Wedding Crashers 2.5 /5

The premise is very funny...guys who crash weddings to have fun and meet girls. Women love them, guys want to be like them.

You know these guys will have to be taught lessons and change their ways, but how well the it's done determines how good a film this would be.

I totally didn't buy the relationship between Vince Vaughn's character, Jeremy, and the young psycho chick, Gloria.

On the plus side, Rachel McAdams was very good as someone engaged but secretly, very reluctantly so, to a dough head from one of the "right" business families. Isla Fisher, last seen in I Heart Huckabees as Heather, is excellent as the young pyscho chick. Chris Walken and Jane Seymour were fine. Vaughn and Wilson make a good comedy team. They are superb to watch as they fake their way through one wedding and reception after another. They have it down to a science.

It's silly fun and I'm glad I saw it, but don't expect greatness here.

Winnipeg's own Weakerthans open the closing credits with "Aside" from Left and Leaving.
