Leave your thoughts about Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanAnchorman 2 is not just a sequel. It is an astute satire and an amazing piece of next-level comedy. When it was over, my mouth was sore from laughing so hard. |
| TV GuideCammila CollarMaybe McKay and his cast simply captured another bolt of lightning in Ron's empty scotch bottle; more likely, they were just as inspired this time around as they were during the first film. Regardless, they've definitely kept it classy. |
| We Got This CoveredJonathan LackSimultaneously honoring the spirit of the original while finding its own comic energy and satirical edge, "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" is a triumph, the rare comedy sequel that really, truly works, and easily one of the funniest films this year. |
| Orange County RegisterMichael SragowAt its best, McKay and Ferrell's brand of homegrown American Dada can make you collapse laughing in your seat and cry uncle. |
| Urban CinefileAndrew L. UrbanIt's not really my kind of comedy, but I do admire the risky inventions and daring ideas - even if they don't all work |
| DeadspinWill LeitchThe second Anchorman movie will remind you how much you liked the first movie. Until, eventually, you forget. |
| Screen It!Teddy DurginOh, it's still crass, coarse, and as wildly uneven as the first film is. But this one is actually strangely intelligent and even pointed in its commentary. (Full Content Review for Parents also available) |
| The PlaylistKevin JagernauthPatchy as often as its outright hilarious, fantastically outrageous just as frequently as its forgettable and flatlining, the sequel winds up a bit better than a second tier Ferrell outing. |
| Tri-City HeraldGary WolcottNormally not a big Will Ferrell fan. This one, however, had me laughing. Out loud. A lot. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda Cook'Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues' is even cleverer and more outrageous than its predecessor. |
