For the irrepressible duo, there are few better ways to drink for free and bed vulnerable women. So when Secretary of the Treasury William Cleary (Christopher Walken) announces the wedding of his daughter, the pair make it their mission to crash the high-profile event. But their game hits a bump in the road when John locks eyes with bridesmaid Claire (Rachel McAdams).

Wedding Crashers is both raunchy and sweet, and features top-notch comic performances from Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson.

B

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.

Sharply honed, if often raunchy.

3.5/4.0

The perfect example of a flawed but ultimately entertaining film.

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.

4/5

The Frat Pack goes from strength to strength in a robust romp that's only marred by the director's apparent inability to say "Cut!"

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.

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.

Wilson and Vaughn make a great time for such an average movie, that gets in some laughs.

An okay comedy. The strength of this comedy lies in the bromance between Wilson & Vaughn.
