Comedy that is not funny

Rating: 4/10 (27 April 2010)

For comedy, Bobby and Peter Farrelly's "There's Something About Mary" is really not all that funny. Most of the jokes are meant to push the boundaries of decency, but do little except waste space. The movie tries to be one of these new, quirky romantic-comedies - like "The Wedding Singer" - only fails.
Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz fall flat in the lead, while Matt Dillon and Lee Evans go down fighting. For great off-beat comedy, see "Better off Dead", a masterpiece of this genre. There's really nothing more to tell.
