mookie-08484 The Other Guys is so underrated! 8 Years later and it's still one of my favorites!

cricketbat The Other Guys made me laugh a lot, but every now and then it becomes so absurd that it isn't funny anymore. This is a fun parody of the "buddy cop" genre with sharp, well-deserved jabs at the financial district. I was entertained.

sakram Yep, I shut this movie down only halfway, 'cause oh boy is the cringe real. I've never cringed so much during a movie, the "vulgar" jokes can sometimes work but the way they are used in this movie just puts me to puke. I don't get it. The budget wasted on this movie, including the stars which the main actors are, you might at least hire a guy that knows what he's doing, but the Director (Adam McKay) decided to do it almost on his own, co-operating with Chris Henchy. Eventually it turned out to be the worst script you could ever get, even worse than many B-level movies. Script : Absolutely an F, out of god-knows how many lines there are in this movie, maybe a thousand ? only 3 or 4 lines are funny, the rest is pure $hît. Acting : It looked like the actors knew something was up with the script and was doing it only for money, I won't say they were bad, but this surely is due to the script. Editing : What' wrong with the Audio, and the trim-editing ? It even had me yawning more. The first chapter of this movie (15min or so) were okay, but after that, it was a huge mess, a disgrace to comedy.Save your time and money, this is not the kind of movie you'd go if you are looking for the good-laugh-comedy.

Stephen Abell Will Ferrell is like Marmite, you either like him or you don't; I am of the latter persuasion, though I am guilty of enjoying Blades of Fury.This film just didn't do anything for me, either as a comedy, thriller, or buddy-buddy action movie. Most of the better scenes were absent of Mr Ferrell. For me, the best parts of the movie was the ingenious opening sequence that created a fantastic satirical parody of every action movie filmed.The other laugh-out-loud scene was when Will Ferrell's character, Allen Gamble, introduces his partner, Terry Hoitz (played well by Mark Wahlberg) to his wife Dr Sheila Gamble (nicely acted by Eva Mendes). This is a well thought out and well written bit of comedy, shame Will Ferrell was in it, his over-acting very nearly spoiled the piece.If it wasn't for Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Samual L Jackson, and Mark Wahlberg this would not be as good a Will Ferrell vehicle as it isn't.If Mr Ferrell makes you laugh and puts a smile on your face then this movie is for you. Otherwise, just search for the two scenes I've rated and you'll have seen the best parts of the film.
