What we have here is a stupid idea, executed by the creator of FAMILY GUY, for audiences who like ANIMAL HOUSE or PORKY'S humor. That is maybe for teen aged boys who can sneak into see this R rated dribble, or frustrated aging collegiate type fraternity boys. A little boy wishes his Teddy bear would come to life, to have a friend, and the wish comes true. Unfortunately, the bear is a SNUGGLES fabric softener bear lookalike, who is possessed/inhabited by a 45 year old foul-mouthed Bostonion Southie male. Sound like fun? It's not. The stupid humor and lines go on and on. One scene even has the bear whipping Mark Wahlberg buttocks in a hotel room during a fight. IF indeed this is your kind of humor...you are going to laugh and laugh and lap it up like candy. I don't want my money back, as the movie is exactly what I thought it would be. Just the "bear" facts....
Cons idiotic fraternity humor
No, I do not recommend this movie.

A moving film, cast impeccably well, right on down to the six working class sisters. Melissa Leo as the mother steals the film; Christian Bale will be nominated for best actor. The audience applauded "during" the film..when was the last time you've seen that? Mark Wahlberg handles the role perfectly. NOT just another ROCKY...it is a movie of its own...at times you feel like you are really there! DO NO MISS THIS ONE!
A true BOURNE "wannabe". MInimal dialogue, the hour and a half is spent chasing Angelina, who looks terrific covered in dirt or blood! This has all been done in TV shows like MISSION IMPOSSIBLE and more. It didn't bring anything new or exciting. This SALT has no pepper!
THIS movie has a story and a plot! Matt Damon is a young Harrison Ford always great in his roles that deliver suspense. And Greg Kinnear racks up so many diverse roles since his silly origins of hosting TV's TALK SOUP, this is just another one for him! The documentary style hand-held camera work gets a bit wiggly and annoying at times. But the movie really makes you think about "what if" there was a true cover up of WMD's not existing in IRAQ from the outset of the war. Go this film to be entertained, and concentrate on the plot, at least there IS one...AND script....which THE HURT LOCKER had neither.
