Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby

200px-Talladega_nights A few weeks back I watched Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006,PG-13) (ScreenIt! Review).  From ScreenIt!:

A NASCAR racer must contend with his fall from the top of the sport at the hands of a foreign driver.

I was surprised when I realized that I had been watching for quite a while before noticing tat the "foreign driver" was Sacha Baron Cohen.  The film was quirky enough to be kinda funny despite a tame storyline.  I give it 3 out of 5.

I watched it for the first time the other day. What struck me is that it seems that the majority of NASCAR fans did not realize they were being mocked by it.My favorite part was the prayer before dinner. That was some grace.
