Saturday night out? We take a break from sitting on the sofa
on a Saturday to see what Seth MacFarlane’s blockbuster talking teddy sequel
has to offer.
The sequel follows everyone’s favourite foul mouthed talking
teddy bear and his now lonely friend John (Mark Wahlberg). All is change in the
universe of Ted with John now divorced and Ted marrying his girlfriend Tami-Lynn
things seem to be looking up for Ted and not so much for his pal Johnny. Until Ted
discovers that he isn’t recognised as a person by the state. Ted, John and amateur
lawyer Samantha (Amanda Seyfried) go on the offensive to fight Ted’s case and
prove that he is in fact human although this isn’t easy, with an old enemy
looking to exploit Ted for his own gain the threesome realise that it isn’t going
to be as easy as they thought.
Ted 2 brings all the laughs and humour you’ve came to love
from Seth Macfarlane and replicates the excitement of the first instalment.
Macfarlane’s brand of comedy really makes the film more than just another needless
sequel, if you’re a fan of dirty, witty humour with an array of pop culture references
then this is right up your street. This unique brand of comedy may not hit it
off with everyone, I mean do you really want your grandmother seeing Mark Wahlberg
covering in semen (Yes that is really a scene!)? Although Macfarlane’s brand of
comedy is spot on some references may be lost of the average British viewer,
faces like Tom Brady and jokes about Arizona State University seemed to hit a
bum note in the Cinema but that’s bound to happen.
Upcoming star Amanda Seyfried that fellow Netflix fans will
recognise from Daredevil only adds to the comedy and bounces off Mark Wahlberg
creating a great atmosphere and chemistry much like Mila Kunis in the first
instalment. It’s pretty easy to sum this film up, if you’re a fan of Seth
Macfarlane, you’ll love it, and if not then maybe you won’t be feeling as much
love but preventing belly laughs throughout will be difficult! It’s the best
comedy at the big screen at the moment go and see it!
7.5/10 – Macfarlane makes lighting strike twice with the
thunder buddies!
