5.0 out of 5 stars
Two of the finest comedies of recent years.,
By
This review is from: Anchorman / Old School (Box Set) [DVD] (DVD)
If you are a fan of Will Ferrell, these two films are absolutely essential. Probably his two best works, they encompass his bombastic, larger-than-life style of comedy in all its glory, and will have you laughing aloud at his crazy, dead-pan antics all the way through. I'd say that both of these films are more four star than five, but together they represent a fantastic comedy injection to any film collection, and are easily worth full marks as such.
Anchorman is centered on the life of a 1970s San Diego news anchorman. It is the less witty of the two, but with razor sharp performances from Farrell & Vince Vaughn's intimidating villain, as well as some of the Frat Packs most quotable dialogue, it is unmissable all the less. Old-School sets Farrell as supporting cast, but he steals the show in probably his best role to date (and probably the best frat pack movie made). The story revolves around a recently divorced man and his friends starting a College Fraternity so as not to lose their house. At its peak, this is unbelievably funny, and Farrell in particular puts in such a fine performance that you are sure to see this again. Overall, a great pack, so long as you appreciate Farrells admittedly unconventional but undeniably unique brand of comedy. There are certainly more intelligent laughs to be had, and much more sophisticated comedians to deliver them, but as long as you are comfortable lowering your brow, you WILL laugh.

I absolutely love Will Ferrell, and am also a huge fan of Vince Vaughn and Luke Wilson. This is really an essential part of any fans collection. Both these films are really very funny if you like this kind of thing. Worth buying in the boxset!

What a combo,

This review is from: Anchorman / Old School (Box Set) [DVD] (DVD)
Anchorman: this is a hilarious film set in the 70's, will farrel is a top flight news reader with the whole of San Dieago behind him. Then his worst nightmare comes true when a beautiful 'woman' (where in the 70's)wants to become an anchor as well. the rest you will have to find out for yourself, but i insist on you watching it as it is amazing. i was in histerics the whole way through.Old School: this is another hilarious film featuring basically the same cast, will farell etc. mitch is talked into forming a fraternity (even though hes not at college) by his mate will farell. they are obviously found out and risk having the members expelled from uni. but to see all the best bits and how the story unfolds buy this collection and you will be set for life. i do not want to spoil the stories for you, so get it get it now now now!
