Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
View MoreA lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
View MoreExactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
View MoreMostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
View MoreWedding Crashers is a good film. Although it is labeled as a comedy I'd consider it more drama than comedy. Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn partner as wedding crashers to sleep with the bridesmaids. One such detour results in one of them falling for a girl and another in a casual dalliance with her sister. Nice to see Bradley Cooper in a negative shade though this was before he was really a star. Christopher Walken is sublime and overall this is a good film.
View MoreOwen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams, Isla Fisher, Bradley Cooper, Jane Seymour and Christopher Walken star in this 2005 comedy. John (Wilson) and Jeremy (Vaughn) are pals who work together as divorce mediators. In their spare time, they like to crash weddings to meet women. Soon, things change for them when they spend a wild weekend at Secretary of Treasury, William Cleary's (Walken) home after attending his daughter's wedding. John and Jeremy not only meet his odd family, but find romance with his other daughters, Claire (McAdams) and Gloria (Fisher). Cooper (American Sniper) plays Sack, Claire's no good fiancée, Seymour (Somewhere in Time) plays Cleary's wife, Kathleen and Will Ferrell makes an appearance as goofy wedding/funeral crasher, Chaz. This is a good comedy with a great cast and Wilson & Vaughn are great together. I recommend this.
View MoreOwen Wilson and Vince Vaughn are wedding crashers. They crash weddings to score with women. They crash and keep crashing. It's down to a science with rules and everything - what to do and and what not to do. They attend the wedding of Christopher Walken and Jane Seymour's daughter. What they don't count on is Owen getting caught by the love bug with another daughter, played by Rachel McAdams or Vince meeting another daughter who's a "needy clinger/psycho," played by Isla Fisher. And, Vince has bad luck in getting hurt throughout the film, courtesy of Bradley Cooper, who is engaged to Rachel! A foul-mouthed grandma, a gay son, and a tough-as-nails butler are all part of this kooky family, and Jane has the hots for Owen. The film is more like a roller-coaster ride with highs and lows than big laughs, though. The second half sags with more talking than outrageousness. This film really belongs to Vince Vaughn, as he's really good and Will Ferrell has a bit near the end to pick up the pace. All in all, it's raunchy adult fun that is good, but not as fulfilling as "The Forty-Year-Old Virgin."
View More10 years after the release of this movie, it still has several laugh out loud moments and it is still a lot of fun.Plot In A Paragraph: John Beckwith (Owen Wilson) and Jeremy Grey (Vince Vaughn) are best friends who spend their time crashing weddings they are not invited to, to pick up women. Trouble arises when they attend the wedding of the daughter of Senator Clearey (the always brilliant Christopher Walken) and John falls for bridesmaid Claire (Rachel McAdams) and Jeremy gets Sybil with an obsessed clingy bridesmaid Gloria (Isla Fisher) Wilson and Vaughn share a great easy chemistry, which enjoys some easy natural banter. They make the movie what it is!! Isla Fisher and Rachel McAdams are both good and Bradley Cooper (so usually the charming good guy) is surprisingly good as the douche boyfriend of McAdams. Jane Seymour still looks great, and is a lot of fun (although under used) as McAdams promiscuous mother. There is a fun cameo appearance and Keir O Donnell steals every scene he is in!! It is a little over long and it turns in to a typical Rom Com in the final act, but it doesn't stop the enjoyment of it.
