Week Bonus: The Other Guys (Bonus Movie)

Misfit NYPD detectives Gamble and Hoitz (Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg) are sentenced to life behind the desk. They hate each other and the monotony of their meaningless jobs, as they’re forced to live in the shadow of the two biggest and most badass cops on the force (Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson). But when those guys go down for the count, opportunity knocks for Gamble and Hoitz. Stumbling onto what could be one of the biggest crimes in years, can The Other Guys step up their game to solve the case without killing each other and destroying NYC in the process? From the director of Step Brothers and Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.

The Other Guys centers on Farrell and Wahlberg being the crappy cops that have to step up and find their inner badass. They stand in stark contrast to the CrazySexyCool Samuel L / The Rock combo. I’d love to see a movie called “The Guys.” That might be hilarious-er, but it will be tough competition. The Other Guys made me laugh so hard a couple of times that I have soft tissue damage. There’s no way I don’t have soft tissue damage.

The movie was really fun and worth the second watch. It’s also a lesson to all the lions out there to not mess with the tunas because it may not go down like you think it will.

4.5/5  thrusters

The mark of a really good comedy is when the story line doesn’t get in the way of the jokes. The bad cop, bad cop relationship between Farrell and Wahlburg made me get hip dysplasia from laughing so hard.
4 ¼ thrusters.

The Other Guys is like a TLC song. I’m not sure how, but someone could probably compare the two. A soup kitchen performance by Mark Wahlberg doesn’t detract from the overall cast.
