Anchorman - 6/10. i generally like will ferrell and expected to really like this movie, but i thought it was just a little better than ok. it was funny, sometimes even very funny, but not consistently so (at least, to me). i bought this instead of Dodgeball with some store credit i had from a Christmas return because i'd already seen Dodgeball. now that i've seen both, i kinda wish i'd bought Dodgeball (i actually wanted to buy Shaun of the Dead, but that store didn't have it). the Brick Tamland character almost brings this rating up a whole point as far as i'm concerned - he was great! my two favorite scenes: Afternoon Delight (which i'd seen several times prior to actually seeing the movie) and the big rumble with all the different news teams (lots of great cameos there!).
