Will Ferrell: Best and Worst Movies

  • ernest_t_bass
    Just got done watching Land of the Lost. It's pretty bad, but not the worst movie I've ever seen. What are some of the best and worst Will Ferrell films (in your opinion)?

    Best: Anchorman

    Other Favorites: Talladega Nights, Step Brothers, Old School

    Worst: Stranger than Fiction

    I didn't mind Stranger than Fiction. I think his worst is Land of the Lost.

    I like just about everything else...that I can think of.

    edit: Bewitched was terrible too.

    Best: Anchorman and Step Brothers

    Honorable mention: Talladega Nights and Old School

    Worst: Bewitched

    I've never watched Stranger Than Fiction.

    I honestly can't think of a "best" for him.

    Maybe Kicking and Screaming? Robert Duvall and Mike Ditka were classic in that movie.

    I like all of his movies that I've seen, but I've never watched Bewitched or Semi-Pro.

    Step Brothers is by far the best movie he is in, followed closely by Elf, Anchorman, and Old School.

    Semi-Pro had it's funny parts but overall it was just alright.

    Minor roles count? Anchorman, Wedding Crashers and Step Brothers are probably my top three.

    Land of the Lost & Bewitched are his worst.

    Using "best" for a Will Ferrell movie almost seems like an oxymoron. I think his best work is when ad libbing about USC football or some NASCAR race.
    He's funny as hell just most of his movies are not for me.

    ...Best Elf or Step Brothers
    ...Worst Land of the Lost
  • Laley23
    Best:
    Night at the Roxbury, Elf, Old School, Step Brothers and Anchorman...Wedding Crashers if that counts

    Worst:
    Bewitched (even Nicole Kidman looking good couldnt save it). Never saw most others cause I thought they looked dumb as fuck. Talladega Nights was ok.

    Anchorman is far and above his best film.

    Stranger Than Fiction wasn't bad.
  • ohiobucks1
    I like Semi Pro , Old School, Anchorman, Elf, and Step Bros as his best

    Worst: Land of the Lost

    Best: Old School, Anchorman, his cameos in Wedding Crashers and Starsky and Hutch
    Worst: Everything Else
  • tcarrier32
    Anchorman is his best, I think. Its also one of the better comedies to come out in the past twenty five or so years. His worst? Probably Bewitched.
  • Ytowngirlinfla
    By far one of my all time favorite movies is Step Brothers. I've watched it at least 20 times this deployment. Best: Elf, Anchorman, The Other Guys, Old School, Talledega Nights Middle: Superstar, Night at the Roxbury Worst: Bewitched Also he was pretty funny in East Bound and Down
  • ksig489
    Elf is under rated

    Worst sounds like LotL and Bewitched

    Best: Elf, Anchorman, The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Step Brothers

    Best cameo by far was in Wedding Crashers. "Mom, MEATLOAF! F**K!", "Dude I almost nunchucked you, you dont even know!"
  • Dr.Pizza
    I prefer ferrell in minor roles like old school. As the lead, if find him overwhelming.
    My favorites...old school,night at the roxbury,elf
    meh...talladega,anchorman,other guys
    worst: semi pro, bewitched, that movie where he sits on the lawn.

    id take a steve carrell movie over will anyday
  • Gblock

    I loved Stranger than Fiction. Thought it was it best performance and really nice to see him in his non traditional role.

    ETB, why didn't you like it?

    It was just the first that came to mind. I have only seen it once, and it was years ago. I think I was looking for more of a comedic role for Ferrell, and was disappointed. Considering some posts on here, I may have to check it out again.

    Will Ferrel is best when he isn't playing the lead character.

    Best: Old School, Zoolander, Wedding Crashers etc.

    I'm going to say this with Old School up there right below Anchorman.

    I thought Land of the Lost was ehh but I've never watched a movie of his and thought wow he blows. Still Anchorman is one of my all-time favorite comedies and in Old School he was hilarious in every scene
