The Other Guys
Directed by Adam McKay
Unlike their heroic counterparts on the force, desk-bound NYPD detectives Gamble and Hoitz garner no headlines as they work day to day. When a seemingly minor case turns out to be a big deal, the two cops get the opportunity to finally prove to their comrades that they have the right stuff. From TMDB

positive · AI labelView post →‘Lion vs Tuna‘ THE OTHER GUYS (2010) Uneven movie, but this scene is great.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching The Other Guys for the first time in like 15 years and 1. Ages beautifully 2. The death scene of The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson is still the hardest I've laughed in a theater, and still cracked me up today. 3. Michael Keaton should be in every movie.
positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching The Other Guys. One of the very best comedies of the century.
positive · AI labelView post →It's funny that one of the Rock's best scenes in a movie is him jumping to his death in The Other Guys for no reason besides ego. I wonder if you could map that onto real life.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Other Guys! I can't believe how many people know nothing at all about this film. So good!
positive · AI labelView post →Im so bored so Im singing the old sailor’s hymns from The Other Guys to my boyfriend via voice notes. He’s never seen the movie and I refuse to explain it to him so now he just thinks Im having a psychotic episode

positive · AI labelView post →Finally getting around to watching The Other Guys, a movie several people have been on my ass to watch for probably 15 years, and yet none of them thought to tell me Derek Jeter gets shot in it.
neutral · AI labelView post →Stoned with my friends while eating watermelon and watching an actually funny movie (“The Other Guys”) and this is a pretty great Sunday night
positive · AI labelView post →For such a mediocre film, The Other Guys has two of my favorites: Will Ferrell pretending Eva Mendes is mid and Michael Keaton referencing his bisexual son at random. Should be a great movie as the three above have excellent comedic timing but it’s brought down by the presence of Mark Wahlberg.

neutral · AI labelView post →📽️ #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched THE OTHER GUYS - I like the unrated version about 1/2⭐️ more than the theatrical cut on Netflix BABY DRIVER - improved a bit on this second watch SORCERER - hands down my favorite Friedkin film REPTILE - cliche-ridden, borrowing too much from better cop films
positive · AI labelView post →Watching "The Other Guys." 1h47m seems like a lot for a Marky Mark movie.
negative · AI labelView post →The Other Guys. Mark Wahlberg isn't funny, or a good actor, and he's an asshole, among other issues that movie has.
negative · AI labelView post →Watching The Other Guys, which is the best movie to costar the worst punisher actor.
positive · AI labelView post →Yeah I am watching The Other Guys again.

neutral · AI labelView post →THE OTHER GUYS is a really funny movie! And if you think that it's odd that Adam McCay's next movie was THE BIG SHORT? Watch the end credits of this one. The seeds are there! (I forgot Michael Keaton plays the Captain. He's so great in this!)

So I feel fine giving 5 stars to The Other Guys (the Ferrell comedy), Inglourious Basterds (my fav Tarantino), and The Great Beauty (my fav film) Let’s hang! boxd.it/bMMAn

neutral · AI labelView post →The Other Guys (2010) ★★★★★ I watched the movie over the weekend with my friend and boy it's right up there with Anchorman, it's hilarious, but it's also action packed. It's a must-watch.
positive · AI labelView post →The Other Guys was pretty funny and that's a straight cop movie www.youtube.com/shorts/sx_-7...

neutral · AI labelView post →The movie The Other Guys is hilarious about this: glamorization of Dirty Harry type SWAT cops while the real heroism is boring white collar investigative work
positive · AI labelView post →I’m watching the movie “The Other Guys” which I have never seen because I am not a fan of Marky Mark and I cannot believe how many times I have laughed out loud. It’s a lot, just to be clear. I’m not being sarcastic. I think this movie is funny.

neutral · AI labelView post →There are some actually great 2010 movies too: INCEPTION! Kick-Ass, The Losers is good like "middle of the road" fare, Knight and Day, Predators, The Sorcerer's Apprentice is a great kids movie, Salt, The Other Guys, and SCOTT FUCKING PILGRIM!
neutral · AI labelView post →I wouldn't completely downplay McKay's involvement, but I think it does say something that his first film without Apatow, The Other Guys, was a step down in quality (still pretty good, but not great) and his first film without Ferrell, The Big Short, was an even bigger step down.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Other Guys having a fuckin RATM song to end the film with a info graphic on late stage capitalism is so insane for a 2010 action comedy. More of it please. Let that peacock fly.
positive · AI labelView post →So The Other Guys is a very entertaining movie. Also Steve Coogan might be the funniest person in films, if you think about it.

neutral · AI labelView post →It’s funny, the film that marked the start of McKay working in that register, The Other Guys, mostly doesn’t have any of it but then ends with a PowerPoint presentation about wage inequality
positive · AI labelView post →The Other Guys is to me the most underrated comedy film ever created. Talladega nights sometimes feels a little forced. Step Brothers is genius but sometimes I’m watching and I think “should we actually BE laughing at this” and then I realize I might have smoked a LITTLE to much

neutral · AI labelView post →For no good reason, I put on "The Other Guys" and yes, it's not funny, but my first impression 5 minutes in is that it has the worst sound design of any movie I've seen in a decade.
negative · AI labelView post →The best part of the 2010 movie The Other Guys? When Samuel L Jackson causes a fiery crash the breaks through the front door of Trump Tower at the start of the movie.
