Ted

The basic plot of this movie is simple and familiar but it is well executed and riffed on in fun ways. I hope that for MacFarlane's next feature (which I hope does happen) he is more creative and daring with the story he chooses to tell (for a movie with a living teddy bear it was surprisingly unoriginal). The cast does well, especially enjoyable was Giovanni Ribisi, and there are plenty of memorable jokes, but I know MacFarlane has a better movie in him.

121226 Would you like to watch a movie or a very long Family Guy episode? This is the latter and it just does not hold up well to the added length. It had it's funny moments, but the teddy thing actually turns out to be a gimmick. The exact same story could have been told (and has been a thousand times already) with a human as the best buddy.

funny, but like most comedies, it fizzles and dies around the halfway point, when the writers decide the movie has to actually be about something. then it just gets to be really sappy and kinda lame. Mila Kunis is still in it though so it's not a total loss.

Formulaic but fun film from Seth MacFarlane. Features the same type of humor as his other work and features gags at a rapid pace utilizing toilet humor, sex, drugs and MacFarlane's obsessions like Star Wars.

The Family Guy: The Early Years

Not bad, not bad at all. Some really hilarious moments, nice acting, Mila Kunis (always a plus in a movie), the Thunder Song (I kept singing it for a few days after watching the movie), nice movie all in all!

Not funny, a bad script, a good story, you don't get where the movie's going until the very end (and not even then).

Despite it has no good message, no drama, no philososphical side, this is a pure example of comedy, I laughed a lot during this movie. I was very pleasent while I was watching it.

So creative and fun .

Better than expected.

I should have spent the time watching Flash Gordon.

Tried way too hard to be funny.

Some funny moments, but not enough to make up the overall low points of the movie. Very predictable, but not terrible.

Well done, funny.. perhaps the end was a tad slow, but him acting like a retarded bear mad up for it.

(+) Sometimes funny (-) Consumerist

The occasional witty comment was never going to save this movie from being exactly what it was - a rather dull low quality B grade movie. My instinct said it wouldn't be worth my time, I should have stuck with them and not given in because of my bosses glowing review.

This is what happens when you throw a bunch of mediocre family guy gags and every celebrity you can get your hands on into a movie and hope for the best.

Such a ridiculous movie, but so damn funny.

pretty fun concept loved it too it wasn't trying too hard but still coming off really good this and the sequel were great

This point depend on who you are. I'm just a simple guy who laugh sex jokes and inappropriate talks.

Cute, rude and hilarious all at the same time, 'Ted' delivers the kind of humour you'd expect from MacFarlane (complete with copious pop culture references). The story is exceedingly typical of any 'bromance' film and already feels very worn, but in some ways this allows MacFarlane to layer hilarity on top of a tried-and-trusted story chassis.

It just wasn't that funny, and a stupid concept for a love movie. Wahlberg picks some great concepts, but the movies just never seem to pan out that well. Always excited to see them, but his movies underperform vs expectations.

just another..

I do like Family Guy and American Dad though both are getting pretty tired these days. This film was appallingly bad, it didn't so much as raise a smile much less a laugh. A lazy sloppy plot with the same boring tired references and jokes of the aforementioned shows. The idea has so much potential but it was just not realised.

Too vulgar for me...

veeery funny

I don't automatically love or hate Seth MacFarlane (unless he's appearing in front of a camera), but I liked this movie okay. Okay?

Ted...Sapik mi sapik bir ayicik...Zaten filmi komedi yapan o :D Izleyin seversiniz...

Crass, stupid and lacking in proper closure or character development, but hilarious once with a bunch of friends.

A potentially good premise that very quickly unravels into a formulaic bro-comedy and a long streak of failed jokes.

It's a rare thing that I can't bear to watch a movie till the end. I even managed to the end of Prometheus. It's a rare thing that I can get really high and watch a comedy and not laugh once. These two things are the total of Ted's achievements. Besides that it might coin the word 'Tedful' to describe a movie that is utterly dreadful.

I really felt like the trailers misled viewers on this one. I was expecting a Pineapple Express sort of comedy adventure, but this was really just a romantic comedy with more swearing and a bong.

I'm the kind of guy who can only take Seth MacFarlane's material in small doses. Seth manages to take the idea of what would be a family film and puts his own twisted spin on it for adults. While there were some great jokes there were also lots of duds. The entire scene with Sam Jones at Ted's party had me in tears from laughing so hard. Basically, Ted is hit and miss. If you like crude humor you should check it out. 3 STARS

As a big fan of Family Guy, I can say truthfully that while it works, I almost wanted a different voice for Ted at times. Even through the typical Family Guy fare of randomness (Flash Gordon), Mark Wahlberg is the perfect cast for Boston schlub John Bennett.

good for some laughs, oddly crude.

Nothing wrong with it.

As Family Guy fan, the humor doesn’t translate to film. Situations were orchestrated together to create the perfect punchline however they fell flat. Mark Wahlburg is much better in drama roles than comedic.
