Falls far short of Family Guy

Rating: 2/10 (4 August 2012)

There's often a fine line between funny and stupid. Family Guy is mostly funny, but occasionally stupid. This movie was occasionally funny, but mostly stupid. The plot was thin, the writing and acting were weak, and the whole thing was so tedious that I couldn't wait for it to end. A crude teddy bear is funny for about 5 minutes, but I was surprised to hear people laughing at the same repetitive shtick after 90 minutes. It makes me a little scared for our society. And not because of the crudity, but because of the stupidness. I've lost some respect for Mark Wahlberg with this one, though Mila Kunis did a decent job with the role she was given. She had the only character with any legitimacy. Family Guy is funny; Ted is stupid.
