This lame sci-fi comedy was supposed to be for teens, but was re-written by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg to be aimed at adults. The result is a movie that doesn't work for either.

Improvisation is definitely The Watch-word, with Vaughn and Hill in particular winging just about every line they speak - most of them filthy, few of them funny.

What should have been at least Ghostbusters lite ends up sliming audiences with sloppy seconds.

"The Watch" is a Dream Team in which no one's drawn up any plays and nobody passes the ball. Everybody just shoots and hopes for the best.

Rote, crass and worst of all, totally laugh-free, it inspires you to exact your own brand of vigilante justice.

The four leads are funny, separately and together.

It's a mash-up of blah buddy comedy and gross-out CGI monster splatter, with nary a laugh to be had.

Light entertainment at its lightest, The Watch does at least elicit some laughs.

"The Watch" takes the same ethos of male bonding, obsession with sex and sardonic violence that has proved so profitable in recent years on yet another summer spin.

A film packaged as pure product, aiming to snare the combined markets for loudmouth comics, sci-fi action and, er, Richard Ayoade - who, however seemingly misplaced, is the freshest thing here.

A laughably inept comedic wasteland in which the only things harder to come by than laughs are reasons not to bolt halfway through and ask for a refund.
