As you walk into this movie and watch the first 5 minutes, you know you are in for the ride of your life. If your eyeballs do not come straight out of your socket, then this movie is not for you. Well maybe it is.

We start off by meeting John (Wilson) and Jeremy (Vaughn) both can be explained as pimps. They go to weddings and get the girls. Every time they leave with a girl. But they decide to do one last wedding before the season is over. Mr. Cleary's (Walken) daughters wedding. They both meet his two daughters. One thinks he is in love and the other thinks the devil is against him.

And everything is hell from there on. I don't want to spoil the movie for you but it is a great movie. Definitly the funniest of the year. It's not one of those movies with a few funny parts but the whole movie is funny.

I definitly recommend this to you if your in for some good laughs.

Vaughn and Wilson pull off what without them would surely never transgress mediocrity. With their wit and charm they win you over along with most of the audience (the members who have nice tastes in humor, anyway).

I deem the idea behind this movie to be pretty- smart. I think a movie like this works because of obviously the actors and their niche in humor, but also that we can relate to guys like these: Sure, not all of us are divorced and rarely will you find people who go and crash weddings like they do (most people these days don't know the meaning of having a good time). But, how we can relate; how I related with this movie, is through the fact that they're having a hard time growing up and getting involved with long-term relationships.

Also, I felt comfortable watching the movie with the two main actors because, I know this sounds odd, but one of them is a giant and one of them has an off-kilter nose. The movie works. I'm impressed with how the fun yet odd idea is made very fun and not-so-odd. The actors buttress this with the way they connect to us; the way they connected to me when I watched it.

Go see it. You may not enjoy it as much as I have but the price you pay in dollars is surely worth the receival you get in laughs. Have fun friends, go out and enjoy this movie. 9/10

I would also have to reccomend this one.  Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson make a great team, and it is surprising that they have not been in more films together.  And though it is a team effort, it truly is Vaughn that steals every single scene he is in.  My only real problem with the movie is 1.) Will Ferrell just isn't as funny as he should be in such a role and 2.) it's a bit longer than it probably should be.  And while it remains funny, it does get to be a bit too much towards the end.  Other than that, this is a definite "Thumbs Up" title.

***1/2 out of ****

Wow! First Bad News Bears, and now Wedding Crashers? And now on the waiting list is 40 Year Old Virgin? Some good comedies coming out as of late. And this right off of the rush of (good) horror movies like Land of the Dead and Devil's Rejects. Good times.

I went into this expecting something along the lines of Old School, that sort of movie. That's not to far from the truth. Wilson and Vaughn are once again excellent together, though I think the real highlight was Isla Fisher as Gloria. Can you say psychotic? The best exchange, by far, has to be when she is patching up Vince Vaughn's leg in the bathroom.

Gloria Cleary: Don't ever leave me.
Jeremy Grey: Oh, I won't.
Gloria Cleary: Good, cause I'd find you!

At which point she cackles like a maniac and stares at him like she's going to eat him. Though considering her, she very well may.

Everyone else involved plays their part perfectly. Keir O'Donnell as the homosexual artsy son who paints a life size nude portait of Vaghn, Christopher Walken as the politician father who at times doesn't know how to react, Jane Seymour as the wife with the overactive sex drive. Will Ferrell and Dwight Yoakam both have small roles, though Farrell didn't really seem to fit in this one. Yoakam on the other hand was perfect in the opening scene.

While O'Donnell and Walken both have relatively small roles, it's good while it lasts. Walken's best has to be when he walks in on Vaughn, tied to the bed (Gloria doesn't think she's being adventurous enough, despite having drained Vaughn of all bodily fluids, his words), and simply sits there telling a stroy. Part way through he tests the ropes, then happens to spot the nude portrait. He simply shrugs and leaves.

I enjoyed it, I'm going to go ahead and give it four.

Casting was perfect.  

You like the good guys and didn't the bad one.  When you like the actors and enjoy being a voyeur of their episodes, thrown together with a funny funny script you have a winner.  Christopher Walken was a comic suprise even though I was waiting for him to pull a gun and kill someone.  The only cheap shot was a semi-copy of The Graduate film with Jane Seymour showing off her new and imporved surgical hooters.

It was just like being in middle school again watching this terrific movie.

I was surprised by this one... really. I thought I was gonna hate it, cause I can't stand Owen Willson... However, Vince Vaughn made this movie so flat out enjoyable to watch... he pulled off every one of his scenes with a charming ability to over cast anyone one screen with him.

I liked the boyfriend too... he was a riot. I thought he was brilliantly cast in this role.

As a whole, I wouldn't normally like this kind of film, I wouldn't... but for some reason or another... I did.

I give it two thumbs up.
