What happens when…..your beautiful, sexy girlfriend gives you a fait accompli? She tells you…it’s either the Teddy Bear or me. You decide!
This is the gut wrenching, soul searching, Hamlet like dilemma that John Bennett faces in the new American romantic comedy, TED, starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis, in the leading roles.
Written and directed by Seth McFarlane, TED is a big hit at the box office. I have no idea why! The film doesn’t go anywhere remotely interesting!
It’s formulaic, in the extreme. TED, himself, is a gross out of a character, misogynistic, racist, pipsqueak, dope fiend.
I’ve got my suspicions he’s a character out of AMERICAN PIE in a teddy bear suit.
TED. I couldn’t bear it.
