If you don't think a joke where the characters perform a 'song-a-long' is funny, it's probably best if you look for a different way to spend two hours.

Part of what makes Eurovision so fun is that it takes itself exactly the right amount of seriously. Lars (and by extension Sigrit) is an underdog you can root for, but unlike so many of Ferrell's characters, he's not a complete and total buffoon.

It's a little too loving of Eurovision's kitschy spectacle to be a satire; a little too sincere to be truly silly, despite Ferrell's ridiculous hair and even more outlandish sweaters.
