Absurdly cartoony but entertaining action comedy. Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are a surprisingly effective buddy pairing.

Two unlikely background cops find themselves in the middle of New York's biggest crime - but can they be the hero cops they so idolize, or will they let chance slip by yet again. this movie was funny and enjoyable to watch.

I assumed that I would find this movie better than most because my gut tells me it isn't as great as I think it is. But... it is. I found this movie hilarious. It is much crazier and funny than most buddy-cop films where Wahlberg actually got me to laugh with his "I'm a Peacock Captain, you have to let me fly" and the reasons for him knowing art, dance, and the like. He is almost doing a parody of himself the whole movie. Ferrell on the other hand was very good at sharing the spotlight and I found him to be hysterical.

Not as funny as I hoped it would be.The funniest scenes were the 1s that were shown on the movie trailers.I found The Rock & Samuel Jackson more funny together then I did Will Ferrell & Mark Wahlberg.After The Rock & Samuel Jackson died, I didnt find the movie to be as funny anymore & it went downhill from there

While there were some great moments throughout the film, I couldn't help feeling this was just another generic buddy comedy, despite the big names involved. It's good enough for a watch if you're in the mood, but didn't blow me away.

A solid comedy that brings Will Farrell back to his best rolls. An awkward guy that is just a bit off. Also helps that he is not really the main character. I think this will be better on second viewing. One of the better comedies of 2010.

i have to be honest.i did not like this film.yea it got a lot of help,just caue ferall and whalberg were working together,but the film wasnot good.th comedy wasn't that good.th story was everywhere.for crying out loud,cop out was abetter movie.yeah i said it.at least "cop out" was funny, "the other guys" wasn't. "cop out" made me laugh, while "th other guys" just made me chuckle.and chuckles aren't s good as laughs.hate to be hating on this film,but i did not like i as much as i was hoping to.

First solid movie from Will Ferrel in a while. Enough smart and stupid funny parts and fairly innovative, but the movie just went in too many directions to be a bona fide hit. Politics, romance, drama, comedy; it was all there but didn't completely gel. Worth renting for some genuine laughs.

In a year of very few decent out and out comedies, The Other Guys feels like an oasis in a vast desert of mediocrity. A buddy movie about a couple of mismatched cops is hardly ground-breaking yet the chemistry between Will Ferrell and a surprisingly good Mark Wahlberg ignites the screen. A high laugh quota (yes, a few gags miss-fire but isn't that always the case), high octane action scenes and a reasonably decent plotline help to propel "The Other Guys" to "Anchorman" like status. An uneven, crude and spotty movie it may be, but the Other Guys unquestionably stakes a claim as one of the comedies of the year.

There were plenty of funny moments. However, from what I could understand of the plot, it was a little boring.
