It's the 70's and Ron Burgundy is the king of San Diego. He's the most popular news anchor in town. He and his all male news team rule the city with their sauve looks, minimal IQ's and unbelievably bad hair. In Ron's world, women don't belong in the newsroom. So when rising star reporter Veronica Corningstone fills in for Ron one night and the ratings soar, it becomes more than a battle ... it becomes war.
DVD, region 1, full screen (1.33:1) presentation; Dolby Digital.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Just what it looked like submitted by CasualTim on April 11, 2012, 2:38pm I didn't see anchorman when it first came out, because I (perhaps arrogantly) thought I could tell exactly what kind of movie it would be, based on the trailers and such. But, with peer pressure accumulating and the buzz about a sequel, I thought maybe this was a hidden gem.

Nope. There's not that much to discover here. If you like the trailer, you'll probably like the movie. If the trailer feels like it's trying too hard... I kind of think it is.

silly submitted by airgood on July 25, 2014, 2:43pm Just don't go into this movie expecting anything more than cheap laughs- that's all it is! It is funny in a silly, ridiculous, crass kind of way. The humor isn't for everyone, but there are some hilarious moments.

It's a funny movie! submitted by kkellis on July 15, 2018, 10:07pm No, this movie is not a cinematic masterpiece, but it doesn't pretend to be. It's just a silly movie with a bunch of funny people having fun - lots of great one-liners! Just enjoy it for what it is!

Ok submitted by anacoluthon on August 21, 2018, 3:35am My friends and I thought this was super funny back in high school, but it's not really my kind of humor anymore.

Fun largely for the art direction and costumes. submitted by lisa on July 18, 2019, 4:19pm It's getting a little harder to laugh at pigs.

So funny submitted by jrpolaczyk on July 11, 2023, 6:43am Perfect for us people in our mid 30’s. This was our favorite movie that we quoted for years.

Hilarious submitted by MikkiMoscara on July 11, 2023, 9:47am Very funny movie and a classic. The foundation of a lot of memes. Not appropriate for children, but hilarious, and ok for teens, 17+.

Funny submitted by Xris on July 28, 2023, 8:38pm Funny movie, but at the expense of women and how they were treated back in the day. I specifically watched it to see Bill Kurtis in prep for seeing Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me in September.
