There's "nothing" about Mary that is entertaining. Stiller and Diaz are the main characters. It's a bit of romance, allegedly, but if you're looking for inspiration or chemistry or charm, forget it. Still, there's nothing wrong with the story. It's just dull. The guy goes on a bit of an odyssey, and the only funny part of the movie is a bit where he stumbles at a rest stop where the police turn on their lights and see a hoard of men engaging in sexual activity with each other. That was pretty funny. Not hilarious, but funny. The rest of the movie is not even dry humor. It's weak romance. But, since it's about ordinary people, I guess it passes for someone who doesn't have any attention deficit disorder at all.
For Ted, prom night went about as bad as it’s possible for any night to go. Thirteen years later, he finally gets another chance with his old prom date, only to run up against other suitors including the sleazy detective he hired to find her.

Critics & Reviews
2 featuredClassic situational comedy, about a guy who meets his old high school crush. The plot revolves around Mary, who is so perfect that she makes everyone fall madly in love with her. It's funny from start to finish. With absurd characters doing absurd things. All the Farrelly brothers' comedies are hilarious, if you don't mind gross humour.
