I Love Lamp
12 or 13 years ago it seemed that most comedy films had either Adam Sandler or Jim Carrey in it. While this was not necessarily a bad thing for those who enjoyed the comic styles of Sandler and Carrey, it soon became evident that they were playing the exact same role with every film and soon this became quite tiring for me. It is probably for this reason that I have been quite slow to warm up to the films of Will Ferell despite enjoying some of his comedic scenarios on SNL. However, Talladega Nights is a guilty pleasure of mine and I did like Ferell's role in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, so I decided to give Anchorman: the Legend of Ron Burgundy a shot.

Anchorman is the tale of Ron Burgundy, a 1970s anchorman with great hair, a cheesy mustache, and some suits that look as if they would burst into flames if you smoked to close to him. Of large stature, and possessing an even larger ego, Burgundy is beloved by his audience and is the number one anchorman in San Diego. Supported by his news team of the reporter Brian Fantana, weatherman Brick Tamland, and sportscaster Champ Kind, the sky is the limit for Burgundy, however, one day, a woman Veronica Corningstone comes into the sausage festival that makes up the all male news team and while Burgundy holds affectionate feelings for her at first, soon a bitter rivalry begins.

Anchorman seems to have as many detractors as it does supporters. Yes, the films depiction of the 1970s is a bit extravagant, yes, the film tends to go unhinged at times and go off on tangents, but it is all in good fun. Not a masterpiece by any means, but worth seeing, at least, for Jack Black's encounter with a burrito. May 21, 2008
