Review:The story line was obvious but they act really funny inside..Eva Mendes as usual looking as hot as usual in the movie.Same goes to Will Farrel,apprently every hot ladies wants to dates him in this movie!

While Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock died in the first part of the movie..sob sob..but in a funny way...

The balance of action and humour is off here and by dialing down the moments of ridiculousness from his other films with Ferrell, McKay has made them all the more glaringly odd.McKay and co-writer Dave Henchy keep on pumping out gags; their movie often looks like a 107-minute comedy sketch, and I laughed throughout the whole movie.It is a movie worth watching!!

I wasn't sure what to expect from the unorthodox pairing of Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg but it turns out they make a likeable comedic duo.

The Other Guys has surprisingly energetic action sequences, shoot'em-ups and car chases, and even a bit of a whodunit plot.The silly humour is hit-and-miss, but when it works it's very funny

Well worth seeing for the barrage of genuine laugh-out-loud moments in its first half, The Other Guys is an example of a movie that peters out by conforming to storytelling convention.Just go and see it. And send me the bill if you don't laugh.=)A smashing start, but the impetus soon slows. The whole film is like that, dreary quarter hours strung together by a few fun minutes.

Review Points:6.7/10
