Will Ferrell stars as a top-rated 70s news anchorman whose world falls apart when a woman arrives behind his news desk.
Rewind 25 years or so to an age before cable, when men were men and women were a hobby. This film is stupid, politically incorrect and full of cheap jokes, which is why it was one of the funniest films of the year! If you like Will Ferrell, this may be his best work to date as it is 94 mins of pure hilarity. "I'm gonna punch you in the ovary, that's what I'm gonna do. A straight shot. Right to the babymaker." Put on movie; add friends and food and you"ve got a great night in with Mr. Ron Burgundy. You stay classy San Diego.
A hilarious comedy that will have you crying with laughter. A completely over the top film that had me in stitches from start to finish. Will Ferrell a chauvanistic anchorman who is devastated when he gets a female co-anchor who unsurprisingly is better at the job than him.

It's the early 1970s and the local anchorman is not only a source of news but a revered local hero. In San Diego, Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell), a mustachioed bachelor with a taste for scotch, unparalleled passion for the jazz flute, and a near-telepathic connection with his spirited mutt, Baxter, is that man. Rounding out Ron's testosterone-heavy news team are his close friends--cologne-obsessed man-on-the-street Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd), sports reporter Champ Kind (Dave Koechner), and mentally challenged weatherman Brick Tamland (Steve Carrell). Their male camaraderie is challenged, though, when producer Ed Harken (Fred Willard), pressured by changing times, brings the first female reporter, ambitious Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate), to the team. Ron finds his chauvinistic ideals compromised further when he starts falling in love with her. Fuelled by Ferrell's singularly loopy persona, ANCHORMAN joins the long list of comedies which have successfully poked fun at the styles and mores of the '70s. Here, with Ferrell's script and Adam McKay's direction, the character of Ron Burgundy becomes a full-bodied comic creation whose possibilities for laughs aren't nearly exhausted by the end credits. The result is an often hilarious celebration of moustaches, wide neckties, alcohol abuse, and good, old-fashioned sexism.
Goofball comedy directed by former Saturday Night Live writer Adam McKay. Will Ferrell stars as Ron Burgundy, a top-rated 1970s San Diego anchorman who believes women have a place in the newsroom - so long as they stick to covering fashion shows or late-breaking cooking news, that is. So when Ron is told he'll be working with a bright young newswoman (Christina Applegate) who's beautiful, ambitious, and intelligent enough to be more than eye candy, it's not just a clash of two TV-people with really great hair: it's war...
