The other guys, yeah that sounds about right
This review is on The Other Guys, with Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. Though they are quite mismatched the duo wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. This movie was very funny, I think Wahlberg was trying a little too hard with the comedy but other then that it was hysterical. The beginning of the movie had to have been my favorite part, I could not help but laugh out loud, Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson and Sam Jackson were hilarious in the few minutes that they were in this movie. And my hat is off to the two of them, they made that movie for me, hell I wish the movie was about them. Though they were stupid I feel confident when I quote "There goes my hero, watch him as he goes." LOL n.n god that was funny. To me at least, that song was placed perfectly in its scene. The relationship between Will and Mark's characters kinda felt like an abusive husband and his abused wife, whom later comes out of her shell slowly. There was and wasn't chemistry between the two, I just didn't feel it. And there were some plot holes that I'm sure no one cares about because they were their for the laughs not the story. But analyzing the plot is kinda my thing, there for I must! The plot starts out with a jewelry store being robbed to avert the attention off of a bigger crime, an investor with plenty of clientele with him losses billions of dollars and tries to recover the money by taking it from another source. Yeah the plot is all well in good but it kind of lost my interest and I just wanted more jokes. I give this movie 2 1/2 out of 4 it's basically a long joke with a mediocre punchline.
