Ted's "romance versus bromance" plot is familiar, but the film's held aloft by the high-concept central premise and a very funny (albeit inconsistent) script. Read critic reviews

The greatest compliment I can pay Seth MacFarlane's Ted is that although this is essentially one of those slacker, stoner comedies, and such comedies aren't really my thing... this did make me laugh quite a bit.

It is a film that seems to have an endless middle.
June 28, 2013 | Full Review… -
There's just enough mileage in the gag to keep the movie spluttering through an energetic series of pop-cultural references and broadly staged orgies of profanity.

Laughter doesn't lie. I loved Ted and found it irresistibly funny and hugely enjoyable.

Ted has nothing much to offer in terms of subtlety and sensitivity, but there are plenty of laughs.
August 2, 2012 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… -
The film will probably be funnier if you go with a beer, a friend or perhaps - who knows? - your own dissolute soft toy companion.

Sep 13, 2015Funny at times, but honestly overrated. Let's be honest, there's only so much of Seth MacFarlane that any of us can take. He's funny in 20 minute doses on Family Guy (and even then it's really pushing it sometimes). But after the first hour here, his disturbed sense of humor quickly becomes interminable.Stephen S Super Reviewer

Nov 25, 2013Ted is not exactly my type of film. It's an American Comedy, which is a strike. It's feelgood, which is a strike. It's main role is played by Mark Wahlberg, which is a strike. In my books these are the case at least. That said, I still more or less enjoyed Ted. I was stoked to see during the opening credits that Joel Fucking McHale (of Community "fame") was starring. I went into the cinema without a clue that this was the case. He essentially plays the same character he always does, but it's fabulous to see him getting work. Fantastic. Mila Kunis has always been somewhat of a favourite of mine, and though this particular role was hardly a shining star for me, it was still good to watch her on the big screen again. But Patrick Stewart's incredibly minor role as the narrator, absolutely fucking owned the movie for me. Towards the latter end of the film, Ted sort of... forgot that it was meant to be a comedy. As I've stated many times before, I tend to despise American comedy, so this was fine for me, but I can understand that this would frustrate many viewers who essentially came to see a Family Guy spin-off on the big screen. Here, Ted is at it's most warm, which was honestly a positive note. Though the premise itself is silly, Ted at least manages to hold on to some semblance of cohesion, and soldier through its more intense aspects. Ted, was not a fantastic film. It lacked enough oomph in any one department to really enthral me completely, or to hold a special place for me, anything like that. But apart from being "adequate", Ted, if nothing else, shows that Seth Macfarlane is more than just a one trick pony, and we can still expect his work to remain "not all together terrible" in the future. 59% -GimlyGimly M Super Reviewer
