5/5 Will Ferrell is a comedic god!!
  by Jason W. Mazeski (Orange County, NY)
What a great movie for the PSP. It is full of great laughs, and not one part of this flick suffers when being viewed in the small PSP screen. Definitely a PSP must have.

1/5 I can not believe how BAD this movie is
  by Bob O'Neill (North Texas)
I could only watch about 20 minutes of this movie before stopping the player. When they started talking about little baby Jesus vs other Jesuses, I'd had enough. Not funny.

5/5 Talladega Nights.
  by Carlton V. Joiner (Cleveland, OH)
I love this movie. Very funny ! I received my order very fast and the product was perfect. THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1/5 Silly Is Not Always Funny
  by Penny Dreadful (Under Your Skin)
Not even the added presence of Sacha Baron Cohen, arguably the greatest comic actor since Peter Sellars, could raise this hideous flop above abject sub-mediocrity. I expected a laugh or two for my money, Will Farrell's generally good for that, and was prepared to suffer through a lot to get them but this truly, deeply, achingly bad movie was one of the most egregious misfires to come down the pike since the Dumb & Dumber prequel. I'm not a comedy snob, I'll take laughs where I can get them, gags about bodily fluids, farts and amorous overweight old ladies not excluded, but this film oozed a stench that effectively covered anything resembling humor. This was one Blu-ray that went straight to the nearest Goodwill once I was done with it.

Nascar Stock Car Racing Sensation Ricky Bobby (will Ferrell) Is A National Hero Because Of His "win At All Costs" Approach. He And His Loyal Racing Partner, Childhood Friend Cal Naughton Jr. (john C.

When Flamboyant French Formula One Driver Jean Girard (sacha Baron Cohen) Challenges "shake" And "bake" For The Supremacy Of Nascar, Ricky Bobby Must Face His Own Demons And Fight Girard For The Right To Be Known As Racing's Top Driver.

Sweet baby Jesus, we thank you for blessing Will Ferrell and Adam McKay with the talent to create a NASCAR comedy as hilarious as Talladega Nights. The so-called "Ballad of Ricky Bobby" is hardly flawless in fact it's not always firing on all cylinders but with comedy star Ferrell and director McKay still hot from the success of their previous comedy hit Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, most of this 108-minute spoof of oval-track racing is so knee-slappin' funny that you can't help but surrender to the stupidity.

Obviously, Ferrell's the shining star, and his portrayal of lead-footed pit-crew-member-turned-#1 NASCAR champion Ricky "I Wanna Go Fast" Bobby (how can you not love that name?) is spot-on perfect, righteously spoofing the entirety of NASCAR culture without insulting its oft-ridiculed roots in redneck bootlegging of a bygone era. You could even argue that Talladega Nights is truer to NASCAR than Tom Cruise's Days of Thunder, and it's certainly more entertaining, especially when you add John C. Reilly as Ricky's life-long pal, teammate, and eventual rival Cal Naughton, Jr. (together they're nicknamed "Shake 'n Bake"), and Sacha Baron Cohen (from Da Ali G Show and Borat) as gay French "Formula Un" driver-turned NASCAR rival Jean Girrard, to a stellar cast including Molly Shannon, Greg Germann, Amy Adams and Michael Clarke Duncan.

Sure, it's mostly a showcase for Ferrell's loud, over-the-top antics and nonsensical non sequiturs (like cameo appearances by Elvis Costello and Mos Def), but with Ferrell behind the wheel, Talladega Nights rolls into victory lane with fuel to spare, and there's one final bit of comedy (with a tip of the hat to William Faulkner) for those who sit through the credits. --Jeff Shannon
