Editorial Review:

The fastest man on four wheels Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) is one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. A big hairy American winning machine Ricky has everything a dimwitted daredevil could want a luxurious mansion a smokin' hot wife (Leslie Bibb) and all the fast food he can eat. But Ricky's turbo-charged lifestyle hits an unexpected speed bump when he's bested by flamboyant Euro-idiot Jean Girard (Sacha Baron Cohen TV's Da Ali G Show) and reduced to a fear-ridden wreck. Losing his wife and job to best bud and fellow fool Cal Naughton Jr. (John C. Reilly) Ricky must kick some serious asphalt if he's to get his career back on the track beat Girard and reclaim his fame and fortune. 'Cause as Ricky Bobby always says IF YOU AIN'T FIRST YOU'RE LAST!System Requirements:Run Time: 105 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: PG-13 UPC: 043396172340 Manufacturer No: 17234

Talladega Nights The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

This was not to my liking. Not my type of film, or humor. I watched about thirty minutes of it, or less. I found it inane and a waste of my time.

Fast, Loose And Very Funny

Okay, this has to be one of the most one-trick-pony movies I've ever seen and yet I found myself laughing a good bit at a lot of it. Not because of especially good writing, but because almost every supporting actor steals the movie on their own; Sascha Baron Cohen pushes his stereotype so far it turns into something wonderfully weird (lordy, does he pour himself into his comic creations), Jane Lynch is a hell of a lot of fun as usual and so on and so forth (plus a small sexy turn by Amy Adams). Probably nothing I'll ever watch again but at at least I got to see Gary Cole explain quite logically why there's a cougar in the car.

Ferrell at his best

Some of the funniest bits I've seen on film recently. Also has the fella from Borat in it. What more do you want?

depends

Depends on your sense of humor. Some find it laugh-out-loud funny, others think it drivel. I had to watch it several times before it began to grow on me.

THE PERFECT "FRIEND'S NIGHT IN" FLICK

If you and your friends just want to have a side-splitting good time, this is the movie for you. Sometimes it's good just to be silly and forget the worries of the world. Will Ferrell is his usual nonsensical self - in the spirit of the equally insane "Anchor Man". With a name like "Ricky Bobby", you know that this just a vehicle for Ferrell's brilliant humor. All of his supporting cast is just a silly as he is - even the two kids who play his sons. Take your shoes off, unzip your pants, grab a beer and some pork rinds, and sit back for a crazy ride. In today's world, we all need to be able relax with friends and just laugh our heads off - even if it is for only two hours. When the movie is over, keep your friends close and enjoy the out-takes and bloopers. Who knows when you will be able to have such a great time again?
