Pros: Acting, Writing, Music, Humor Cons: Bodily humor may be too much for some
I know what you’re thinking: “David, what do you mean you never saw There’s Something About Mary until last week?!” Well, you said it pretty well. I just never really had the opportunity to see the most celebrated effort of the Farelly Brothers...

Pros: Perfect cast, very funny Cons: Very crude and rude
What I love about Something About Mary is that if you remove a couple of scenes and change a few lines, it is basically a sappy romance story that could have starred Julia Roberts or Meg Ryan. However, the amazing Farrelly brothers (who brought us...

by CyndiA - Top 50, Jul 28 '01
Pros: The concept is OK. Cons: The delivery is ka-ka.
Peter and Bobby Farrelly (of the “Dumb and Dumber” persuasion) have pieced together a movie that is part comedy and part romance and 100% junior high school, gross out nasty with boogers on top.
There is Something About Mary...

Pros: Wickedly funny script; great performances; skewers "political correctness" mercilessly Cons: Gave me an ache in my side from laughing too hard
When I sat down to compose an entry for the “Favorite Comedy Movie Write-Off” (details at the end of this review), I had a tough choice. First, I thought about submitting the imrovisational humor of the news organizations on November 7th: Dumb and...

Pros: The characters; the actors. Cons: Nothing, really. It's just disgusting.
There's Something About Mary is something that can be enjoyed by those who can empathize with it, and those who have no idea what it's like to be in the main character's situation... Yes, some people see this movie and say, "Ha! I've had no ...

Pros: Funny, charming, great performances, original concepts. Cons: Some of the jokes are very lowbrow and gross, the story is somewhat inconsistent.
If there's any genre that could use improvement, the lowbrow screwball comedy is it. One does not associate such films with authentic romance, intricate plotting, and witty scripting – which, ironically, are all qualities possessed by "There's Something ...

Pros: original, brilliant performances Cons: Lee Evans is badly cast
I first saw this film just over a year ago. I was in hysterics. Watching it again yesterday, I was reminded why. The script is hilarious, the humour is original and the performances are great. This truly is a masterpiece, from director Peter...

Pros: Very funny, surprises, good love story intertwined Cons: May be too crude for some
****Reveals Plot Points But Little About Plot Details and Does Not Give Away Any Jokes or Surprises**** Theres Something About Mary is one of the best comedies to come out of the 90s. Like most Farrelly Brothers movies, there are ...

Pros: The comedy is well-timed, hip-shooting grotesquerie; the DVD set with copious extras. Cons: The movie is still disgusting and queasy to watch.
THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY is a 20th Century Fox presentation, rated R for strong comic sex ...

Pros: The Cast Was The Only Good Thing Cons: The Awful Script, Story, And Humor
There's Nothing About Mary is what this film should have been titled. The story was stupid to the point of ridiculous. For a movie to be stupid and funny is one thing, but when it's stupidly ridiculous.. forget about it! In order for me to appreciate...

Pros: Great story and comical Cons: the soundtrack
The storyline ------------------- Back in his school days Ted was not what you would call good looking or popular, he was a walking disaster. Some how he managed to catch the eye of Mary, who agreed to go to the prom with him. He went to her house ...

Pros: Terrific cast, well staged moments of slapstick comedy Cons: Offensive....but in a good way
Smart, funny, beautiful and kind, a sports fan, a beer drinker and all round cutie pie, it's fair to say that there certainly IS something about Mary.
The Farrelly brothers' third movie (after Dumb And Dumber and the spectacularly gross...

Pros: Funny as anything Cons: A little immature
I had the pleasure of taping this movie when it hit HBO last summer. It's one of the funniest movies of the 90's because of little things that you laugh at usually the second time around. Sure, it's "stupid" comedy like Jim Carrey but as long...

Pros: There's something about Cameron Diaz... She's like mmmmm, mmmmm, good ;) Cons: None that I can think of...
"There's Something About Mary" is a downright hilarious film, one of the funniest flicks I've seen. "There's Something About Mary" was written, produced and directed by that amazing filmmaking-comedy duo of the nineties, the Farley Brothers, and it...
