Wedding Crashers Movie Review

August 12, 2005
Genre: Comedy

Starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn
Directed by David Dobkin

A comedy about 2 single guys taking advantage of weddings as a way to hit on women until one of them falls in love with a bridesmaid played by Rachel Mccadams and tries to win her heart.

The Good: I’m a guy who loves crude comedies such as Zoolander, Old School, Meet the Parents, and Dodgeball just to name a few and Wedding Crashers is part of that tradition. Vince Vaughn pretty much stole the show being the ultimate funny man with the quick mouth. Owen Wilson also played out well as the main story character. The cameo of Will Ferrell added a little flavor to the movie.

The Bad: Let’s put it this way, the stars saved the movie. The pacing was rather slow and nothing seemed to stand out. Part of the fault was that cuts were too obvious, I was waiting for scene where Jane Seymour takes it all off. Nothing unforgettable. I was surprised that the movie made it past the 2 hour mark.

Movie Recipe: ”Meet the parents” meets “Hitch” meets “American Pie”.

The Verdict: I give Wedding Crashers 3 out of 5 stars. Don’t get me wrong, I love this kinds of comedies but nothing really stands out except the actors. It had moments but was not able to shine bright. Guys would love this movie and if you like Old school, Meet the Parents, and Something about Mary, then you should definitely watch this.
