Well, I can’t believe that anyone out there could not have seen this film. It is possibly the funniest film I have ever seen. Possibly the funniest moment is when Mary, played by Cameron Diaz, arrives at Ted’s (played by Ben Stiller) flat, where he has been ‘Preparing’ for the date by ‘flogging his dolphin’. He has a dribble of ‘white stuff’ hanging from his ear and Cameron Diaz reaches up and says “What’s that on your ear? Is it Gel?” she then reaches up and takes some then rubs it through her fringe. She then spends the rest of the night with her hair stuck straight up in the air, hilarious.
This film is littered with other side busting moments of sheer laughter. The way that the directors were not afraid to go with such totally and utterly politically incorrect moments of fun, is probably what made the film that much more enjoyable. With political correctness having reached its ridiculous level it is at now, it was so enlightening to see so many moments of laughter all in one film. I would try and describe a few more but it’s hard to know where to begin. This really is a film that everyone has to see. I am being honest when I say I have seen this film approximately 6 or 7 times and it still cracks me up every time.
What really starts the film off is when Ted and Mary are preparing themselves for the date. Usually you can tell a lot about a film from its introduction, this was no exception. Whilst gazing at a dove on a tree Ted inadvertently catches a glimpse of Mary getting changed, oh dear pervert alert. In his rush to hide his embarrassment Ted does up his fly without putting away all his wedding tackle, ouch!! The incidents that follow that really are hilarious.
All in all this is one of the greatest comical films of all time and is a must see film. Anyone who hasn’t seen this film really doesn’t know what he or she are missing out on. I would recommend this film to everyone, since it is so funny why deprive anyone of it.
