'Anchorman 2' continues the 'legend' of newsman Ron Burgundy and his posse of idiots. The stupid humor from the first film is retained and amplified a bit. The random lunacy, combined with sharp improv, makes for hysterical moments throughout. That's not to say every joke works. Some fall flat a tad more often than I'd hoped. Part of that is due to the sporadic story and loose plot. There was a good fifteen to twenty minute near silence in the latter half. A decent chunk of time could've been outed. It suffers a small amount from this, but the good number of jokes that do hit bring some hard laughs. It's still one of the funnier movies of this year.
