Going into the film with very low expectations, as I usually find Will Ferrell's humor hit or miss, I was incredibly surprised at just how much I enjoyed Talladega Nights, the Legend of Ricky Bobby.
It was great fun, my friend and I both caught it for a matinee today and came out thinking it's one of the better films we've seen in a while. It's not heavy drama, but it was quite fun. Well worth the full fare if necessary. Be prepared to laugh hard and long.
The movie runs a little long, but not overly so. Great performances all around and a few surprise characters/actors in the mix.
Go see it, have a great time and try not to laugh too hard.
