Mark Wahlberg, since the splendidly silly The Other Guys, has morphed into a comic actor and it's paying dividends – certainly better than dim actioners such as Max Payne.
Here he plays a likeable slacker who is stepping out with a remarkably tolerant girlfriend (Mila Kunis) and, more crucially, is best pals with a weed-smoking, potty-mouthed teddy bear (Seth McFarlane, the brains behind this and Family Guy). Another bromance, essentially, but a decent one.
