Featured reviews
The film is jutted with quality humour - social, political and personal. It lives up to the expectations and doesn't slack anywhere at all. It makes us laugh but also makes us uneasy at times not because of crassness but because it reveals the underbelly of our social setup.
I am waiting for Ted 3 - I sincerely hope McFarlene considers it. Ted should run up for Governor or President. It will fit in nicely with the US presidentials in 2016 and should reveal the shallowness of modern political campaigning.
Go Seth go...
Mark Wahlberg as John is still well done and funny, with him now going through a divorce from his relationship with Mila Kunis's character in the last movie, I like that he is trying to help Ted with his problem on getting legally known as a person; his thing involving him finding another partner did kind of feel like a side plot. Seth McFarlane as Ted is once again great and funny, with him trying to be a person and not property so he can marry his girlfriend, keep his job, and adopt a kid; I like how much he loves his girlfriend and has a good friendship with John where he does not care if the government considers him a person or not, but also how he still trying his best to find a lawyer to help with his case. The last thing I will add is that the lawyer they get named Samantha, played very well by Amanda Seyfried, is funny and I like that she is trying the best she can to help Ted with his case, along with her, John, and Ted having a good team dynamic.
The movie is funny with good jokes and controversial ones like you expect in a Seth McFarlane movie, and the movie will occasionally do cutaway gags like Family Guy that can be funny to watch because of how random they can be but can distract from the main plot; other than the comedy, there are great effects on Ted once again using a mix of good CG effects and using a real teddy bear. The movie does have quite a few serious moments or heartfelt moments that do work and sometimes can be weird in a comedy like this, while also having the same antagonist come back again; the same antagonist from the first film comes back for a quick funny sequence and in a serious moment after that, and that is it.
The comedy sequel Ted 2 (2015) is as entertaining as the first movie, but I do think the first movie was better in a way, especially in some of the comedy because in the sequel some of the comedy works and some of the comedy does not work; this sequel was still funny, the performances are well-done, and the movie had good heartfelt moments. You will only like this movie if you liked the first film Ted (2012), but if you did not like the first movie, then you will not like this sequel that much; I like the first movie and this sequel, both movies are simple well-done funny comedies by Seth McFarlane that quite a few of people will enjoy.
The story was simple, silly and enjoyable; the screenplay was good but stretched; the direction was good for this type of story and the performances including the voice acting of Ted was good. The jokes and punchlines were good but they were less as compared to the original. The runtime also felt little bit long but it doesn't effects the movie experience.
Overall, If you are going for this movie, just don't think too much and only enjoy the silly comedy. It is a good entertainer which you should definitely give a try.
"Ted 2" is a hugely politically incorrect film, with a lot of swearing, sexual and crude humour. It is not usually a type of film I like, but "Ted 2" does have a way to get to my heart. It is sweet and emphasises a lot of love and friendship. Towards the end, the film gets very touching, and it made my eyes well up.
Having a touching plot, together with a funny script makes "Ted 2" very entertaining, way more entertaining than I expected.
The story most of you may already know from the trailers, Ted gets married and then the State says Ted is property and not a person so the marriage is annulled and he basically loses everything. So the story worked, the first movie focused more on John and this one is more about ted. I had no real complaints with this film, there is a cameo with Liam Neeson which IMO was just pointless and not that funny.... There are some moments where they try too hard with the jokes or to be shocking but Besides a few nitpicks i had no complaints with this movie! It is laugh out loud funny, it has serious moments similar to the first and it's just a fun film! There are some returning characters and i won't spoil that. And ohh yeah the Comic Con scene in this film with Patrick Warburton and the running gag they have going on is SUPER HILARIOUS!!! I'm giving TED 2 an 8.5/10.
Did you know
- TriviaMila Kunis did not come back to play Lori because she was pregnant. In an early draft of the script, someone mentioned that Lori died between the two movies. That idea was considered too depressing, so it was changed to John and Lori getting divorced.
- GoofsAt the end of the first film, Ted was promoted to store manager. In this film, he is still working as a cashier.
