I wanna go fast!
Another Will Farrell lead movie that's a laugh a minute.
Unlike Anchorman where the movie falls between Terribly Funny and Funnily Absurd, Talladega Nights try to be spaced out funny so you don't really get hammered drunk by the jokes in one go.
The plotline is simple. Golden Boy loses shine and bounce back after he realised he can be a better person. It's the same premise in fact a with most Hollywood Comedies.
Ricky Bobby is the Star of Nascar.
"If you ain't first, you are last."
That's his motto.
Together with his buddy Cal Naughton Jr, they dominate the track.
Ricky coming in first and Cal second. (You get the picture)
Enter Jean Girrard, French F1 driver (Nascar....is NOT really fast compare to F1) and a gay. The Sportsman Rival to Ricky Bobby....and probably...has more than just Competitive Passion with Ricky Bobby.
Ricky Bobby tried to take down Jean Girrard on the track and failing to, paid the hefty price of losing his guts, fame and family.
Enter the father who didn't see him for 25 years. A racer himself, Reese Bobby tried to bring Ricky Bobby back to the road and onto the track.
Of course you can smell the ending miles away but it's a great movie.
If there's a movie you ought to watch this weekend, it's this one (following after The Departed? LOL)
