STINKERMAN: Hit the 12:01AM showing of Will Ferrell's new ANCHORMAN tonight (this morning) across the street from the hotel. Sadly, it was just as I suspected. More dumb than funny. Sure, there are some moments. I'm too tired to recount them. Before I retire, though, it's my duty to tell you this: Wait for HBO, or at the very least, BLOCKBUSTER. This is lighter fare than even ELF or OLD SCHOOL. This ninety-minute movie had less big belly laughs than a single SNL skit. A few good sight gags and cameos, a couple funny facial expressions and ad-libbed lines, but in general a sprawling mess of a costume comedy stretched three times too long.
