On "Givin' It Up," his collaboration album with George Benson, Jarreau covered John Legend's piano-based ballad "Ordinary People."

Working from a flexible script he penned with Chris Henchy and evident input from [Ferrell], McKay also puts [Mark Wahlberg]'s trademark intensity to effective use here, especially during a destined-to-be-a-classic sequence in which Ferrell brings him home to meet his "plain" ball and chain, who, much to Wahlberg's all-consuming incredulity, turns out to be smoking-hot [Eva Mendes]. Mendes- who also can be heard cooing the catchy closing theme song, "Pimps Don't Cry," with Gnarls Barkley's Cee-Lo- is gamely appealing, as are all the other guys in "The Other Guys.
