Thanks to Nuffnang , I was
given the chance to attend the Premiere of “The Watch”.
Introduction
Evan (played by Ben Stiller)
is a very active guy in his community and is also the senior manager of the
local Costco store. One day, his friend who is a night security guard was
murdered. He felt sad for his friend and he decided to form a neighbourhood watch
team in order to capture the murderer.
He was only able to recruit three
funny characters who were just fooling around. However, as they discovered that
aliens have invaded their town, they fought against the aliens to
save their neighbourhood from danger.
So, what will the Watch do to save their neighbourhood?

Watch

Review:
“The Watch” is a sci-fi comedy with a
small amount of horror. It features a great line-up of casts such as Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and
Richard Ayoade. Well, to be honest, this movie can really
give a lot of laughter but can also be boring in some scenes.
The
whole movie is basically full of vulgarity whereby 70% of the dialogues include
the 4 letter “F” words and also a lot of vulgar yellow jokes. It is a funny
movie if this kind of humour is your cup of tea.
The
dialogue and script of the film is quite spontaneous in my opinion. It feels
like the comedians are given freedom to speak out the dialogues according to
their own preferences. It is quite laughable. But can become boring too as you
are being desensitized by some yapping dialogues over and over again. Not all
the lines are funny. Some can be quite filthy and annoying too.
It is
a comedy alright. But do expect to see some gory scenes when the alien murders
someone. Do not afraid though. Because there will be jokes and funny dialogues
right after these scenes.
Well,
I think the plot is mediocre and I think there is not much meaningful message
in this film. It is just a comedic version of sci-fi movie “Alien” which is merely
intended to create some laughs for the audience.
It is
fun but definitely not suitable for all categories of audience. I would advise
the minors to stay away from this movie. However, it would definitely be a
quirky FUN ride if you are watching it with a bunch of buddies!
What
I like about the movie:
- Some funny scenes and dialogues (Yeah. Some vulgar jokes in this
movie can really be quite funny)
- Good comedic acting.
What
I dislike about the movie:
- Overuse of vulgarity can desensitize the audience, causing some
lines to become too repetitive and eventually boring.
- Mediocre plot
Verdict:
This movie deserves a 6.0/10.0!
It is
a cheeky, vulgar fun meant for buddies to watch! If you are one of those people who
love dirty jokes, yeah, you will love this movie!
However,
it is not suitable for all audience. Not appropriate for minors. And it’s a
turn-off for people who are coming for some sensible laughs. This is a full
movie with sexually-related jokes. So, if you do not like to spend an hour plus
listening to this kind of jokes, then it would be best that you skip this
movie!
Seen it with dear, yeah not for minor.
