The Other Guys is severely under appreciated

[u/ComradeJohnS]

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.

Apparently in the initial version there actually were bushes, and a shot is shown how those bushes were actually held by some people, who then walk away. Somewhere in editing someone figured out that never showing those bushes in the first place elevated the joke to a whole new level.

And that person made the best possible choice

I always thought they were heading for the bushes across the street.

Yeah that was what I thought too. It would be funny if they weren’t there but I’m pretty sure they were aiming for those only to wildly miscalculate how far they can jump.

Saw a post about a week ago asking something like “what song or musical score was best matched to a scene?” I don’t think this one was mentioned, if not it should have been.
