Review of The Watch (2012) by David R — 29 Mar 2013

I hope The Watch develops into a cult, I think it's heavily misunderstood. 2012 wasn't a great year for R-rated comedies, but this really wasn't one, even considering the stars. It's slick as a sci-fi horror, keeping you guessing the mystery, and it really isn't that obvious.

It's also great to see the reunion of Vaughn and Stiller, both of who have really lost their mojo since 2004. Hill, sort of disappointed, well really because 21 Jump St was a similar, better role.

The Watch is vulgar, and it gets too vulgar at times, I wish it was just kept on the level of swearing, but the jokes do fly when they do, but just don't expect this to be the next "Ben Stiller" comedy, it's more akin to Ghostbusters.
