not funny


i wanted to watch a good comedy but was very disappointed.
there is nothing funny in this film, i only had a giggle when the dog cought the old lady's dog.

i really dont understand why people find anything funny in this film. i really dont.



also Jamie Lee Curtis does not fit to the part at all.

well honestly I think if you don't find this film funny then you have no sense of humor.

This film is a comedic masterpiece.

This movie is definitely funny. Sometimes you have to watch a movie more than once to appreciate it.

Says somebody who has a handle Justine Bieber? Even if you're joking, that's sad.

This movie is hilarious to a lot of us, but some people need to have pies in the face and the like I guess.

reply

Each to their own I guess. For me, this is a classic and comfortably one of the best comedies of all time.

On the other hand, I have absoloutely no idea why people think Anchorman is so brilliant.

Thank goodness. I thought I was the only one who thought that way.

It's not THAT funny.

It has its funny moments, some really good jokes, excellent writing, and all that.

That's not what makes this movie great, though, in my opinion. To me, the entertainment factor is really high, so that's why I watch it. Even scenes that are not that funny are entertaining, and that makes this movie great fun to experience.

Cleese's charisma and performance, the situations, the atmosphere (eighties, sigh, I want to go back), the scenes and locations (I really love Cleese's character's house and all that), even the musics and such are really interesting.

Some lines are also so unique, it feels like a breath or fresh air to listen to these characters talk. Who has ever said in any other movie "You dress really interestingly"?

Sure, it's a funny movie, but I've seen funnier ones. This movie can still be better than those, because of its charm and all the things I mentioned in this post. Plus, the characters are quirky and fascinating in their own right. The only thing I really hate about this movie is that ugly hag that everyone worships for some reason - I have rarely seen such a man-face pass off as some kind of female, especially with a short hair like that, urgh!

But with a good vomit bucket, you're going to be prepared for this movie and enjoy it.

I just watched this for an umpteenth time and was I surpriced to come here and find several threads arguing this is not a funny movie.

World is full of strange people... :)

I agree. It was not very funny.
