Goodbye Old School, Hello Wedding Crashers!


“Wedding Crashers”
Starring: Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Isla Fisher, Christopher Walken
3 and a half stars out of 4


Wedding season is here and there are honestly no other men we want to spend it with except for Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, shall I give the review first or talk about there chemistry? These two are better then Stiller and Wilson, better then Ferrell and anyone, period. They have such a knack for pissing each other off, but a better knack for knowing each other inside out as they star as best friends John(Wilson) and Jeremy (Vaughn).

There season of crashing weddings is a long horny season filled with drinking, dancing, and sliming there way along with there fabricated stories and pasts into as many girls’ pants as possible. These guys are fun to watch and that’s what makes this such a classy and sleazy comedy, it’s rare, very rare how we can watch these two guys get caught up in off the wall events for a full two hours, it doesn’t lag, it actually a full two hours of raunchy, comedic bliss that appeals to pretty much anyone who can appreciate work done by Vaughn or Wilson.

After about the first 20 minutes, they feel pooped out and partied out after the wedding season in there books is officially over, heaven comes early when the “Kentucky Derby” of all wedding’s strolls along. They know they will have to bring out there best game in order to be sufficient enough for any girl at the wedding. It’s an elegant wedding, the daughter of the Secretary of Treasury is tying the knot, and John and Jeremy must study what they are getting themselves into before diving in head first. They quickly discover they are trying to bed both daughters of Mr. Clearly (Walken) who happens to play the Sec. of Treasury to a tee. His daughters Gloria (Fisher) and Claire (McAdams) are first only targets by the John and Jeremy, but John quickly falls for Claire who is isn’t available due to a relationship with an untrustworthy snake, and then there’s Gloria, she must be noted as being played by Isla Fisher because she steals every scene that she’s involved in. Gloria isn’t shy when it comes to sex and Jeremy quickly learns that after she basically jerks him off under the dinner table, at first Jeremy is freaked out completely but then learns to love her freakish ways.

Everything will go fine for the duo just as long as they aren’t revealed as wedding crashers, while they spend there weekend with the Clearly family and others. The events that take place feel like Meet the Parents events, but with a younger group of funny guys and gals that take charge of every scene and comedic romp. This is such a fresh movie, it will be compared to being on the same comedic level as Old School, but in my opinion it blows far past it, the laughs are bigger, the acting is actually worth noting, and Vince Vaughn is a genius along with vastly underrated Owen Wilson.

It’s so very safe at this point to call this the funniest movie of the summer, if I would have seen it on January 1st, I would still call this the hands down funniest movie of the year. Drop what you’re doing, and attend “Wedding Crashers.”
