With Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson as a pair of brazen wedding crashers, this buddy/romantic comedy milks a few big laughs from its foolproof premise. Under the direction of David Dobkin (who previously worked with Wilson on Shanghai Knights), the movie ranges from bawdy romp to mushy romance, and that tonal identity crisis curtails the overall hilarity. But when the well-teamed costars are firing on all pistons with fast-paced dialogue and manic situations, belly laughs are delivered at a steady clip. Things get complicated when the guys infiltrate the family of the Treasury Secretary (Christopher Walken), resulting in a romantic pair-off between Vaughn and the congressman's oversexed daughter Gloria (Isla Fisher) while Wilson sincerely woos another daughter, Claire (Rachel McAdams), who's unhappily engaged to an Ivy League cheater (Bradley Cooper). Walken is more or less wasted in his role, but Jane Seymour and Henry Gibson make amusing appearances, and a surprise guest arrives late in the game for some over-the-top scene-stealing. It's all a bit uneven, but McAdams (considered by some to be "the next Julia Roberts") is a pure delight, and with enough laughs to make it easily recommended, Wedding Crashers will likely find its place on DVD shelves alongside other flawed but enjoyable R-rated comedies that embrace a naughtier, nastier brand of humor with no need for apologies. --Jeff Shannon

On the DVD
The "Uncorked" edition of Wedding Crashers adds about 8 minutes of footage to the theatrical release. Of chief interest are extended beach and bathroom scenes between Vince Vaughn and Isla Fisher, and Vaughn's extended confession to Father O'Neil (Henry Gibson), but there are also new scenes featuring Keir O'Donnell as the eccentric Todd and Ellen Albertini Dow as the potty-mouthed grandmother. This edition is billed as unrated because it wasn't resubmitted to the MPAA, but the sexier bathroom scene and coarser confession aren't particularly raunchier than the original film, and there's no additional nudity. You can watch the Uncorked edition once to see the new footage, but for subsequent viewings you'll probably choose to stick with the theatrical release, which is also included on the DVD.

Bonus features consist of two very good commentary tracks, one by director David Dobkin and another by Vaughn and Owen Wilson. Dobkin's is more technically informative, and he specifically discusses why the added scenes were originally cut. Vaughn and Wilson are a little more subdued than might be expected, but they share some laughs, recall some material that was left out, and wander into irrelevant territory such as football and Wilson's dog. Other features include four deleted scenes with optional commentary by Dobkin, and two featurettes covering the making of the film (including the logistics of staging five different weddings, and interviews with the "magic and balloon consultant") and Vaughn and Wilson's meandering discussion of "the rules" of wedding crashing. For a more organized recap, there's a 24-screen text-only list of all the rules. The opening menu is clever, but slow to load after you've watched it the first time. --David Horiuchi

5 out of 5 stars Nerd Check.........2007-06-27

Here's a nerd check... Go out and rent or buy this movie one night. Call a few buddies up, get a six pack (+), or whatever else floats your boat, for each buddy in the room. Have about 3-4 each. Watch the opening scene and if everyone isn't laughing or pretty pumped up then you're probably a nerd. Have the rest of the beer during the rest of the movie. Maybe slip into some scotch or tequila.. because this movie stays funny pretty much the entire way through. If you ever wanted to know what it's like to be a 30 something girl chasing guy that still hasn't grown up then you must watch this movie. These two are seriously "livin' the dream". This is already a classic. Just buy it and if you don't like it today, pick it up in 5 years and you'll figure it out.

5 out of 5 stars Must have.......2007-06-22

Movie lives through Vaughn and Wilson. Both show an easy performance and want the audience to just simply have a good time.

The Story is nothing spectacular. If you liked "Meet the Fockers", you're gonna like this one as well.

Its the actors, who make the difference. Vaughn is hilarious and proofs, that he's much better in comedies than in "serious" movies. Wilson plays himself (as in every one of his movies) and scores a good 2nd place.

Walken is just Walken and thats worth half the ticket. The girls are gorgeous. Especially Rachel McAdams knocked me out. Holy Cow! The Crashers are good fun. Not an new invention of the genre, but especially because of the actors, this movie rocks!

3 out of 5 stars Likable, but disappointing.......2007-05-26

I was hoping for something special with this. This movie boasts both a great cast and great setup. Two 30-something attorneys still holding on to an "Animal House" lifestyle?...oh yeah, Wilson and Vaughn fit the roles perfectly. The supporting cast includes the appealing Rachel McAdams, and the always-great Christopher Walken and Jane Seymour.

The movie itself is marketed as a comedy cut from the cloth of Animal House. And when it keeps that focus...showing the two main characters as personable rogues, the movie works. Everything seems to be in place: Plentiful schemes and partying by our heroes? Check. One great grandiose scam underway? Check. Detestable rival for our heroes? Check.

There are problems however. The movie suffers from bad timing and editing. It also takes itself way too seriously. The timing suffers because while there are some great setups, the payoffs aren't there. Here's an example--while Vaughn is staying at his latest girlfriend's family house, events run out of control to the point that he becomes unwillingly bound to the guest bed. The big payoff is when her dad comes in the room, but the scene just ends. Dad seems to notice the ropes holding Vaughn into place...but there's no real reaction.

The movie is overlong and needed some major editing when the story returns from the visit to the family house. It's pretty easy to guess how the movie will end even halfway through it, so scene after scene of plot development isn't really needed. Likewise, the cameo towards the end was funny, but could have been handled in a single scene rather than dragging on to multiple events and locations.

