Will Ferrell, and Mark Wahlberg didn’t seem like the best pair to star in a comedy together. However, according to the box office estimates, their movie “The Other Guys” seems to be a hit with movie goers. It is estimated that the comedy brought in over $35 million in it’s opening weekend.

In the movie, Ferrell, known for his over-the-top humor and Wahlberg, who usually takes a more serious role, teamed up as police partners on the streets of New York. After the city’s two heroes died in action, Ferrell and Wahlberg’s characters are just the heroes the city had been looking for. The two characters seemed to have complemented each other very nicely, as reviews across the internet are mostly very favorable.

Ferrell trying to rebound from last years flop “The Land of the Lost” appears to have done so. He was back to his normal role as a goofy, lovable character.
