62Kernel Score — Generally Favorable, 0 reviews
The Kernel take
Ted's 62 Metascore represents a genuinely profitable critical-commercial sweet spot: a $50M investment that's returned over half a billion globally while landing in "Generally Favorable" territory.
Director track record: Seth MacFarlane
Ted (62) sits well above Seth MacFarlane's own 46-point average across his 3 scored films — his best-reviewed work to date, in a filmography that has otherwise struggled with critics.
Lead track record: Mark Wahlberg
Ted (62) sits well above Mark Wahlberg's own 54.8-point average across his 27 scored films, though it trails his career peak of Boogie Nights (86) by a notable margin.
