Review of Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006) by Tristramc. — 12 Aug 2006
Three of my co-workers saw this movie the first weekend like I did and thought it was hilarious. I thought it was completely inane; and not in the "thats what we were going for" kind of way. To me this movie was one failed goof after another and a clumsy enough comedy to make the directors previous film with Ferrell, Anchorman, seem as smart as Office Space.
Often at a film I have to pop out a sec and hotbox a cigarette (you know cause I'm addicted to the stuff) and hope I didn't miss anything important. With this movie I took my time and walked back hoping it had ended.
This film reminds of the true risk involved in coming to the theatre in the first place and slapping your $8 on the counter and makes you realize TBS serves a true public service to the world. in 8 months or so this movie should be playing there and you'll be able to see the comedy of errors for free.
