Enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (20 November 2012)

With Ted, MacFarlane managed to create a tale that seemed to be child oriented, but that is definitely for an adult audience.
The movie is riddled with references and parodies; the dialogues fly, and the caustic humor is enjoyable even though it is quite uneven qualitatively.
What can be blamed is the script, being easy and nice enough with this bland love story which contrasts with the quirkiness of the movie. MacFarlane could/should have really gone much further on that aspect.
The direction is very good, the teddy bear animation is top-notch, and some scenes render very well like the fight at the hotel.
