I have mixed feelings about Will Ferrell. There have been times when he made me laugh ("Talladega Nights", "Old School"). There have also been times when his films have been so weak that I ended up simply annoyed. "Semi-Pro" falls in the latter category. The movie has a very unfinished feel to it. It is well-known that Ferrell and friends often "riff away" and see what happens. Sadly, not much happens in "Semi-Pro". In fact, unless you have some knowledge of the ABA and disco, you may end up completely stumped. This is a very fast hour and a half with no pay-off. I suggest you avoid it.
