Talladega Nights Movie Review

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby is another hilarious Will Ferrell movie. It follows the life of, you guessed it, Ricky Bobby. A working class nobody until he gets the chance of a lifetime to "go fast" and race cars. At first he's dopey and not very well spoken but he eventaully gets used to the business and developped into a dopey not very well spoken egotistical maniac. He and a fellow racer are constantly yelling "shake and bake" to eachother which is a catch phrase I'm sure will stick around for at least a month or so. Ricky Bobby faces some unecpected speedbumps (pardon the pun) in his career which include, a huge betrayal by a friend, money hungry sponsor, father issues, a fierce competator, and some major car crashes. I'm sure you've all seen the previews of this movie where Ricky Bobby is screaming for help from a list of celebrities to help put out an invisible fire while running around in his underwear. While funny in the commercial it's even better on the big screen. I'm not sure if this movie is going to be added to my DVD collection when it comes out but I'm sure I'll at least rent it so I can watch all the deleted/extended scenes and bloopers. I give this movie 4 movie reels out of 5.
