MCT:October 6, 2008a pretty pants film. no real story and they didn't even make it funny to distract you from the no idea story.

A typical Will Ferrel movie mixed in with basketball and the 70's. Funny all the way through, but not a classic like Ferrel's other films. ... A lot of known people in the cast.

A bit desperate and unoriginal. The movie is like a very bad sequel of Blades of Glory or Talladega Nights. Nothing new.

MCT:September 15, 2008Semi Pro's maybe not the best movie of Will Ferrell or even not in his top 5 but believe it or not it worked for me. Yeah it could be better directed and produced, it could be funnier or maybe being a basketball related movie on the 70's decade, they could invite some pro players of the era so it could be more realistic but I think that the movie couldn't give up for more. The movie has the typical Will Ferrell humor, with lots of physical comedy and sex jokes, not all the jokes and gags are funny but it has some moments like the one with the bear fight and when they're performing the halftime show that takes you off a real and sincere laugh. The cast is good, Will Ferrell funny as always although its not his best performance, Woody Harrelson is convincing enough but I just felt him a little forced, Maura Tierney was good but not great and Andre Benjamin as Clarence delivers a very good acting job. In conclusion, this movie only purpose is to entertain and I think he barely accomplishes it. So if you wanna see this movie turn off your brain, relax and enjoy.

MCT:September 14, 2008Will Ferrel needs to stop. You are not as funny as those around you. Please stop irritating me. If I could I would punch you in the face, on sight - Three ways; Hard, Fast and Continuously... Please, please, please let me hit this jerk in the face so I can break some teeth.

MCT:September 13, 2008wow, disappointing.
totally did not live up to my expectations.
will ferrell was funny, but everything else wasn't. -
MCT:September 12, 2008
Well, this had some good laughs, and Will Ferrell was as good as usual, but it wasn't anything new for him...
-
MCT:September 11, 2008Absolutely adored this flick, thinkin I need to pick it up on DVD soooon. Saw it twice in theaters baby.
-
MCT:September 7, 2008Will Ferrel is hilarious, as always, but this film is extremely boring. Had one or two laughs, but would definitely NOT recommend it to anyone.

MCT:September 6, 2008
Why is Will Ferrell still allowed to churn out this useless rubbish? Semi-Pro is not funny, plain and simple its a comedy that isnt funny, doesnt work at all, the one swcene that gets a slight chuckle is when the bear is on screen. I think Mr Ferrell needs to find a good quality writer who will give him sum material to sink his teeth into.
-
MCT:September 4, 2008Don't waste you time with this vulgar thing. only a few funny moments. The rest is crudely over the top. ie-vomiting scenes.

Semi-Pro was such a funny movie. The whole movie was extremely funny. It's not easy to make me laugh in movies either so when it does it has to mean it is a funny movie. Will Farrell was very good and did everything perfect for this part. Woody Harrelson also brought a lot to this movie. Andre Benjamin keeps shining in each and every movie he plays in. He will only get better and better as the more movies he plays in. The thing that made the movie even better than it was is because it is rated R. It had a lot of adult humor and lots of stuff for teens. They talked a lot about sex and some very dirty things. It was still done it very good taste despite it being rated R and the dirty humor. It also taught us to be able to play are hearts out and give it everything we got even if we don't have anything to play for. From the very start of this movie till the end it was hilarious. I laughed my butt off at a few different scenes. It will most likely have you laughing hard. That is if you like comedy movies with lots of funny sex related humor. If you can't handle some sex related talks then this is not a good movie for you. One main reason I ended up seeing this movie was because it was about basketball. The whole story pretty much revolved around basketball in one aspect or another. It was about Jackie Moon trying to save his ABA team from being terminated by the end of the year. The NBA is going to take four of the best teams from the ABA to go to the NBA at the end of the season. Jackie Moon is trying to get his team to be one of those four teams. It was cool how the movie had a 70's or 80's story to it. It made it even better taking place in the older days. In those years they didn't even no what an alley-oop was which was very funny. Overall I thought this movie was laugh out loud funny. It should be seen by anyone who likes comedy movies.

Will Ferrell yet again successfully spoofs another sport and gets away with it, also glad to see that he's more involved with R-rated comedy, its much funnier
-
MCT:August 30, 2008
Not bad but its not the best of will farrell. Thought he was better in blades of glory. Also the full frontal shot of up his pants was so not needed!!!
-
MCT:August 24, 2008
Is Will Ferrell trying to get typecast? Once again here we go with basically the same character in a sports movie. Only this time even more of the jokes fall flat than usual. There are some great laughs, but really just a handful. Ferrell is fun and its great to see Harrelson back in a comedy, but seriously, how long can the silly sports comedies go on. Even the afros couldn't do it for me. Sorry Will, 'Semi-Pro' is only semi-funny. Bring back Ron Burgundy!!

J'ai meme pas été capable de finir le film tellement c'était plate... Et l'histoire ressemblais a slapshot en plus.

NOT ONE OF FERRELL'S BEST, I ONLY LAUGHED MY ASS OF AT ONE POINT. BUT I LOVED HOW THE GUY GOT OFF ON MONIX BANGIN' HIS WIFE.
-
MCT:August 19, 2008
I'm disappointed because there isn't much basketball action and it isn't very funny as well. Will Ferrell should buck up in his future movies. But the ending part is quite funny, with the discovery of alley-oop and winning the final game.

A lot of people don't seem to like this movie much but I thought it was pretty good. It isn't Will's best movie but not his worst either. It had some really funny parts in it but it just wasn't enough to make it hilarious. I think if it had some more laughs and a little different cast then it could have been great. The storyline was interesting so there was no problem there. It just came down to needing more Comedy and a diffrent cast.

I AM DONE with Will Ferrell. I used to get excited when a Will Ferrell movie was coming out. Now its like "okay another one", well congratulations youre like the next Kenny Rogers. If you make 29 films a year, how many hits can you have?? Every single one is the same: Will is a big-shot at something. Will has a new competition. Will loses to him/her at whatever Will does. Will is funny-depressed for 5 minutes. One of Will's friends finds him in a dumpster/bar/strip-club/jail,ect. and gets him all pumped up to do what hes good at again.Will saves the day in his underwear...yay. And another thing why is Andre' 3000 co-starring in this film??!! literally all he says is "dat be booshit, rules is rules nigga"
