Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
2006 Directed by Adam McKay
Synopsis
The story of a man who could only count to #1
Lifelong friends and national idols Ricky Bobby and Cal Naughton Jr. have earned their NASCAR stripes with their uncanny knack of finishing races in the first and second slots, respectively, and slinging catchphrases like "Shake and bake!" But when a rival French driver coasts onto the track to challenge their records, they'll have to floor it to retain their top-dog status.

"If you don't like Big Red, then fuck you."
It's self-indulgent and overlong. But Will Ferrell and John C Reilly always make a great team. The racing is exciting, and I'd forgotten about the appearance of the always wonderful Amy Adams. Watch out for Gary "Lumberg" Cole to steal every scene he's in. This movie just makes me happy.
And it also makes me want to watch "Days of Thunder".

I generally like the weirder, less beloved Will Ferrell movies. Of his bigger pictures, I think this one is the most successful. Watched the theatrical version to try and determine which of the two cuts was better, and this one struck me as far more choppy and sloppy than I remembered. The beginning, in particular, goes on for too long and lacks forward momentum.

Not as funny as Anchorman but still a blast.

This was entertaining and laugh-out-loud funny (which I find rare). I like Ferrel and Baron Cohen was lovely.

This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Talladega Nights might be the most retarded film ever made. The film must be commended however because it is well aware of this fact and runs with it, leading to a fun albeit ridiculous comedy.
