Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

lisafordeay There's Something About Mary is 1998 romantic comedy directed by the Farrrelly Brothers and stars Ben Stiller,Cameron Diaz,Matt Dillon and Lee Evans and tells the tale of a young lovelorn man named Ted(played by Ben Stiller)who is still not over his first love Mary(played by Cameron Diaz).As a teen his prom night went horribly wrong and he lost touch of Mary when he got older. Now grown up he tries to track her down by hiring a Private Detective played by Matt Dillon who also falls madly in love with Mary along with a couple of more guys and Ted has to wonder will he ever be with Mary or not? Overall from start to finish this film was hilarious. The opening with Ben Stiller wearing braces and getting his privates caught in his zipper of the trousers cracked me up and Keith David(who plays Cameron Diaz's stepdad in this film) with his reaction to it was hilarious. Another was about the dog who took a sleeping pill and the Private Detective had to try and bring him back to life again. The chemistry between Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz was very well played as I love both actors having grown up watching these two evolve(I think this film introduced me to Ben Stiller,while The Mask was the film that introduced me to her as that was her film debut with Jim Carrey in 1994).Now I know what your saying is it as funny as Dumb & Dumber.....not quite but it does come in a close second to that film. 8/10 B+

merelyaninnuendo There's Something About MaryMultiple characters and their sub plots are the key in here for it thickens the plot and gives enough space and increases the probability of the comic sequences and humor to fit in. There's Something About Mary is fast paced with gripping screenplay and flat out childish humor to rely upon through out the course of it. Cameron is in the centre of it and still feels like she is supporting the other actors like Ben and Matt who are in amazing form with the perfect comic timing. Farrelly Brothers offers enough material in 2 hours and surprisingly an unpredictable script with enough twists to keep investing in it. There's Something About Mary starts off as one of the guilty pleasure movie but turns out quite a reasonable one and a genuine heart with in it.

Mr-Fusion Here's how you know you're watching a keeper: when Brett Favre shows up with his complete lack of screen presence, yet the laughter continues unabated."There's Something About Mary" is every winning virtue of the Farrelly Brothers served up in an oddball love story. It moves seamlessly from an awkward teen movie straight into middle-aged depravity. Just an array of sleazy characters, and they are hysterical; chiefly Keith David, Matt Dillon and Chris Klein. As if the one-liners aren't enough, you've got the story of Ted's prom night from Hell, or the story of Mongo the special kid on a leash.This had me in stitches back in the '90s and it still does today. I can't think of that many comedies from such a hit-or-miss decade that still hold such lasting value. I can't speak highly enough of this.9/10

AudioFileZ This movie needs another review like California needs a drier climate. Seriously, I can't help myself because this might just be my favorite comedy of all time.This is the perfect storm of political incorrectness matching the talents of Ben Stiller, Matt Dillon, Chris Elliott,Cameron Diaz, and The Farrelly Brothers hitting everyone's sweet-spot all at once. Then there's the devices of Jonathan Richman's surreal interjection and the musical soundtrack itself. What a great atmosphere to spring a hilarious story from! Plus, for all the "take no prisoner's" satire there's an actual heart too. The movie moves quite well as it paints loser Ted growing up, finding his love, tripping everything up (as expected, yet hilariously not as expected), and never forgetting about…Mary. The journey he takes is absolute gold. So many funny things making repeated viewing not just mandatory, but even better.Now, I think I must admit this kind of comedy isn't so wonderfully entertaining to everyone. In fact, it's kind of a cult group who, many years later, still count this as a comedic watershed moment. But, if you like it in the first 15-minutes then it just gets better and you know who you are. I wish this kind of magic could be more of regular thing. I mean The Farrelly's were really on to something here. I've enjoyed many of their other movies such as Dumb and Dumber and Me, Myself, and Irene (this one almost as much). But, as of 2014 the latest version of D&DTo (liked it well enough, not great though) makes it clear there's been a big void in the years since. I'll just watch this again to help fill it in! It's that good in my humble opinion.
