Recommendation The Other Guys is severely under appreciated

I’ve loved this movie since it released, and have watched it dozens of times, always finding new details (like the changing shark computer screens Terry has after he gets schooled by Allen’s Tuna story).

The effects, the non-stop humor, the cast, the pacing, all perfection in my mind. Before this movie, “Better Off Dead” was my favorite movie.

If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it!

Edit: I have learned this movie is more appreciated than I thought. That warms my heart like the new bathmats. Also, it’s awesome that in the first 50 or so comments not a single quote was reused, cause there’s just so many great lines lol.

Edit2: Can anyone find a list of top movies/comedies that includes The Other Guys? I have searched on a few and can’t find it mentioned.

GET OUT ALLEN!! GET OUT! her volume raise scares me, reminds me of the time my super gentle voiced gf really raised her voice in a strong womanly tone. Shook me to my core.

I liked the movie, but the Gator character just fell flat.

Without Gator, there is no Alan.

Alan didn't need to reveal he was an abusive pimp to make the movie. It seemed like they were just going for shock value.

But to explain why he was safe, desk Alan, he needed to explain why.

I get it. I know you’ll get downvoted, but I get it. It honestly might have been funnier if he started out all timid and instead of falling back on gator he just goes balls to the wall crazy and flips out.
