Brilliant Movie - Gets Boring, But Still Brilliant
24 September 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Honestly, I came to this movie expecting A LOT. I got more than I expected in the first half of the movie, honestly, Wahlberg and Ferrell did extremely well in that half. Ferrell especially made me laugh hysterically, while Wahlberg was averagely good. Just that half of the movie makes it very good. It explained everything well, made me laugh so much and had funny and interesting twists and turns.

The second half (rather, the fourth quarter) is kind of boring. As soon as Ferrell loses his "loser" personality introduced in the first half, it becomes average funny but nothing interesting in it more than a Comedy flick - like "Burn After Reading", although the comedy was not bad, it wasn't enough.

Here's my final word: Watch it. You will love it and the movie will stick in your head for a lot of time. I liked it, many people liked it. But beware, at the last quarter of the movie, it gets kinda boring. With all that said, the finale was hilarious as well as the credits.
