    Last Name 1 Name Professor Class May 25, 2017 Ted 2 Delivers on its ‘R’ Rating Alone This paper explores a method of critical thinking by discussing Ted McFarlane’s Ted 2, starring Mark Wahlberg. A sequel to the original, it was likely an attempt to continue to capitalize on the first film, which ended up earning over $500 million worldwide. While Ted 2 did make about twice its nearly $60 million in costs, it did not perform nearly as well as its predecessor and, in general, was far less popular with movie reviewers and consumers. The following sections examine the movie, first, by developing a set of criteria by which to evaluate the movie, second, by justifying these, and third, by gauging whether the film held up to expectations. Included in this analysis are several prominent reviews. These note that Ted 2 may have suffered from displaying a lack of sensitivity, particularly with respect to civil rights issues at a time of racial strife in the United States. Also, the lack of high level comedic material and tendency to devolve into vulgar side-quests may have detracted from the overall comedic quality. The author also develops a personal view based on a screening of the movie. Given these and other considerations, the final section concludes. 1. Brief Synopsis Wahlberg plays a now-divorced character, ‘John,’ who attends Ted’s wedding. Soon afterward, Ted becomes convinced that his only means of saving an already troubled marriage is to have a baby. This will require artificial insemination. A scheme to carry out this plan is interrupted when a court declares Ted property, therefore also annulling his marriage.
