Ted

Ok so who do you get to act next to a talking Teddy Bear? Mark Whalberg! He did an excellent job talking to plants in The Happening so I am sure this casting meeting with Seth McFarlane was a slam dunk.

McFarlane’s Ted is about a childhood wish, Marky Mark’s teddy bear comes to life and has been by his side ever since. Whalberg’s girlfriend, Mila Kunis, ends up wanting more from the relationship and does not want to share it with a teddy bear.
This movie is definitely not for kids and that is one of the reasons that make it funny. You wonder why this has not been done before. There was Howard the Duck but you got tired of the Duck after a while and there was no CGI effects back in the day.
Kunis and Walberg have great chemistry together and McFarlane as the voice of the bear is hilarious.

Verdict:
Movie is worth seeing and now I know why Seth McFarlane is paid sooo much money, he’s worth it.
