This absurd romantic comedy, about a couple of thirtysomething rakes who sneak into bridal parties to meet women, is often laugh-out-loud funny, thanks to the considerable charms of its four leads and a few gleefully tasteless sex jokes.
The funniest movie of the summer.
Beyond the amusing shtick spotlighted in the ad campaign, the picture is a self-nullifying blend of raunch and schmaltz.
The flick brings two hours of great big sloppy buck-wild laughs by morphing into a cross between Meet the Parents and Some Like It Hot.
The happily-ever-after result is ultimately as traditional as one of the more disappointing examples of the institution it spoofs.
Through most of it, there is a wonderful comic energy, boosted by a near-perfect selection of songs, and it even manages to show a little heart without bringing the jocular affair to an abrupt halt.
These Wedding Crashers are not for kids. For grown-ups who like their humor rutting and smart, however, they're unexpected but welcome guests.
No one's going to mistake it for a major piece of cinema, but it's the rare person who won't find themselves consistently laughing aloud . This is one reception you won't want to miss.
Wedding Crashers has something borrowed, a lot that's blue, something old and not much new.
The film starts out quirky, but settles for the routine. And characters, instead of deepening, flatten out.
Top CriticMixes sappy sentiment with crude R-rated sexual material, which makes for a sweet-and-salty movie snack.
The one-liners are fast and furious, Vaughn has never been funnier, and the supporting cast is always one-upping each other.
Top CriticPeople are desperate for a good laugh, and there are plenty to be had here.
Two hours isn't always too long for a comedy, but it's certainly too long for this comedy.
The antidote to Hollywood's recent string of refried plots and allegorical disasters. Boldly, it embraces what too few big movies have this summer: fun.
Raucous and happily obnoxious, WEDDING CRASHERS makes fun of liars and cheaters, ultimately celebrating a shlocky version of "true love."
...ultimately done in by the need to abide by Hollywood convention and send everyone home in a joshing good mood.
A comedy which, like many big days, ends up with you wanting to see more of some people, goes on too long and ultimately ends up as a bit of an anticlimax.
... An amusing, if a bit crude, summertime diversion.
You can almost never go wrong with the sight of Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn together, hitting on wedding guests and doing their best to out-funny each other.
