New movie list Ted Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane brings his boundary-pushing brand of humor to the big screen for the first time as writer, director and voice star of Ted. In the live action/CG-animated comedy, he tells the story of John Bennett (Mark Wahlberg), a grown man who must deal with the cherished teddy bear who came to life as the result of a childhood wish...and has refused to leave his side ever since. -- (C) Universal R Release Date Ted Jun 29, 2012 Wide | |

Review For Ted |
Everything goes on too long -- Ted's carousing, Lori's watchful waiting, John's wistful indecision. Joe Morgenstern-Wall Street Journal
It's a goofy premise pursued with crass -- as well as sentimental -- relish. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
You'll feel the warmth and camaraderie of a Bostonian and his little sentient bear. Laremy Legel-Film.com
I tried to resist but couldn't. Bob Mondello-NPR
The idea of a toy that comes to life - and then won't go away - isn't a bad one. Too bad that "Ted" manages to overstay its welcome without ever really coming to life itself. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
As unabashedly idiotic movie comedies go, Ted goes fairly well. -Globe and Mail
The movie is ludicrously funny much of the time, while occasionally too bizarre and nonsensical for its own good Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine
The creator of TV's "Family Guy" directs his first live-action movie-in which he gets to say and do all the profane, politically incorrect and just plain gross things he can't say or do on television. And a lot of it is pretty funny. Michael Sauter-Film Journal International
MacFarlane is reduced to making increasingly laboured references to the 1980s. Andy Lea-Daily Star
Those who detest Family Guy will not be converted but fans will surely lap up a film that - whilst sometimes flawed - is rude, crude and often very funny. Laurence Boyce-The Sabotage Times
Ted presents plenty of fresh laughs and, from time to time, heart/stuffing-warming character moments. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant
A film with Ted's ingredients should have you stone-drunk on laughter but this film is the comedic equivalent of pissed-in light beer: its 2.5% funny. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat
I enjoyed and laughed at Ted, but I can't say I liked it; MacFarlane lacks focus, the jokes are occasionally offensive, and though the movie has heart, it bungles whatever message it's trying to get across. Jonathan Lack-We Got This Covered
Feel free to tell me to lighten up and get a sense of humour, but it's also worth asking whether it's humour that really drives Ted's nasty streak. Charlie Lyne-Ultra Culture
"Ted" is what happens when you give the creator of "Family Guy" the freedom of an R-rating and a big budget - and the final product is nothing short of raunchy, comedy gold. Justin Craig-FoxNews.com
The laughs are mountainously massive. Erick Weber-NECN
A lot of comic effort is smothered in conventional wrapping. Matthew Sorrento-Film International
If you've ever put a Twisted Sister cassette into a Teddy Ruxpin or wished you could have, this movie is for you. Kevin A. Ranson-MovieCrypt.com
Raunchy, intentionally offensive and full of warm fuzzies (including its title character), 'Ted' is one of the funniest movies for grownups that's come along in years. Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)
With Ted, MacFarlane has produced a genuinely laugh-a-minute yarn which warms the heart and tickles the funny bone into hysterical submission. Adam Lowes-HeyUGuys
If you're fundamentally put off by MacFarlane's brand of comedy, Ted's cruder elements may well prove too irksome, but this film does have a sweetness at its heart that is pleasantly unexpected, even if it does follow an extremely predictable plot. Martin Roberts-Fan The Fire
there is a sophisticated social satire at work that is so finely wrought that though it might appear as the very thing it is skewering, there is something much more subtle and much more potent going on. Andrea Chase-Killer Movie Reviews
Ted gives a rude, irreverent and, in places, very funny new spin to the buddy comedy genre. Jason Best-Movie Talk
At times I laughed so hard I thought I would bust a capillary somewhere. Grae Drake-Movies.com
Hit and miss humour with problematic undertones buoyed by an intriguing premise and appealing performances from the film's human cast. -Film4
In effect we can read Ted as not merely a comedy of growing up, or refusing to move on from adolescence, but as a psychological fable about the continuing struggle to become a mature person. Philip French-Observer [UK]
