Great idea shame about the movie

Rating: 3/10 (12 January 2013)

The idea of a foul mouthed teddy bear is a great one (and has a long tradition in comic books).
But I think the idea should have stayed in the bar where it was discussed - the script is weak and the execution is overlong. The whole thing would have worked as a 40 minute extended sketch but as a film? Pants.
If I had to level a main criticism - it wasn't rude enough. It had obviously been watered down for the American audience. If you're going to do this kind of thing - go all the way. Maybe Ted should have had a penis and spent some time in a doll store (kind of thing).
