DESCRIPTION
Will Farrell followed up his star-making vehicle Elf, which matched his fine-tuned comic obliviousness to a sweet sincerity, with a more arrogant variation on the same character: Ron Burgundy, a macho, narcissistic news anchor from the 1970s. Along with his news posse--roving reporter Brian Fantana Paul Rudd, Clueless, sports guy Champ Kind David Koechner, and dim-bulb weatherman Brick Tamland Steve Carell, Bruce Almighty--Burgundy rules the roost in San Diego, fawned upon by groupies and supported by a weary producer Fred Willard, Best In Show who tolerates Burgundy's ego because of good ratings. But when Veronica Corningstone Christina Applegate, View from the Top arrives with ambitions to become an anchor herself, she threatens the male-dominated newsroom. Anchorman has plenty of funny material, but it's as if Farrell couldn't decide what he really wanted to mock, and so took smart-ass cracks at everything in sight. Still, there are moments of inspired delirium. --Bret Fetzer
