Review of Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013) by William C — 28 Jan 2015

Grade: Higher 6/10.

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues is a comeback from a news team we.

Thought we would never see again, but yet again they come rolling by as.

Random as ever. With gags galore and strange, incredibly crazy story.

Lines, this movie will make you laugh but also question just what is a.

Crude comedy. The cast are back in full and for me it is a welcome.

Return, I felt it all to be strongly an OK movie and here below is why.

So.

The story as said is random, constantly goes off track and when it.

Finally finds it way back on course it just makes you laugh(even if you.

May ask yourself why you are). The entire plot is fairly good as a.

Comedy movie can do but again, because of the spread of the random.

Jokes, you may also find the story is hard to tell if it is emotionally.

Committed. I especially enjoyed the beginning, maybe fades towards the.

End but in any case it is fun.

Will Ferrell returns with his news team and him especially does a good.

Job although those such as Steve Carrell really do well to not let him.

Take the film for himself. I found Paul Rudd even funnier in this than.

In the first movie and his sophisticated and cool personality yet.

Slightly stupid actions make him one of the stand out characters and.

Acting displays. I wasn't so sure on everyone, sometimes as it is a.

Comedy, the straight faced approach just seems fake and put on.

Adam McKay is known for producing quality work yet this does feel.

Almost a downgrade possibly form other projects, the jokes seem flat.

Sometimes and the way it is coordinated is well, very messy. Both McKay.

And Ferrell pitch in on the script and it is where most laughs come.

From, not that the physical comedy isn't funny just the little wording.

Added here and there make you chuckle for minutes after.

The main criticism comes from basically the jokes than then aren't.

Funny, lots are but some are just miss timed or very similar to a hum,.

The first movie. I wasn't too keen as said on the acting and that plays.

A major role in bringing down the films score but to be fair to the.

Acting, the majority of the films lower grade is down to stupid jokes.

I think if you enjoy the first one, this one is a must see and although.

Everyone will tell you the first is better, I still quite enjoyed this.

One and it has a lot to offer. If you want a very off the line comedy.

That never is quite predictable then this is for sure for you and.

Should have you on the floor laughing. Finally for those looking for a.

Sophisticated comedy movie then just don't, just....don't go near.

This(you will feel comedy has died, if you're a comedy perfectionist).

Overall I give this a higher 6/10 and it is Strongly OK, not quite near enough to.

Be pretty good but I will say it clears away from being just average.

Yes it is a return so welcomed but not the best reunion party, very odd.

Yet very funny and makes for one heck of a film, that I can assure will.

Split opinion with every single person who watches it.
