The Watch Reviews

A fun idea with a great cast, but ultimately it was overly crude and rude. Even still, it was funnier than Ted!

Entertaining for some reason but the potential of the premise is wasted by the lack of ambition in its script.

Poorly written and completely devoid of humor, this is a dull and stupid mess with no redeeming qualities.

Don't expect big laughs and you'll get a somewhat entertaining premise.

Despite being a merchant for product placement and its inability to blend genre conventions of horror and comedy, The Watch is funny enough to recommend.

A clever and kind of briliant. It might be the most underrated film of 2012! hipi kye aye!

This was as funny and entertaining as any Ben Stiller/Vince Vaughn movie I've ever seen. No idea why it's panned so much.

A very good twist on a familar genre that is a return to form for Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn. It's very funny and actually a good adult crowd pleaser

Had quite a few funny moments, but the plot was incredibly dull and relient on characterizations that have already been used up.

Predictable and not funny, The Watch feels like it wants to be funny/smart but ultimately falls flat.

Un peu bete et pas vraiment drole, on espere vraiment que Ben Stiller et Vince Vaughn reviendront avec mieux. En esperant vraiment que l'heure de gloire des comedies des 00's ne soit pas encore revolue.

I don't understand why this has a 16%. It wasn't that awful. The Watch does have some funny parts in it, but a lot of the jokes fall flat. There are some jokes that were meant to be soem of the funniest jokes, turned out not to even be funny. needless to say, I did laugh a few times. The directing is just plain. It's nothing amazing and it's not awful. It's just decent. The CGI and visuals aren't very good either. The aliens look very fake and almost clay-like. The script isn't the best either. It makes a lot of vulgar jokes and things without actually making funny jokes. It highly favors vulgarity of true humour. With such a talented cast, I guess I just expected a bit more. however, the acting wasn't horrible I just thought it would be funnier knowing the comedic talent in the cast. Overall, The Watch is a sometimes funny movie, that favors vulgarity over a lot of things. It does have some funny parts, just it's very few of them. It is entertaining though. I just felt like it wasn't enough considering the talent and somewhat promising plot.
