Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

My goodness I love Will Ferrell. He is deliciously cheeky, charming and stupid in the right mix! In this movie, which I am not going to give away, I will say this - it comes across as a stupid AJ-type movie, the type of movies I avoid like the plague - but is very very funny. There is no thinking involved, which, sometimes, is just the ticket.
That may've not made sense, but then, sometimes neither did the movie.
4/5 stars. Definitely worth watching again.

On another note, I have also seen "John Tucker Must Die". Not something I would've normally seen, but I was bored listless, and it was either this or "Material Girls", and I would've jumped thru the screen and killed the Duffmiesters within two minutes. Surprisingly, "John Tucker..." was actually very good, a regular teen fluff movie, but enjoyable indeed. Not in the same league as "Mean Girls" though, but then, what is these days.
