When John Bennett (Mark Wahlberg) was a little boy, he made a wish that Ted (Seth MacFarlane), his beloved teddy bear, would come alive. Thirty years later, foul-mouthed Ted is still John's constant companion, much to the chagrin of Lori (Mila Kunis), John's girlfriend. Though Lori's displeasure is exacerbated by the pair's constant consumption of beer and weed, she's not the one who's most disappointed with John; it may take the intervention of John's boyhood toy to help him grow up at last.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Ted's "romance versus bromance" plot is familiar, but the film's held aloft by the high-concept central premise and a very funny (albeit inconsistent) script.

Deborah Ross The Spectator 09/01/2018
The greatest compliment I can pay Seth MacFarlane's Ted is that although this is essentially one of those slacker, stoner comedies, and such comedies aren't really my thing... this did make me laugh quite a bit. Go to Full Review

It is a film that seems to have an endless middle. Go to Full Review

4/5
There's just enough mileage in the gag to keep the movie spluttering through an energetic series of pop-cultural references and broadly staged orgies of profanity. Go to Full Review

8/10
With Family Guy-style jokes and references to Springfield, the humor, based on current topics such as homosexuality, sex, and other vices... permeates all elements of the film, from comedy to romance, suspense, action and comedy. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

2/5
"Ted," while extremely funny in individual jokes here and there, suffers from that lame and predictable story, especially for something that advertises itself to be as daring. Go to Full Review
Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review 10/04/2022
3/4
Ted becomes a character that’s more than just a plot device or source of vulgar humor; he’s one of those oddly real characters brought to life by subtle and effective special FX. Go to Full Review

A waste of time watching even half of the movie—I skipped the second half. Imagine sacrificing everything to put your son through film school, and his first film turns out to be this garbage. A teddy bear, a symbol of birth, innocence, and early childhood, here smokes crack, snorts cocaine, and f...s prostitutes. Truly fitting for the pedophilic industry. Makes you want to vomit 🤮 A total disaster! See more DZ E @Ziggy88z Jan 4 85/100 I love that talking teddy bear See more Grayson G. @Gray.
