No one will mistake Jeff Reigert (Paul Rudd) for Moses or even Charlton Heston, but they all have something in common. Like Moses and Heston, Jeff's job is to introduce the world to the Ten Commandments. But, in David Wain's loopy comedy The Ten, he is not exactly the picture of virtue...In fact, surrounded as he is by gigantic replicas of the famous stone tablets, the genial host to this special presentation is so busy juggling wife Gretchen (Famke Janssen) and girlfriend (Jessica Alba) that he can barely get through a single commandment without breaking one himself.

A series of unfunny short stories with unfunny dialogue, stupid points (if you can even call the ending of these stories that) and zero of anything that could be called a message at the end. I was drawn to The Ten mainly by the names of the stars... And that makes me all the more disappointed. The only short story that was decent was Thou Shalt Not Murder (the doctor left the scissors in the patient and even after she died he defended his actions at all costs "as a joke"), and the rest was crap. One star for the aforementioned short story, the other at least out of respect for the pretty actresses.

American actors are playing around and goofing off, and it's not funny. It's quite common, but I've never seen such a poorly done anthology comedy before. Even Movie 43 seemed more interesting and occasionally funnier to me. There are some interesting ideas here, but as a whole, it really isn't worth much. This isn't humor; it's just bad improvisation.
