worth a few good laughs.

Ron Burgundy is back with the old team which also includes Steve Carrell's Brick. However Carrell's star has ascended since the first film so we have a subplot where Brick has a love interest who is just as stupid as him but it feels flat.

Burgundy is also getting divorced from his wife in this film but you realise that the plot follows parts of the first film where Ron and Veronica had an up and down relationship.

There is plenty of silliness just like the first film but a lack of quotable lines although the chicken shack selling fired bat as the chicken of the cave was funny. However the film loses gas midway and never fires up again until you get even a bigger finale of star cameos.

SUPER CREEPY AND UNORTHODOX

Ron (Will Ferrell) gets terminated from his job and leaves his wife. He is offered a job from upstart GNN 24 hour news. He assembles his news team etc. etc. etc. The plot is not important. The film is fairly simple and it is more like a connection of skits and one liners than a real situation comedy. You could pretty much start watching the movie at any time and it wouldn't matter. The humor, while crude at times, was original and funny. Sure there were a few scenes I would have cut, the condom selection and racist dinner, but there were too many scenes which had me laughing out loud. Excellent support cast.

Some lines from the film:

"Bats: Chicken of the cave." "He wanted to donate his organs before he died." "Remember ten years from now..." "He bottle fed and raised a shark..."

This is high caliber low brow humor. Crude and racial at times.

Parental Guide: 2 F-bombs. No nudity. Brief comical sex scene. Crude sexual talk.
