A lot of people gave this movie bad reviews, but I am sick of Political Correctness. I am not such a big fan of Family Guy. Find it annoying, but this movie was cute. There was a lot of crude humor, which is to be expected in most films today. However, the movie had a heart. A boy gets a teddy bear as a kid who talks. Both become obnoxious and immature as adults, but when the star's girlfriend gives him an ultimatum to give up Ted the teddy bear and grow up or lose her, both the Teddy Bear and adult start to grow up. I was laughing throughout the movie. Yes, the movie was corny but people nowadays have become too serious and need to chill out. That is what we use to say in the 80s. Have fun and laugh at this movie. Not a great film, but still plenty of laughs.
... View MoreJohn Bennett is a lonely child who receives a teddy bear for Christmas called Ted. As unusual as it sounds, Ted comes to life and becomes John's best friend. All goes well but inevitable, John gets old and has a girlfriend (Lori) so his relationship with Ted shouldn't be as it was, but it's actually stronger than ever. Unfortunately for him, Lori isn't happy with them so John must choose between her and Ted.It's the sort of movie which doesn't take itself seriously so neither am I. It's a complete joke, set to make you laugh with everything the characters do. The simple fact of having a live teddy bear, cursing and smoking all the time is awesome! You have a bit of drama and some sober scenes to change the "mood" a bit but nothing complex. Most of the time, it actually is funny but you have the impression that it tries too hard. A plot with more complexity and a better end could have made it a great movie. Still, it's quite a laugh!
... View MoreDon't usually like animated films but I absolutely loved this movie! I love Mark Wahalberg movies I think has great. I wished I had a talking teddy when I was wee lol I don't understand how so many people hate this movie. The second movie was funny too. :) I love the humour in this movie. U get a good laugh with this movie.
... View MoreI'll admit Family Guy's shtick wore thin for me after about half a season after they brought it back from cancellation. I can only watch it with a particular buddy who thinks it's the greatest show ever. So I'm not the target audience for this movie. On the other hand, I think Blazing Saddles is the funniest movie ever made, including - maybe especially - all the n-bombs, fart jokes and inside references. So there should have been something here for me to enjoy. But there wasn't. Ted is a mean-spirited, vulgar, obnoxious movie. I didn't laugh once. In fact, this movie managed to make un-funny the only thing guaranteed in life to make every man laugh - seeing another guy taking a shot to the groin. It's depressing to think this movie has brought in more than $500M worth of business and spawned a sequel. It's not the worst comedy ever made - Little Nicky is still probably the worst - but it's right down there.
