Currently at 80% on Rotten Tomatoes: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/other_guys/Saw it over the weekend and it was a lot better than I expected it to be. Great for a summer comedy.

It has Wahlberg in a funny role; I will be seeing it.
8/9/2010 9:18:53 AM
Yeah it was on par, and maybe a little better than what I expected. Really glad that the previews didn't give away a lot of the best scenes. A lot of great quotes out of this one.Wahlberg and Ferrell work well together in this one. And I really enjoyed Michael Keaton as the captain.

Agreed, Michael Keaton was pretty hilarious. I was disappointed they didn't fit a "Red Light Special" TLC reference in there.

^ Haha, my gf said the exact same thing after the movie."Nobody says creep creep like that unless they're referencing TLC."

I thought it was pretty good too, it didn't provide continuous laughter like some of the other Will Farrell movies, but the funny parts were FUNNY.***SPOILER***Best quote imo:"I'm gonna break your hip"
8/9/2010 10:51:28 AM
I felt the same way. It didn't bring the constant funny, but when it was funny I was laughing my ass off.There a few parts of the plot that seemed to be missing. Ex. what the hell was the deal with Marky Mark's girflriend? I know it's a comedy, but at the end of the movie when they were getting married I didn't give a shit at all.Pretty good comedy film, and Ferrell was back to being hilarious.

Yea as a whole there was some clutter in there, but Ferrell held it together, the tuna rant was incredible hahahah

QUOTE SPOILER:My favorite quote was Samuel L at the beginning flying in the car:"You have the right to remain silent...BUT I WANNA HEAR YOU SCREAM!"That whole 10 minutes in the beginning had me rolling.[/SPOILER]

^Agreed. "Aim for the bushes"

It's a quotable movie that we'll laugh about later, even though we were ready for it to be over fairly early. As such, it will be a good background dvd to put on when drunk with friends.Also, wtf was up with the TARP political statement during the end credits?
8/9/2010 11:04:37 PM
SPOILERI thought the funniest parts were during the first 10 minutes, and though it was hilarious the way that Samuel L Jackson and the Rock died, I would have loved for them to be around for most of the movie./SPOILER
8/9/2010 11:59:44 PM
I laughed twice as much as I expected to.

***SPOILER***My favorite part was the tuna bit by Will Farrell, I had a stomach cramp from laughing so hard***END SPOILER***[Edited on August 10, 2010 at 8:18 AM. Reason : .]

"He's involved with the Columbian drug cartels!""I don't know where he's getting that from."
8/10/2010 10:55:28 AM
"We're going to lock you up in the Federal Reserve!" was pretty good.
8/10/2010 11:16:42 AM
Spoiler...Guys, hands down the best part was the granny going back and forth across the street relaying messages. I laughed so hard I cried. It started out really weird, and progressed to perfection.

You know what they call it when Hobos do that? They call it a soup kitchen
8/10/2010 3:05:19 PM

8/15/2010 11:16:30 PM
This movie would have greatly benefited from an R rating.
