Little eight-year old John Bennett's dream came true when a large-size teddy bear comes to life and becomes his only best friend. Fast forwarding to current day, the 35-year old John is still clinging to his thunder buddy and getting high together.
After dating for 4 years, Lori finally has enough of John's nonsense. He remains to be a boy who never grows up because he is still best friend to a teddy bear. The storyline is pretty much predictable and requires little imagination of how the next scene should proceed.
Ted is not your typical warm, friendly and nice teddy bear. He is a fouled mouth and unruly little teddy bear, sugar-coated by his cute cuddly fuddly fuzzy fluffy exterior. But this makes him rather charming and funny. Yet, he is also a reflection of the owner who simply refuses to take responsibility for anything in his life.
There are a couple of funny moments and jokes made by Ted that I find quite amusing, from his curt remarks that won him a job at the supermarket and subsequently a promotion, to the numerous letters he wrote to Hasbro for his small ****. Crude toilet humours are still worth some laughter when you watch a trashy movie.
Rating: 4 out of 5 fairy clouds. Do manage your expectation. The feeling I got from watching Ted is like you are watching a kid who never grows up, still living in a fantasy world. In reality, John would have been a lousy friend, boyfriend and person, essentially loser. But a handsome face helps you discount his bad.
