The Other Guys (2010)

I was so excited to go see the latest Will Ferrell movie, "The Other Guys."  In this film, Will Ferrell plays an unlikely detective who prefers paperwork while his partner, played by Mark Wahlberg, is always looking to solve crimes.  This screwball comedy featured a lot of Will Ferrell's typical stunts, and Mark Wahlberg did a great job.  I found the film to be much funnier than I expected, particularly the running gags about Ferrell's car (Prius) and his wife (played by Eva Mendes).  This movie was Ferrell's best in a long time (since "Anchorman" in my husband's opinion, and since "Old School" in mine).  I give this film 3 ½ stars out of 5.
