Chris Kaltenbach in the Baltimore Sun [says] that the first two thirds of the movie is "very funny, a classic guilty pleasure that revels in its basest elements. If only it didn't get all mushy and profound in the third act, this movie could have been a classic, period."

Stephen Hunter in the Washington Post compares the ending with "that deflating moment in the classical Don Rickles canon when, after tearing the world collectively a new nether passage, he'd turn to Johnny and say, 'But you know, we're really all brothers under the skin blah blah blah blah.' Ugh."

Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn are given high marks for their portrayals of two men who crash wedding parties looking for dates. "Vaughn's overbearing slacker-wiseguy and Wilson's blissed-out surfer dude blend into the ultimate patty-melt of slob-comedy personas," writes Gene Seymour in Newsday.And Kyle Smith concludes in the New York Post: "Vaughn and Wilson do cool insincerity as well as anyone since Chevy Chase and Bill Murray chased skirt. Hollywood should keep pairing them until we get sick of them."

Next week some time? I think it would be great to see a comedy in the theatres, first time in quite a while...

HEY. I was making a joke. 2 threads, similarly named:

Fantastic Four
Fantastic Two - Wedding Crashers

Not the same thing.

Why not change the topic to "Comics/Comedies in theatres now" ?
