The beyond-goofy collection of Commandment-inspired vignettes has funny moments, but it's a wildly uneven anthology, with three or four clunkers for every genuine chuckle.

Consensus: Although a few of the sketches that make up The Ten are humorous, the uneven and random tone of the film cause it to fall apart.

Rudd, whose wry deadpan proved indispensable in Judd Apatow comedies like 'The 40 Year-Old Virgin' and 'Knocked Up,' is used here mostly as a straight man, the host in charge of introducing stories that drift along without any real destination.

...brings to mind the fondly remembered Kentucky Fried Movie/Amazon Women on the Moon anthos from the '70s and '80s.

Top CriticA blasphemous parody so painful to sit through it seems designed by the Almighty as punishment for heathens and sinners.

Most of the segments are as clueless about their designated commandment as they are about what's supposed to be funny.

Some bits... are shockingly funny. Others, like the surgeon who causes a woman's death "as a goof," are just shocking without the funny.

Three of the comic segments in The Ten are sort of funny. Three others are just so-so. And the remaining four are just dumb, painfully unfunny and/or downright crude.

The Ten is, while not "bad," nor "unfunny," surely not as good as it had ought to be.

One guesses the talent that signed up for this negligible movie did so out of good will for Wain and Marino. Or maybe they all did it ... as a goof.

we leave the theater feeling like we've just been at a church service that went on a little too long.

Those worried about incurring God's wrath by seeing The Ten, don't concern yourselves -- by watching the film, you've suffered enough.

If you’re looking for ha-ha funny, then The Ten is probably not for you -- you’ll be more likely scratching your head in befuddled wonderment.

Any of the film's concepts would be pretty funny in a tossed-off 'Saturday Night Live' skit, but presenting these absurdist ideas in the context of an impeccably produced albeit low-budget motion picture somehow sucks the comic air from the room.

Yeah we liked this movie (with our self-proclaimed warped senses of humor), but we KNOW it's not for everyone, so thou shalt not blame us if you don't enjoy it as much as we did.

Thou shalt be funny. Thou, in this case, isn't.

Wain is a big fan of offbeat, exaggerated humor that either hits so big you think he's a genius or misses so badly you wonder whether he's sane.
08/23/07
As ridiculous as it is uproariously funny.

To get a decent feel of what to expect from this impossible to pigeonhole production, picture a cross of a typical Monty Python adventure and Woody Allen's Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Sex.
