I like MacFarlane. 'Family Guy' was one of the first animations to genuinely make me laugh, his profane use of comedy felt refreshing. Over ten years later, his comedy hasn't changed and those who grew up with his crude dialogue have now become fully adjusted. This leaves Ted feeling somewhat empty, despite the fluffy stuffing. A young lonely boy wishes for his teddy bear to be his friend, one night his anthropomorphic toy comes to life where they still remain best friends 27 years later. However, the inclusion of a girlfriend rapidly causes a rift between this friendship. "Bros before hoes" is the theme here, an everlasting common message in buddy comedies. Romances do not last forever (unless you're lucky), so stick with the bromance and everything will be great. Except, the whole point of the film is diminished in the last act when both the romance and bromance are equally balanced. But let's not read too much into the core of this comedy, after all it features a talking teddy bear. MacFarlane's feature length directorial debut contains an extreme amount of creativity and technical flair. The motion capture was decent, directing was solid where he dabbles into a variety of styles (including a car chase) and the acting was fine. The problem with MacFarlane is that he just does too much. His famed voice acting career has left his talent specifically trademarked to Peter Griffin, so for him to voice a teddy bear makes it rather difficult to not envisage the lead character of 'Family Guy'. Then he also decides to write the script, which unfortunately didn't make me laugh once. This shouldn't come as a surprise to most, but despite the promised obscenity it felt rather placid. This is simply because we are used to his style of comedy now, he needs to evolve. Profanity isn't funny anymore, intelligent wittiness is what cracks people up. I shan't be saying "I love you" to this film due to its lacklustre screenplay and outdated message, yet it still remains watchable.

When I read the plot I went "what on Earth are they trying to say with this movie?" Then I thought "Ok, it must be just another comedy". Well, I was not wrong with these thoughts, but there is a bit more than those superficial expectations here. But NO! This is far (very far) from being a fantastic film! But it is more than a boring fool funny thing. Lots of the dialogues take us to some reflection and quite a few situations make us remember things like "I've been through this before".Mark Wahlberg's performance is good and Seth MacFarlane's voices fit the teddy bear well. Sam Jones' participation is very funny.

Seth MacFarlane became very famous after his success on the animated show Family Guy and to keep fans occupied, decided to make his own comedy and eventually it was put into production and then we got " Ted ". Ted follows the story of John Bennett who grew up as a child with his one and only friend; a talking teddy bear by the name of Ted, eventually, when John begins to grow up, their friendship then begins to grow more and more distant by making adult choices. Ted is a film I think is brilliant, the film is literally an brilliant comedy for millions of reasons, the film is not just a crouched up comedy, it has loads of heartbreaking drama to it aswell which also makes you feel your watching a drama aswell and laughs, oh, Jesus! The laughs! Ted is hilarious, no other words, the film supplies you with so many jokes that work on so many levels, there is literally not a joke in this film that did not work, it was all so funny, the acting in the film was also something to praise, the acting from Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis is brilliant and Seth MacFarline is also brilliant as the talking Ted. Ted is honestly just a brilliant comedy you should really see if you love Family Guy!

After watching the movie many times i can assure you that it is very offensive and at first pretty stupid. But similar to Family Guy, Ted is an ingenious work of art. With great satire and acting you manage to feel sad when Ted is ripped in half and almost killed. Ted is like a family guy movie, with similar humor and actors. While many criticize Ted for its plain dumbness and offensive humor, i believe that those factors contribute to the story of. We live in a society of political correctness where nothing can be offensive. All of Seth McFarlane's work, including Ted. pushes those limits making it a movie that is extremely hilarious and won't leave you feeling disappointed when you are done watching.
