Now this is just laugh out loud funny. Will Ferrell is a genius I've finally realized. It took me a few years to get past the excruciating head bopping club goer dude on SNL when that show started to really shit the bed. (On a SNL related topic - search 'Dick in a box' on YouTube for a Justin Timberlake laugh fest). Ferrell's come a long way baby. Think Elf. Regardless, back to the film. I was a little unsure going in, but wow - the redneck love of Nascar comes through with ferocity in this film. His two snot nosed brats are so good you want to reach through the screen and strangle the little fuckers. His nemesis, a study of Sigreud - or is it Roy, is played beatifully by Sasha Baron Cohen as the stereotypical Snotty, gay as the day is long Frenchman. His scenes with Andy Richter steal the film. Best line - something along the lines of 'Pleas god, let her be 18.' The 'Grace' scene at the dinner table is worth the rental price all on its own. Me Likee.

Will Ferrel has always been a king of comedy. He has yet to make a bad comedy movie.
The cowbell on the SNL skit and then with the real deal QOTSA will go down in history as some wild, wild stuff.
I nearly pee'd my pants when he's in the hospital and thinks he's paralyzed.
One critic wrote: "at times, it seems the actors are having more fun with this movie than the audience". Maybe. But who the fuck cares. It's hilarious and they're supposed to be having fun.
