Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Will Farrell followed up his star-making vehicle Elf, which matched his fine-tuned comic obliviousness to a sweet sincerity, with a more arrogant variation on the same character: Ron Burgundy, a macho, narcissistic news anchor from the 1970s. Along with his news posse--roving reporter Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd, Clueless), sports guy Champ Kind (David Koechner), and dim-bulb weatherman Brick Tamland (Steve Carell, Bruce Almighty)--Burgundy rules the roost in San Diego, fawned upon by groupies and supported by a weary producer (Fred Willard, Best In Show) who tolerates Burgundy's ego because of good ratings. But when Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate, View from the Top) arrives with ambitions to become an anchor herself, she threatens the male-dominated newsroom. Anchorman has plenty of funny material, but it's as if Farrell couldn't decide what he really wanted to mock, and so took smart-ass cracks at everything in sight. Still, there are moments of inspired delirium. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - Christina Applegate At Her Best
Anchorman is a hilarious movie about a successful anchorman(Will Farrell) newscaster in San Diego who later gets his reputation tarnished by his sidekick(Christina Applegate).
In addition to why I liked this movie so much, MARRIED WITH CHILDREN's Christina Applegate was sexy as usual and better looking and the most talented I have ever seen her throughout her whole acting career and I think Christina Applegate did an astonishing performance in this movie as well, not to mention she was ...

Rating:  - A very long SNL
If you are a fan of Christina Applegate, maybe it's worth watching. As usual, she is just astonishing. I also liked the 70's soundtrack. But that's it. Just sketches after sketches. The one where he plays the flute in a restaurant is too long and not funny. I don't know why people like Will Farrell's movies.
Rating: - AWESOME
if you have any sense of humor at all, you'll like this movie. this movie consists of will ferrel, steve carrell, vince vaughn and luke wilson. if you like random comedy, such as talk about hand grenades, tridents and guys on fire, then watch this movie.
Rating: - Funniest movie of all time!
Absolutely the funniest movie ever made. You'll find yourself quoting lines over and over again. And if you don't know what "Sex Panther" is, you are a cultural illiterate.
Rating:  - ONLY Will Ferrell movie I like
I had caught this film on pay cable when it came on in 2005.
Surprised me I liked it.
At the time of release, it was original idea for a film I thought.
It is the ONLY Will Ferrell film I like where he is the lead character.
Now of course EVERY ear he does a similar film like all the sports films basketball, NASCAR & ice skating where this good Anchorman idea keeps being repeated.
The cast were perfect in their roles. Did NOT need ... Read More
