A bawdy summer comedy for adults and mature teens, this movie features rapid-fire dialogue and sincere affection between best-friend leads and strong chemistry between the actors who portray them. Go to Full Review

Sharply honed, if often raunchy. Go to Full Review

Wedding Crashers remains a fun, chaotic ride with undeniable charm, even if some of its jokes and attitudes haven’t aged particularly well. Go to Full Review

3.5/4.0
The perfect example of a flawed but ultimately entertaining film. Go to Full Review
Miles Fielder The List 04/25/2019
2/5
Operating on the principle that lame verbal and visual gags are funny if the audience is repeatedly pummeled with them, Wedding Crashers sorely lacks a strong script and the kind of inventive direction worthy of its not-untalented leads. Go to Full Review

Elliott L. @GreenBeans Jan 10 They don’t make em like they used too. Todd you tell that mean ocean!!! So funny. I love me some Vince Vaughn. Overall great story- it makes me want to crash some wedding. Chaz is hilarious. Get the man some meatloaf. See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 8 Wedding Crashers is a comedy that surprised me more than I expected. I’m not a huge Vince Vaughn fan, and I usually find his style hit or miss, but pairing him with Owen Wilson made the film work better than I thought it would. Their chemistry is the backbone of the movie, and that "pure stupid comedy" style actually lands quite a few laughs. The screenplay feels uneven at times, with certain jokes stretching on too long or moments that don’t flow as smoothly as they should, but the dynamic between the two leads helps carry the story forward. For me, this is an okay movie that I can rewatch if there’s a reason, but it isn’t something I actively seek out. I understand why audiences love it, and I do think it’s worth watching at least once to fully experience what made it so popular. The movie does hold up for those people that are into this type of comedy. So definitely not putting it down. See more Garry F @ZestyWiggle Nov 25 A fantastically funny rom-com. Some larger than life characters, mixed with some essentric ones. This is peak Owen Wilson and Wince Vaughn and I've watched it so many times. See more Sam S. @Samuel.L.Snackson Nov 23 Comedy gold. Simple as that. This is the kind of movie that earns a perfect score not because it changed cinema but because it is still quotable a decade later with almost anyone. That is a rare kind of staying power. The humor hits every time, the chemistry works, and it delivers exactly what it promises. Laughs, good energy, and a genuinely fun ride. It has the right amount of everything. Stupid funny moments, great one liners, wild situations, and just enough romance to give it heart without slowing it down. I watch movies to enjoy them, not to break them apart, and Wedding Crashers is one of the easiest movies to rewatch because it still delivers. Still funny. Still memorable. Still iconic. See more Lucas J. @LukeJones135 Oct 17 Classic... I liked this movies, feel good always a blast... See more Janet D @DrJanet Aug 29 Great movie that never slows down and never falters!
