    Funniest movie I have seen in awhile. I was crying at certain points.

    You have to realize it is supposed to be a stupid movie, but it is great.

    Also a little satire on current news

      I may be the only person I know that really didn't enjoy the first movie.

          I didn't care much for the first one nor am ia big fan of Will Ferrell in general. He doesn't seem like a bad guy, so I don't hate him, but I just don't think he's very talented or funny.

          maybe this one will be the exception...

            I saw this movie.....and sorry, it was awful. If your idea of funny is Will Ferrell yelling out stupid and offensive statements at the top of his lungs....then I guess maybe your sense of humor is at that level.

            I don't recall laughing at this movie one single time. I almost walked out.

            The only interesting part of the movie was the big "fight" scene at the end where several big name stars make cameo appearances.....Sasha Baron Cohen, Liam Neeson, Jim Carrey, Will Smith, Vince Vaughn, Harrison Ford.

                Well, I had to scratch my head with it, because I wanted/expected it to be funny...after all, I paid to see it.

                  Will Ferrell isn't funny at all. Never cared for him. All his movies are garbage.

                    Oh, I have liked my share of Will Farrell movies.....the problem here to me perhaps is Judd Apatow, who wrote this. I believe therein lies the problem because I have never like much of what he has done, at all.

                      The only Will Ferrell film that I actually enjoyed was the non-comedy one he did, Everything Must Go. It wasn't* just him making 'funny' noises and faces all the damn time.

                          'old school' was ferrel at his best but he was only an accompanying character, not the lead. but the hank the tank scene and where he gets shot in the neck with a tranq gun is priceless.

                            "Stranger than fiction" was another one atypical of Ferrell

                            not bad ...

                              I liked the first Anchorman, Old School, and Stepbrothers was funny as hell.

                                  The commercials and promos he is doing as this character are funnier than the movie.

                                  While I agree that the movie had some value as a commentary on how "The News" developed into just another entertainment device for these networks, which parts had some satirical value, It just didn't elevate itself to actually being funny when it was supposed to.

                                  As someone said: a great SNL skit....not a good movie.

                                    It was nowhere near the level of the first one...it almost seemed forced. The best scene was when he went to dinner with the boss.
