Anchorman 2

[CallmeGoose]

Well went to see this at the cinema on Thursday night. I expected high things from this sequel, as I loved the first. The first anchorman was a bit of an ole time racist, sometimes offensive and very sexist - the humour was spot on so I had hoped more from the second.

Straight away you could tell something was off. I don't just say that subtly, something was way off! The acting was fucking terrible to say the least and the jokes were just cringeworthy.

This was consistent through the entire film. The jokes felt very forced and I didn't hear one person in the cinema laugh the entire time. A few people got up and left, something I should have did.

From the whole shark scene, to the awkward acting between brick and his love interest it was just abysmal. I rarely give reviews on films but I warning you all now, do not pay to go and see this at the cinema, it's time like this I'm glad I regularly acquire my films from other sources for free. This won't be added to my XBMC collection as honestly it doesn't even deserve a place.

Burgundys son? Might be a young kid but fuck me his acting was shite.

A few big names do make a cameo appearance. Will smith Liam neeson, Harrison ford - it felt very needy that they had to come into the show to give it a boost.

Avoid this, if your really desperate to see if, download it from the usual sources. Pile of tripe.

1/10. (And this 1 comes from the fact that a few big names made an appearance in an scene , albeit a very bad scene at the end)

I honestly dont know how this got good reviews. Decide for yourself but that whole shark scene I just sat there... Thinking wow that was shit.

You know the kind of jokes that make you cringe and just feel awkward? The whole film was like that

I watched this at the cinema a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it, you must be one of the most depressing people on the planet to give this a 1/10 if you loved anchorman you'll love this, didn't stop laughing throughout. 7.5/10

TBH I never thought the first was any good and I'm puzzled what I seem to have missed when everybody else raved over it..

Oh well, as I'm in the miniority, I better shut up LOL

supe

Had to go out after I watched it and get pissed to make up for the boredom. The first anchorman was hilarious but this was piss poor

Wasn't that bad not as good as the first but some of the jokes were alright(chicken of the railroad etc) the whole fight scene at the end was not needed and the film is faaaaar to long 7/10

I saw it with my missus and loved it, especially the slow-mo motor home crash... You do realise that the entire film was a parody of The medieval French farce, Le Garçon et l'aveugle?

Yeah that car crash was superb, really loved that.
