A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014)


A funny thing happened while I was watching this movie. And then a couple more funny things happened. There may be more funny things that happened in this film, than in "Ted" and all three cartoon sitcoms MacFarlane has on Fox combined. This isn't to say that the movie is really good, it just happens to be an improvement. Out of its 116 minute run-time, there is about 30 minutes worth of quality material. However, solid performances, and some expert cinematography are present in this film, and they were damn hard to ignore. MacFarlane even packs this movie full of some seriously funny cameos that make some of the lulls easier to take. I was 100% shocked at much I actually enjoyed the best parts of this movie.
