Why I Love It: The Other Guys is the story of two detectives who try to escape mediocrity and replace two fallen hero cops. Terry (Wahlberg) would have already been a great detective hadn’t been for a mistake he made earlier in his career. Allan (Ferrell) is perfectly fine with working as an accountant for the NYPD and staying safe at his desk day in and day out. They inadvertently get involved in a huge case that could make or break their careers.

The Other Guys is easily one of the most quotable Will Ferrell movies of all time. From Wahlberg yelling at Ferrell to stop humming a song, to not being able to understand how someone as hot as Sheila (Eva Mendes) can ever marry Allen (Ferrell); the chemistry between Wahlberg and Ferrell is effortless. Wahlberg could be Ferrell’s funniest collaborator next to John C. Reilly. Featuring fantastic supporting roles from Rob Riggle, Damon Wayans Jr., and Michael Keaton, The Other Guys is a hilarious and often overlooked film in Ferrell’s career.

Signature Ferrell Moment: When Allan explains to Terry why he is choose to become an accountant for the NYPD, he begins to tell him the story of how he basically became a pimp in college. Terry tries to explain throughout Allen’s story that he was managing prostitutes the whole time, but Allen is delusional and thinks he was just scheduling dates. It’s not the funniest part of the movie, but it’s classic Ferrell. –Al Mannarino
