Just tried watching it again for the first time since it came out in theaters and couldn't even finish it. Does anyone like this movie? The first Anchorman is my favorite movie so I had high hopes but I just can't get into it at all. There's a few laughs here and there and {Spoiler}the news team battle towards the end is fantastic but overall...ugh.

I disliked the first and I thought the second was even worse.

I watched it on video and found it disappointing. For recent comedies that appropriate music from Xanadu, Paul is the better option.

I saw it altered out of my gourd a few weeks ago, found it really disturbing. Just a strange comedic style, Steve Carell in particular gave me the creeps.

I love the first one and I loved the second one.

I tried watching it but got bored and turned it off after about 20 minutes. I may give it another shot since SuperSweet loved it. That is a gentlemen of elegant taste.

I found the second to be really disappointing. It had it's moments for sure, but it wasn't too good.

I found it hilarious, but it started to drag when he went blind.

I liked it. I knew it wouldn't be nearly as good as the first so I went in with that mindset.

it was f***ing terrible, they could have cut out everything that happens at the light house and it would have been an ok movie

I think the first one is about as average as comedy gets. I know it's different strokes and all that but I've never understood all the love heaped on that film. I pretty much thought the same about the second one, although with less love heaped on it.

I dunno. I got it for Christmas. Considering I think Will Ferrel and Steve Carell are two of the most unfunny humans on the planet, I can't possibly be disappointed.

Kristen Wiig's got a nice butt, so there's that, at least.

I found it to be aggressively not funny.
The majority of the jokes made me mad instead of just failing to draw laughs out of me.
Bad movie. Cheap cash in. Hack writing. Never needed to happen.

I found the fight scene to be the best part of a really bad movie.
Still love the first one, though.

I've still only ever seen the fight from the second movie, and I'm someone who loved the first movie.
What awesomeness it adds by having Tina Fey involved is taken away slightly by the absence of Tim Robbins.

I'm glad to see I wasn't alone in my disappointment with part 2.
I watched about 45 minutes on Netflix, then skipped to the battle, then shut it off.
