We found this quite entertaining and the characters were good, but I have to ask who wrote the script - a bunch of schoolboys? Almost every gag was based on d*cks, c*m, big red b*lls, condoms and p*ss. Why? There are plenty of other ways of making gags funny, you know.

The Watch is a great sci-fi comedy with a great premise that's consistently really funny despite it's predictable moments. Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill and Richard Ayoade are all great with good chemistry. Rosemarie DeWitt and Will Forte are both really good. It's well paced, well filmed and Akiva Schaffer's direction is great. The soundtrack is really good and the music by Christophe Beck is good

An unwatchable comedy, "The Watch" stars Ben Stiller as a store manager who puts together a neighbourhood watch group. This group, populated by eccentric individuals, stumbles upon various extraterrestrial creatures, whom they proceed to comically destroy.Lazily written, clichéd and unfunny, "The Watch" once again finds Stiller wasting himself in a straight-man role. Like most modern films of its ilk, "The Watch" also mistakes "neo-realistic" acting peppered with random vulgarity as "irreverence". Vince Vaughn and Jonah Hill co-star, the latter stealing the show as an emotionally unstable police force reject.3/10 - Worth no viewings.
