Unlike the other Takers!, I have been somewhat pleased by recent performances from both Galifianakis and Ferrell. In particular, I thought Everything Must Go to be one of the most underrated films of the last couple years. It’s pretty damn good and I recommend watching it. Likewise, It’s Kind of a Funny Story with Galifianakis is also really good, if less so than Ferrell’s. Obviously, The Campaign is nothing like either of those films; instead, it is more in line with Anchorman and The Hangover-type films. The previews didn’t win me over, but I’m still hoping for skewed and hilarious window into what’s become of politics in America.
