comedy

(imdb rating: 6.6/10)

Plot: #1 NASCAR driver Ricky Bobby (Ferrell) stays atop the heap thanks to a pact with his best friend and teammate, Cal Naughton, Jr. (Reilly). But when a French Formula One driver (Cohen), makes his way up the ladder, Ricky Bobby's talent and devotion are put to the test.

The new Will Ferrell movie is killing at the box office (91 mil for two weeks)

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby is made by the folks behind Anchorman (which I've never finished watching), writer/director Adam McKay with Will Ferrell helping on the script

It tells a story about a Nascar driver with some sprinkles of father/son issues, it's good solid American fun with a ton of Ferrell mannerisms. The ridiculous French nemesis Jean Girard is played by Sasha Cohen (aka Ali G), the supporting cast is round up by John C. Reilly, Michael Clarke Duncan (the voice) and two hotties: Leslie Bibb and Amy Adams
