Hilarious!!

Rating: 10/10 (29 April 2002)

I hate romantic comedies. However There's Something About Mary is so much more than that, which makes it the greatest romantic comedy ever. It has all the right ingredients: absolutely hilarious characters, great writing, wonderful performances from all, and an adorable, wacky love story.
Ben Stiller is just precious as a former geek still obsessed with his high school dream girl, Mary. He is so cute, clueless, and just irresistible. Cameron Diaz is extremely likeable too as the levelheaded Mary, probably the only sane character in the whole film. She and Stiller are so cute that even I, despiser of romantic comedies, cried at parts because the story was just so sweet.
Besides the two stars, Chris Elliott, Lee Evans, and Matt Dillon are absolutely hilarious as her three stalkers, especially Elliott, and W. Earl Brown is riotous as Mary's brother Warren. The two funniest performances in the film though would have to go to Harland Williams whose five minutes on screen as an insane hitchhiker will leave you in stitches for days, and of course the brilliant dog whose name I can't remember.
There are just so many scenes that bring tears of laughter just thinking about them. This movie is crude, but that's not all it is. It's a film that really touches you and will bring a smile to your face every single time.
10/10 - I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
