‘Semi-pro’ basketball team semi-sucks

Historically, there has been a recipe for the success of a Will Ferrell movie: Cast Will Ferrell as an overly self-confident success story with a low IQ, mix in a hilarious nemesis, add a group of mentally challenged allies and screen for up to two hours. Should serve an audience of millions. However, the most critical component of the recipe — a supporting cast — is left out of “Semi-Pro,” resulting in a half-baked 90-minute muted chuckle.

What I really see here is a non-fan of Will Ferrell. This review was pretentious and self-centered. Saying things like "some of my comedic favorites," and generally commenting on your personal lack of appreciation for this film is obnoxious. Nobody enjoys reading this. I learned nothing about the film from reading this, except that the author does not like Will Ferrell or a Will Ferrell movie. Please stop writing film reviews unless you plan on actually reviewing the film.
