Verdict: A deliriously barmy, laugh-out-loud sequel that manages to top the much-loved original, with fond nods to Australia in tow
Almost a decade has passed since Ron Burgundy and the Channel Four News crew were seen swinging their supersized egos across a San Diego studio room floor. Anchorman - that wry, dry sleeper hit of yore - quietly, almost innocuously, became a cult favourite, to the extent that star Will Ferrell admitted he was often asked about little else.
Momentum for a follow-up slowly began to build.
Little surprise, then, that when the cast of this long-awaited revival arrived, en masse, for last month's Australian premiere, Antipodean people power was name-checked as a factor in getting the gang back together. (Amid a flurry of global pre-release, social-network marketing was a YouTube message specifically referencing the Melbourne Cup and Sydney Airport).
Anchorman 2 is so gleefully awash with references to Australiana that it could be a blatant love letter from its star Ferrell (who co-wrote the screenplay and is a frequent visitor to our shores). A white pointer, the legacy of Olivia Newton-John, a brash Aussie boss (played effectively by Josh Lawson) and an airline christened Koala Airlines all feature prominently.
