Review:
Seth
McFarlane wrote it, directed it and
is staring in it? Jesus, awesome, what could be better? Oh and Mila
Kunis, okay I'm listening. Mark Wahlber? Okay. And
Parick Stewart is narrating? Oh. Okay, you win. Perfect cast.
Unlike
most I've talked to, I went in with high expectations and boy, they
were still just blow anyway. It was amazing! Hilarious, beginning to
end.
Honestly,
watching the trailer, I thought it would just be a long episode of
Family guy (which I was still pretty excited for), but it wasn't. It
really wasn't. I mean, obviously, it still had the similar style and
tropes of anything by Seth McFarlane, the popular media references
and celebrity appearances, but done with less class (somehow) and
yet, miles better.
I
like the fact that throughout the comedy and fun, it never felt like
it was “dumbing it down” for the audience. The center
relationships, between both Ted and John and Lori and John, were
believable. The drama and Disney
style ending were very well played out, despite it being a comedy it
didn't take a dime away from it.
Quotes:
'Ted
& John: Fuck
you, Thunder! You can suck my dick!'
'Ted:
[dressed in full suit] John, I look like something you give to your
kid when you tell 'em Grandma died'
'John:
[during flashback] Chris Brown can do no wrong!'
'Southern
Newscaster: Look what
Jesus did!'
'Ted:
That's because their mouths were full of your wife's box.'
'Lori:
There's a shit on the floor! Ted:
Or, or, or, maybe, the floor is on the shit.'
'Ted:
I look like Snuggles' accountant.'
'Narrator:
No matter how big a
splash you make in this world whether you're Corey Feldman, Frankie
Muniz, Justin Bieber or a talking teddy bear, eventually, nobody
gives you a shit.'
And like
everything else said in this movie xD
Overall
Rating: 5/5
