The Watch

Three very funny guys (Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn, and Jonah Hill) each bring their own comedic style to this quad buddy film/sci-fi spoof. Unfortunately, Alien found it only mildly amusing as the script felt more ad libbed than carefully crafted. Spawn from a mysterious murder, a neighborhood watch is organized, but it's more of a boys club than vigilante squad. The film pokes fun at "E.T.", "Close Encounters", "Alien", and Costco as the heroes make their big discovery and become paranoid suspecting everyone. It's "R" rated, mostly for language and sexual content, but with some brief nudity.

Alien gives it 2 ½ "bowling ball of destruction" stars out of 4.
