Great movie. I busted out laughing when he tells Pedro that there is a ninja gang and they wanted him to join. Hilarious.

I thought it was funny for some parts (the dancing he does for Pedro's campaign, the time machine, and of course all of his "IDIOT! UGH! WHAT'D YOU THINK?!") but overall it was just a so-so movie.

My 18 year old daughter really likes it, she admits that it's not a great movie, but it is fun.

I hated it. I usually like offbeat, low budget movies, but I felt like this one was just weird for the sake of weirdness. Aside from Napolean and Pedro, the characters were horrible and painfully unfunny.

If I sound bitter, it's because I was forced to watch it a second time the other day.

Havent seen it, but have no desire. It looks like a critically acclaimed great suck ass movie.

Critics love, I hate it.


Critics blow.

I also think the characters were painfully unfunny including Napoleon. His character was cringe-inducing.

There were some funny parts, but all in all...meh. I think it may be one of those movies you have to watch a few times, though. However, my kids and I do quote Napoleon sometimes.

I don't know...maybe I'm getting jaded. I wanted Anchorman to be funny also and it was b.a.d.

Thought it was funny, but maybe a little mean spirited. I'd say it was an average movie with some extremely funny parts that redeemed it.

ANCHORMAN was probably one of the funnioest films last year, I have watched the DVD like 50 times, and its just as funny every time!

I've never even heard of this movie so how good could it be?

I think the Ace Ventura movies are funny as hell.

Great logic. :blah

I think I laugh more each time I see it. It's just really freaking funny.

I really liked Anchorman but my wife thought like Shelly. She loved though the "Afternoon Delight" music video that you can see on the DVD. That was a riot! :)

I thought there were some funny parts in Anchorman, but not as much as I expected. I was bummed because I love Will Ferrell.

It gets funnier the more times you watch it. I think you're just trying to make sense of it the first time where there's none to be made. But, after that, you're just watching it for fun.

Funniest movie of the year....I've seen Anchorman, Dodge ball etc....but this movie is fricken cool. It's not supposed to be a comedy, that's why it's funny.

This was by far the worst movie I've seen in a while ... and I have a tendency to actually like really campy movies.

It knocked the Devil unconscious. :(

I borrowed this movie from one of my receptionists and I was slow in getting into the movie, but then it kind of grew on me.

Shelly

I've seen it 3 times and it's still in the meh catagory for me but it's starting to grow on me some. My husband thought it was hilarious, though. I'm like you, SW, I usually like the campy stuff.

My husband informed me that Uncle Rico played the dude that lived in the closet in Real Genius.

I think it's funnier to talk about than to watch. I can't count how many times lunch has devolved into a Napolean Dynamite Quote-a-thon.

THAT'S where I'd seen him before! ....it was driving me crazy. :lol


The only part I found even remotely entertaining was when he was dancing in that skit ... but that was a loooooooong way and several noddings off to get there. :lol

Shelly

And I did have to laugh at, "Tina, you fat lard! Come eat your dinner!"

I hated it and so did my daughter and son's girlfriend. However, my son and my husband liked it - I think it's a guy thing - kinda like Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

And what's wrong with Monty Python and the Holy Grail? :wtf

There were a few funny parts. But I will warn you now, don't watch this movie if you are tired. It gets 2/5 stars from me.

It's one of the those stupid funny movies. It's alright, if you have nothing else. I wouldn't buy it though.

the movie was decent but it's very overrated. it felt like a dumbed down wes anderson film at time (although i hate even lumping in wes anderson with this film).

Love it! I definitely own it. Its a hilarious movie. I find myself using the one liners too. You can't help it sometimes. It was a great movie in my opinion. I liked the fact that it didn't have the flair and usual stuff you get with movies.
But then I'm the kind of person who loves Monty Python and the holy grail too! :)
