Talladega starts out slow, picks up speed in the middle, and nearly crashes and burns in the end.

Broad but not crude, dumb but not witless, clever but still snot-spittingly funny. Stupidly brilliant, in other words.

Talladega Nights may be brash, unbridled, even unhinged, but its cornpone humor is rich in parody, and its craftsmanship is superb.

The movie takes a piecemeal approach that allows for several guffaw-inducing comic bits, but doesn't hold together enough for a sustained comic experience.

You pretty much have to like Will Ferrell to like Talladega Nights, it's his film through and through. But if you do, you're in for a ride.

A comedy with horsepower to spare.

One of the stupidest and one of the funniest movies in Will Ferrell's career.

Often a one-note joke that goes on way too long...
July 31, 2008
Showcases Will Ferrell's comedy genius to perfection.

Essentially a string of gags loosely looped together, a set of absurd situations for the actors to clown their way through, Talladega Nights is an affable entertainment, both a celebration and a satire of lowbrow pleasures.

The script by Ferrell and director Adam McKay, a parody of sports biopics, takes the same freewheeling approach that served them well on Anchorman, but with a more mean-spirited edge.

When the crazy comes, it's pretty good crazy.
