I thought it had some funny and outrageous moments, but it wasn't as good as I hoped. I liked the political satire and both of the main characters had great moments, but it didn't come together on the level of other dumb comedies that I'll watch over and over again.

It was decent for a cheap laugh, but I was expecting something better, much better actually.

Will Farrell hates Louisiana, therefore he hates LSU.

It was good enough to where I didn't feel like I wasted my money watching it.

But that's about it.

From what I've seen so far of the previews and interviews, it appears that he uses one of his three characters in this movie.

The first half had some pretty good laughs, but it was down hill after that.

Pretty much summed up my experience. I really enjoyed it and then got bored and wanted a nap.

It doesn't try and get all preachy about politics does it?

The scene at the house where Zach went meet his dad on the boat with all the oak or cypress trees. Was that filmed in Louisiana? Seemed like it had to be when I seen that.

It had some really funny and outrageous moments and I really enjoyed the movie. It wasn't near Anchorman funny, but I enjoyed the movie. It had a lot of cursing and sexual scenes which were great. When he received his DUI was a great scene.

No, I didn't think it was anything that would have ruined a good movie.

I didn't know it was filmed in LA. I really liked theIr housekeeper

Will Ferrell shows some range in Everything Must Go. It's on Netflix.
