Absolutely Brilliant!

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Simply one of the best films. It is so money and doesn't even know it. That's the rub.

The important thing about the very low budget Swingers is that it involved people who went on to become Hollywood titans. It was directed by Doug Liman (his second film) written by and stars Jon Favreau and features a star making role from Vince Vaughn.Both Favreau and Vaughn are noticeably younger and leaner. I guess Favreau wrote a film that in some ways is autobiographical.It is a nod to films like Diner and Marty. A film about unemployed showbiz types looking for that break in the career ladder which at the moment consists of rejection. They hang out together in clubs and bars, they act out like they are a low rent rat pack going to Vegas and dancing in retro swing clubs.Mike (Favreau) is a comic who has come to Hollywood from New York and struggling to find work and get over his hang up with his girlfriend who has broken up with him. His best buddy is energetic, motor mouthed Trent (Vince Vaughn) who wants to cheer up Mike and get him laid. Trent is a shark when it comes to women, he has no problems chatting them up and then devouring them.Together with two other hipster buddies they go to Vegas to cruise and make out. Mike hooks up with a girl but makes a mess of leaving a message in an answer phone.The film has attitude, laughs and an edginess. It is a Generation X tribute to the ensemble guys comedy, in some ways inspired by Woody Allen with its nervy humour and makes good use of Los Angeles and Las Vegas locations, which looks familiar to me as I visited both cities around the time the film was released.

My favourite feel good movie, young Vince oozes with style and confidence, a must watch! The movie is about a young Jon Favreau who plays a struggling stand-up, who has just split up with his girlfriend and his friends encourage him to get back out there and chat up new young ladies. The plot is loosely based on Jon Favreau's life and Favreau uses his own apartment in the filming of this low budget indie movie. Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn had previously met on the set of Rudy and after they cemented a good friendship together Vince got the part co-staring next to Favreau. This in my opinion is still Vince Vaughn's finest performance as he shows off all his traits: confident, cheeky and swagger in his way with the ladies. The movie is not just about Jon Favreau's character (Mikey) bouncing back from his recent relationship but it's equally about the power of friendship.

Mike (Jon Favreau) is suffering from the end of his six year relationship. He obsessively waits for her phone call as he tries to make it as a comedian. His friend Rob (Ron Livingston) from back east is struggling to get into acting. Trent (Vince Vaughn) is his talkative friend with the infamous words "Vegas Baby". The gang of friends try to pick up Babies and convince Mike that he's Money.Vince Vaughn is giving a way over the top performance. Jon Favreau's character is a little sad and pathetic. Their combo is amusing until it becomes annoying. What sold me is the scene with the phone calls. The first three calls are amusing. Then the movie goes for broke and gets to another level. There is pathetic and then there is really funny pathetic. As a writer, Jon has created a memorable character with Vince. It's the second movie for director Doug Liman and pulls it all together.
