Summary

Two long time friends (Wilson and Vaughn)spend their time crashing weddings, meeting ladies and creating a lifetime of uproarious memories.

Review

The only problem with this movie is trying to figure out where it ranks in the pantheon of classics from Wilson, Vaughn and their comedic cohorts (Ben Stiller, Will Farrell, Luke Wilson). It’s hard for me to rank any film above Old School, so we’ll put this in second place for now a surprisingly close second place.

The laughter never really subsides throughout this flick. As two party goers who are never actually invited to the wedding party, Wilson and Vaughn have unlimited situations in which they can be goofy, fake sincerity and elicit humor from their dead panned one liners. As usual, Vaughn can especially somehow keep a straight face as he delivers dialogue that only his selfish, chauvinistic character could take seriously. Wilson is the one who begins to actually fall for a certain female (played by Rachel McAdams from The Notebook, so women are sure to embrace this movie, too) and plays his typically sensitive, albeit hilarious, role perfectly.

Somehow, both of these actors manage to play similar characters in almost every film, yet find ways to remain fresh and entertaining. This is no different. Absurd sexual situations and perpetual sarcasm contribute to a classic comedy for the ages.
