Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy

2004 • 94 minutes

About this movie

There was a time before cable when the local anchorman reigned supreme....Enter the hard-hitting world of the 1970s local TV news, where Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) and his loyal Channel 3 New Team are San Diego's #1 rated news source. All is well in their male-dominated world of news until beautiful, rising-star reporter Veronica Corningstone turns it all upside down. Sparks don't just fly, they ignite an all-out war between the two perfectly coiffed anchorpersons. In a job where it pays to keep a straight face, Anchorman is the comedy that makes it almost impossible to stop laughing.

Ratings and reviews

Terrible, unmemorable, boring and that type of humiliating humour that makes your skin writhe.

Great weird chemistry and my word Steve Carell unreal

It has its ups and downs, with more of the former. An entertaining comedy that makes fun of the era it is set in.
