Maybe, just maybe the terminally stupid and marginally talented Ferrell has tortured an audience with his last movie. Let's keep a good thought.

The previews for this were incredibly unfunny. And when you can’t get enough funny out of your movie to make a decent preview, you’re in BIG trouble.

I can not stand Will Ferrell. The only thing I can watch him in is Anchorman. All this other stuff is totally crap.

I really enjoyed his SNL work but after Anchorman he went downhill fast. He’s simply not funny and at times very offensive.

... experiment in "family entertainment."

This movie was rated PG-13. Why would anyone think this was "family entertainment?"

My theory is that the guy has been channeling Chevy Chase, right down to the expiration date on his ability to actually be funny.

Hollywood just keeps on destroying television shows I used to enjoy as a kid.

* Ferrell reaches into his pants to pleasure himself. * A half-man, half-ape repeatedly fondles Anna Friel's breasts. * Ferrell, under the influence of a hallucinogenic substance, strokes the aforementioned creature's hair and contemplates kissing him. * Ferrell, out of nowhere, blasphemes about Jesus.

The formula for today's comedy.

Argh! I really like Land Of The Lost as a kid, it was more intelligently written than just about any show on TV today.

I don’t know why this was a target for a Farrel comedy, the show was never funny, they were always fighting for survival and trying to figure out how to get back home.

FWIW... Mr. Moviefone (Russ Leatherman) absolutely panned Will Ferrell’s “Land of the Lost” this AM on Jim Vicevich’s show. BIG thumbs down...

My son thinks Will Farrell AND his movies should be shot on sight.

Ferrell tries way to hard to be funny and improvs too much. He’s better when he’s playing a serious role and has to stay within the script.

I was kinda surprised when the preview showed him saying “This blows.” Is that acceptable now to say that when kids can be watching TV?
