Summary: How can bad taste be so funny?
Review: I asked myself that question over and over again as I went for the second and third times to the theatre to see "There's Something About Mary", a comedy that pokes fun at every conceivable sacred cow there is. Cameron Diaz is Mary, the girl Ben Stiller has been dreaming about ever since they didn't quite make it to the senior prom years ago. He hires Matt Dillon, a sleazy private eye, to track her down, with the unforeseen outcome that Dillon decides to put the moves on Mary himself. Many scenes beyond risque, "There's Something About Mary" manages to amuse scads of folks--well, not everyone, I guess. I rented this finally to show some family members, who were SERIOUSLY less than amused. The basic take on it was, "Why have you brought this into my home?" So "Mary" is not for everyone, but if you choose your co-audience well, you should still laugh till you cry and then be ashamed of yourself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny
Review: This is one of, if not the funniest comedy ever. It is gross, funny, stupid and smart. It's a good movie to pick you up when your feeling blue.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: There is Plenty About Cameron!
Review: Before I saw this movie, I had not heard a lot concerning exactly what it was about. I was happily surprised when I saw it in the theater in 1998. I saw it on a first date, and we discussed it for hours over a few days afterward. It is not only sexy and funny, but it also shows us complex emotions. There aren't that many comedies that you can pick up something new each time you watch it.

Cameron Diaz, though it was not her first movie, makes her REAL debut in this film. It is a great one. For a comedy, the plot is somewhat complex, but not so much that it is distracting. I also enjoyed all the rediculous complaints from the politically correct viewers who complained that the movie promotes animal cruelty and belittles the mentally retarded. I disagree on both counts.

The only slight disappointment was the marijuana scene. I don't think that many young doctors smoke pot. It just doesn't set a good example. But all in all it one of the best comedies ever for those over 17!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: If you are into vulger & gross....
Review: Was terribly gross, vulger and so so very predictable. Everyone thought this movie was so funny and I was looking forward to seeing it. Instead it was a big waste of money. I do not think I laughed once, maybe just cringed now and then.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW!!
Review: This is such a great and funny movie! I really enjoyed it and I watched it over and over...it was soo sweet although i thought that the movie would have been better if the ending were different... Go watch it if you haven't, cuz it's great!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must See
Review: First of all, out of all the people I know everybody, everybody liked it except for one person (who is a dog-lover). Ben Stiller plays Ted, a guy who has been crazy for a girl name Mary(Cameron Diaz) since high school. When he is older, he hires a sleazy private detective (Matt Dillion), to find Mary because he wants to see her again.

This is a hilarious movie, with lots of slapstick humor. Almost everybody will like this movie. I did (I've seen it 16 times). On the other hand, people who really dislike crude humor will hate this movie. This is one of my favorite movies ever (not just including comedies).

This movie also spawned lots of new comedies, (American Pie, which I thought would be a [take] on this movie, but was also very funny). This movie has lots of classic scenes. This movie has also become a favorite, within my family. If you like this movie, you might also like: Me, Myself, and Irene (another Farrelly brothers movie), Road Trip, American Pie, and Meet the Parents (also with Ben Stiller).

At least give this movie a chance, and rent it, but if you are so inclined and like to buy movies before seeing them, this one isn't dangerous.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is one of the funniest movies ever
Review: This is one of the best movies ever, besides Weekend at Bernies (Andrew Mcarthy is so fine!). But anywayz, I own this movie and it is so funny! If you love 2 laugh, you should see this movie, and if you have already seen it, buy it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not sure where it is going, but it is funny.
Review: This movie is not for someone looking for an entertaining story about relationships. This movie is for those who want a laugh at the crazy things we do for love.

I saw one of the award shows in which Ben Stiller shows the making of the fight scene with the dog. Wrongly, I assumed that I probably saw all the funny parts of the movie. Even knowing what was coming, I could not stop laughing as Ben Stiller fought off the drug-crazed dog. It was slapstick and professional wrestling all in one.

The coverage of urban myths are funny. The whole chain of events of Ben Stiller's character going to Miami are hilarious.

Given this is a farce, I expected some things to be unbelievable. That happens in comedy. The ending though starts to get a little out of whack as all the suitors for Mary wind up in her apartment. It has a feel of being thrown together.

I would recommend this movie to those wanting a good laugh. Ben Stiller is an original.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: ok, so I liked it.
Review: I didn't want to like this movie. It won me over. The gags are funny, the writting is good. I liked the twists and generally sweet nature of the film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Review Ever
Review: This is a very good movie, and I personally love, but you can only like it if you like the idea of it! It is a good story line, boy and fall in love as high school sweethearts, when grown up man wantsto meet up with her agin, hires a private investigator. He finds her, but tell the man that shes ugly etc. etc. and keeps him for himself. Man won't give up and finds her himself, meet and fall in love, and to find out the ending, you will have to watch it for yourself! It is hilarious, so I reccomend anyone who gets the chance to see it, to see it!
