Are we laughing at Ron Burgundy or laughing with him?

Movie reviews: Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (15A) finds TV newscaster and all-round sexist moron Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) in the 1980s, fired from his job and divorced from his wife Veronica (Christina Applegate), who has prospered in Ron’s absence to become the first female newscaster in network history.

Ron, meanwhile, is reduced to a slobbering wreck, working as a PA at San Diego’s Seaworld. With the advent of the concept of a 24-hour rolling news cycle, however, Ron is recruited by a new network desperate to fill the graveyard shift. And so Ron puts his old news team back together — Champ (David Koechner), Fantana (Paul Rudd) and Brick (Steve Carell) — and sets out to conquer the world of broadcasting again.
