The Other Guys Review

The Other Guys is wasted potential for an otherwise interesting team up of Mark Walberg & Will Ferrell. Its one of those films where most of the funny jokes are given away in the trailer.

What you’ll Like:
• There are maybe 3-4 good laughs throughout this mess.
• The Leads put in an entertaining performance in the 1st act.
• Eva Mendes is Hot when she wasn’t being annoying.
• Best Part: Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson and the crazy STUPID (in a good way) situations they were in for 15 minutes at the beginning of the film.

What you’ll Hate:
• So many more jokes fail than succeed, and FAIL HARD – painfully annoying.
• The plot is aimless and lasts far too long.
• The Climax Action scene was extremely disappointing and beyond suspension of disbelief.
• The Supporting Cast.
• Eva Mendes is annoying when she isn’t being hot.
• Worst Part: Tie between Eva Mendes Singing and the Stupid Grandma as an in-between messenger for dirty talk joke.

Final Verdict:
4/10
Frustrating!
