CGiii Comment
Say a prayer - because the American movie industry really does need it.
Will Ferrell is not a good writer nor is he a good [comedy] actor.
This is simply insulting to America - it's that simple.
Cohen pitifully mimics Peter Sellers and the rest of the cast and production team should be shot immediately - with poisonous bullets to make sure there are no survivors.
It will fall on deaf Hollywood ears but NO MORE OF THIS JUNK PLEASE.

The(ir) Blurb...
NASCAR stock car racing sensation Ricky Bobby is a national hero because of his "win at all costs" approach. He and his loyal racing partner, childhood friend Cal Naughton Jr., are a fearless duo -- "Shake" and "Bake" by their fans for their ability to finish so many races in the #1 and #2 positions, with Cal always in second place. When flamboyant French Formula One driver Jean Girard challenges "Shake" and "Bake" for the supremacy of NASCAR, Ricky Bobby must face his own demons and fight Girard for the right to be known as racing's top driver.