Finally, the movie treats itself way too seriously. I don't have a problem with a "deeper" moments, or a plot where our heroes see the errors of their ways. But the last half of the movie feels like the comedy has been jettisoned in order to follow Wilson's soul-searching.

All in all, not bad, but not nearly as good as I had hoped. On the other hand, given the stars, there was a real danger that Ben Stiller would make a cameo. Fortunately, he doesn't.

4 out of 5 stars Hilarious comedy!.......2007-05-25

I'm rating this movie in general, not specifically the unrated DVD version...This is a very, very funny movie! Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson make a perfect team, and the underrated Isla Fisher steals every scene she's in. The funny parts (i.e., practically the entire movie) are REALLY funny, with no ridiculous juvenile humor. Yet there are poignant moments that reveal what great friends the two guys are in this movie, whether or not they want to admit it. When one of the guys decides he doesn't want to crash weddings anymore, his buddy goes off to find another partner in crime, and his new venue is absolutely, ridiculously hilarious. Highly entertaining movie that is just as funny the 2nd time around.

Things get complicated when the guys infiltrate the family of the Treasury Secretary (Christopher Walken), resulting in a romantic pair-off between Vaughn and the congressman's oversexed daughter Gloria (Isla Fisher) while Wilson sincerely woos another daughter, Claire (Rachel McAdams), who's unhappily engaged to an Ivy League cheater (Bradley Cooper). Walken is more or less wasted in his role, but Jane Seymour and Henry Gibson make amusing appearances, and a surprise guest arrives late in the game for some over-the-top scene-stealing. It's all a bit uneven, but McAdams (considered by some to be "the next Julia Roberts") is a pure delight, and with enough laughs to make it easily recommended, Wedding Crashers will likely find its place on DVD shelves alongside other flawed but enjoyable R-rated comedies that embrace a naughtier, nastier brand of humor with no need for apologies. --Jeff Shannon

5 out of 5 stars Nerd Check.........2007-06-27

Here's a nerd check... Go out and rent or buy this movie one night. Call a few buddies up, get a six pack (+), or whatever else floats your boat, for each buddy in the room. Have about 3-4 each. Watch the opening scene and if everyone isn't laughing or pretty pumped up then you're probably a nerd. Have the rest of the beer during the rest of the movie. Maybe slip into some scotch or tequila.. because this movie stays funny pretty much the entire way through. If you ever wanted to know what it's like to be a 30 something girl chasing guy that still hasn't grown up then you must watch this movie. These two are seriously "livin' the dream". This is already a classic. Just buy it and if you don't like it today, pick it up in 5 years and you'll figure it out.

5 out of 5 stars Must have.......2007-06-22

Movie lives through Vaughn and Wilson. Both show an easy performance and want the audience to just simply have a good time.

The Story is nothing spectacular. If you liked "Meet the Fockers", you're gonna like this one as well.

Its the actors, who make the difference. Vaughn is hilarious and proofs, that he's much better in comedies than in "serious" movies. Wilson plays himself (as in every one of his movies) and scores a good 2nd place.

Walken is just Walken and thats worth half the ticket. The girls are gorgeous. Especially Rachel McAdams knocked me out. Holy Cow! The Crashers are good fun. Not an new invention of the genre, but especially because of the actors, this movie rocks!

3 out of 5 stars Likable, but disappointing.......2007-05-26

I was hoping for something special with this. This movie boasts both a great cast and great setup. Two 30-something attorneys still holding on to an "Animal House" lifestyle?...oh yeah, Wilson and Vaughn fit the roles perfectly. The supporting cast includes the appealing Rachel McAdams, and the always-great Christopher Walken and Jane Seymour.

The movie itself is marketed as a comedy cut from the cloth of Animal House. And when it keeps that focus...showing the two main characters as personable rogues, the movie works. Everything seems to be in place: Plentiful schemes and partying by our heroes? Check. One great grandiose scam underway? Check. Detestable rival for our heroes? Check.

There are problems however. The movie suffers from bad timing and editing. It also takes itself way too seriously. The timing suffers because while there are some great setups, the payoffs aren't there. Here's an example--while Vaughn is staying at his latest girlfriend's family house, events run out of control to the point that he becomes unwillingly bound to the guest bed. The big payoff is when her dad comes in the room, but the scene just ends. Dad seems to notice the ropes holding Vaughn into place...but there's no real reaction.

The movie is overlong and needed some major editing when the story returns from the visit to the family house. It's pretty easy to guess how the movie will end even halfway through it, so scene after scene of plot development isn't really needed. Likewise, the cameo towards the end was funny, but could have been handled in a single scene rather than dragging on to multiple events and locations.

Finally, the movie treats itself way too seriously. I don't have a problem with a "deeper" moments, or a plot where our heroes see the errors of their ways. But the last half of the movie feels like the comedy has been jettisoned in order to follow Wilson's soul-searching.

All in all, not bad, but not nearly as good as I had hoped. On the other hand, given the stars, there was a real danger that Ben Stiller would make a cameo. Fortunately, he doesn't.

4 out of 5 stars Hilarious comedy!.......2007-05-25

I'm rating this movie in general, not specifically the unrated DVD version...This is a very, very funny movie! Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson make a perfect team, and the underrated Isla Fisher steals every scene she's in. The funny parts (i.e., practically the entire movie) are REALLY funny, with no ridiculous juvenile humor. Yet there are poignant moments that reveal what great friends the two guys are in this movie, whether or not they want to admit it. When one of the guys decides he doesn't want to crash weddings anymore, his buddy goes off to find another partner in crime, and his new venue is absolutely, ridiculously hilarious. Highly entertaining movie that is just as funny the 2nd time around.
