The Other Guys has its critics, but far more fans. We suspect this is partially because of the giddy relief that it did not really follow in the same fetid footsteps as Ferrel's former films. Yes, that was on purpose.
Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson played the big hero cops in the beginning, plot happens, and Ferrel and Wahlberg end up taking over the big case.
Mark Wahlberg is given kudos for doing fairly decent at playing the straight man in a comedy, Samuel parodies himself and The Rock channels Last Action Hero. Oh, Rock, I would walk to the other side of the fence for you.
Ahem!
Some critics are never happy, of course, but in the summer where the Other Movies suck, the Other Guys shines.
