I am surprised that Will Ferrell can make the same movie over and over again, and that it doesn't totally stink. The only reason I watched Talladega Nights - The Tale of Ricky Bobby is that my boss gave me the DVD (I wouldn't have rented it - I hate NASCAR and everything related to it). Some of the scenes go on a little too long and of course all the humor plays to the lowest common denominator. But I was laughing out loud during a few of the scenes, including the opening scene where they quote Eleanor Roosevelt saying that, "America is all about speed; hot, nasty, bad ass speed." This ode to white trash is sort of funny. Give it a go if you like this kind of humor.
