I've been a fan of Ferrell since I first saw him in Jay and Silent Bob, and I consider Anchorman to be the best film I've seen in a long time, so I was looking forward to this; a chance to see Ferrell's pre-movie star work.
Not being American, I'm not overly familiar with Saturday Night Live, and up to this, all I'd seen of it was a similar DVD focussing on Steve Martin. That one had one or two inspired moments - most notably a banjo skit - and this one is in pretty much the same vein.
The best moments stem from physical comedy and music; the first sketch involving an anti-drugs medley of rap songs is outstanding, as is a sketch about cheerleaders but unfortunately such inspiration does not stretch to the more wordy sketches which are often overlong and lacking in jokes as well as lacking even in amusing nonsense.
Ferrell's talent as a comedy performer is undeniable, but the material and format of SNL from what I have seen, is generally disappointing.
