Semi-Pro is an intermittently funny, half-hearted attempt at sports satire, and one of Will Ferrell's weaker cinematic efforts.

The semifunny Semi-Pro is amiable enough, but you never feel there's much at stake. March 31, 2008 | Full Review…

Judging from this low-scoring sports comedy about the mystique of men with balls, Will Ferrell needs to call a time-out from belly baring to refocus his fan-favorite game of playing clueless male doofuses. March 6, 2008 | Rating: C- | Full Review…

You take the Will Ferrell formula and you plug it in, but somehow it just feels kind of uninspired and flat. March 3, 2008

There are some ludicrous sight gags and uniquely silly, if foul-mouthed, laughs. The movie falters when it tries to be serious. Fortunately, those moments are few. February 29, 2008 | Rating: 2.5/4

You can't help but marvel, and laugh at, Ferrell's indefatigable enthusiasm and willingness to make a complete ass of himself. February 29, 2008 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

"Pro" proves to be more miss than hit, with some spotty comedic moments and a story that is really nothing more than spare parts of much better films in the same genre. October 29, 2019 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Semi-Pro is, to put it charitably, semi-good. And I'm sure it will make a load of money. November 30, 2017 | Full Review…

Semi-Pro has a lot of problems, not the least of which is that it is simply bone lazy in terms of plot development, story and pretty much everything else. August 22, 2017 | Full Review…

Semi-Pro will likely leave its star with a sore throat and bruised pride but a bulging wallet nonetheless: it's possibly the first movie ever to be less funny than the products it advertises. October 14, 2012 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Semi-Pro isn't the most well-designed of comedies, it's far too disjointed without enough thought given to making it work as a whole, but there are enough genuinely funny moments, especially from upstart Daly, to make it worth a look. March 30, 2011 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…
