Tartalmak(1)
Nincs az a lány, akit le ne venne a lábáról Jackie Moon (Will Ferrell) a nagy slágerével. A sikert kihasználva Jackie vesz magának egy kosárlabdacsapatot, ahol magát nevezi ki a sztárjátékosnak. Más kérdés, hogy ez nem is olyan képtelenség, a csapat ugyanis az utolsó helyen áll a fél-profi ligában. Amikor az NBA bejelenti, hogy négy csapattal bővíti a létszámot, Jackie minden követ megmozgat, hogy a töketlen csapatát bejuttassa a világ legrangosabb bajnokságába. Leigazolja Ed Monixot (Woody Harrelson), a kiöregedett játékost. (RTL Klub)

I don't know what it is, but lately, Will Ferrell's has been annoying me. When he plays the lead role, he doesn't seem to try to adapt much, he doesn't want to change, and he keeps doing the same thing over and over. This sports comedy definitely isn't something that's going to change that perception. Ferrell attracts attention to himself, even though the characters played by Woody Harrelson and André Benjamin are more interesting. That doesn't change the fact that it's a rather mediocre comedy that doesn't attempt to change or overturn the clichés of sports movies but rather relies on them.

Will Ferrell is a force of nature who can get the most out of his characters, but Semi-Pro is merely an ode to his own narcissism, which is annoying right from the get-go. Also, this perfectly dry story about a bunch of losers who made it somewhere suffers from a severe lack of really good catchphrases and memorable scenes, which is its second big problem. The first issue is Woody Harrelson, who pretends to be on the set by mistake... and the Anton Chigurh-style haircut really doesn't add to his look.

Will Ferrell plays the same character for the umpteenth time, but this time in such a charmingly goofy movie! I was amazed at how much I enjoyed Semi-Pro. Moments like the fight during the commercial break or the revolver scene, Woody Harelson's performance ("If you see a possum, try to kill it. It's not a pet!"), the sensational jibing of two sports commentators, a hippie whose check they won't cash... It was all (except for a minimum amount of awkwardness) very fresh and funny. It was definitely a good move not to write the script so that only Ferrell would make jokes, but to give a generous portion of them to the other characters. Add to that Shapiro's excellent music and lovely period atmosphere. Great.
