One of the best Will Ferrell movies I've seen.

Its a fairly standard Will Ferrell vehicle, but some of the song numbers are really awesome, even if they were supposed to be parodies. I dont even like stuff like American Idol or The Voice but these Eurovision songs hit me right where I needed it.

music numbers in spoilers
This was just a minute long clip of their competition, i"m hoping Netflix releases a full length version:

The finale song was pretty epic

Yeah. Was a bit long in places, but overall a decent enough if you're into Will Ferrel.

Elf jokes were fun too. And plenty of actual EuroVision-people Cameos.

Also, more music numbers.

I don't know if it was my mood or what, but I was DYING LAUGHING for the first thirty minutes (then I had to turn it off so I'll finish today.) Like every line was so goofy or whatever, and the stupid accents, it was killing me!! "BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY TICKET. FUCK YOU!"

This movie is great. I was dying during the scene with him in the car with the Americans.

I am not a fan of the musical numbers in movies generally but this movie was a blast. I like Ferrell though in general and it didn't disappoint. I am ok with musical numbers now when they are as funny as this ones were.
