Will Ferrell stars in Semi-Pro, an outrageous comedy set in 1976 against the backdrop of the maverick ABA ' a fast-paced, wild and crazy basketball league that rivaled the NBA and made a name for itself with innovations like the three-point shot and slam dunk contest. Ferrell plays Jackie Moon, a one-hit wonder who used the profits from the success of his chart-topping song 'Love Me Sexy' to achieve his dream of owning a basketball team. But Moon's franchise, the Flint Michigan Tropics, is the worst team in the league and in danger of folding when the ABA announces its plans to merge with the NBA. If they want to survive, Jackie and the Tropics must now do the seemingly impossible ' win.

I was really disappointed to watch this movie even on DVD. All the good scenes were already shown in the previews that it hardly made me laugh.

Unfortunately, Semi Pro is like many of Will Ferrell's movies lately. The same crazy, off-the-wall, almost obnoxious comedy routine set to different themes. I had always liked Will Ferrell but lately when I see one of his movies; I've seen them all. Semi Pros/Dodgeball, what's the difference in the movie, except for the sport. I would like to see him in some different roles.

Step Brothers movie review

Some people may think Ferrell is just up to his old schtick, which I can see what they mean, but I love it. He was in his element with this movie, and it was much better than some of his other roles as of late.
