I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This movie is not horrible. It's not good. I don't hate it. I know some people will definitely love it, but it was not what I was expecting, just not my cup of tea. Not the funniest comedy I ever saw, not close. The two main characters spend very little time actually crashing weddings. Instead, over half the movie takes place at the mansion of this one family, which is comprised of some of the most cringeworthy, horrible, and incredibly creepy in an uncomfortable way people. It was hard to watch a lot of the characters. The chemistry between the main friends and the main couple was however good. So, I don't know, if you like instalove, boobs, and incredibly uncomfortable situations, watch it? If you don't? Don't.

The story is one of those clichés of comedies; starts a movie with a premise based on a lie, let it develop and peaks and see how the dust settles after the moment of truth, which because it's a comedy, is sure to be a happy ending. The story gets to be more romantic than comedic in a very sort while, particularly because the movie only uses a lengthy montage of scenes to depict the mischief of the wedding crashing. Then the movie gets slower as the romance takes over, and to be frank it gets to be boring. The comedic inserts after the romance part kick in makes the movie instead a confusing one since those inserts are horribly weird. The moments with Todd are well freaky and even the character Sack fits in just to complete the movie's turning point. The acting overall is also quite lame. Owen Wilson didn't really progress and depicts his character here almost the same as any other of his characters. Vince Vaughn's craziness completes the comedic angle perfectly. It's too bad that they whole comedic set only lasted well for a while. Rachel McAdams also didn't really gave any difference to her role. Bradley Cooper's surely a waste in this movie

Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn are wedding crashers. They crash weddings to score with women. They crash and keep crashing. It's down to a science with rules and everything - what to do and and what not to do. They attend the wedding of Christopher Walken and Jane Seymour's daughter. What they don't count on is Owen getting caught by the love bug with another daughter, played by Rachel McAdams or Vince meeting another daughter who's a "needy clinger/psycho," played by Isla Fisher. And, Vince has bad luck in getting hurt throughout the film, courtesy of Bradley Cooper, who is engaged to Rachel! A foul-mouthed grandma, a gay son, and a tough-as-nails butler are all part of this kooky family, and Jane has the hots for Owen. The film is more like a roller-coaster ride with highs and lows than big laughs, though. The second half sags with more talking than outrageousness. This film really belongs to Vince Vaughn, as he's really good and Will Ferrell has a bit near the end to pick up the pace. All in all, it's raunchy adult fun that is good, but not as fulfilling as "The Forty-Year-Old Virgin."

Doesn't sound too promising, does it? Two aging adolescents -- Vincent Vaughan and Owen Wilson -- plan to crash lots of wedding in order to score.They'll introduce themselves as distant family members with adventurous but tragic pasts. They'll invent tales of their achievements. They'll wear Purple Hearts to the events. And it works. They stuff themselves on cake, oysters, and champagne and the beautiful girls are all over them. They dance to a hora at Jewish weddings. At Irish weddings, they present themselves this way, "My name is Sean O'Ryan and I want to get drunk."Then the inevitable happens. They crash the wedding party attended by the Secretary of State. (John McCain and James Carville do a cameo.) The Secretary is Christopher Walken and he has two gorgeous young daughters. Vaughan falls for the maniacal nympho, who is half his height and given to S/M. Wilson falls for the sensible Rachel McAdams, although she is already engaged to a snooty ex-preppy. It all works out. That's why this can be called a romantic comedy.Actually, the first half of the movie is pretty funny. Yes, the whole shtick is out of one of those raunchy teen-aged comedies, but these guys are funny.Vincent Vaughan is a tall, beefy loudmouth who seems to have trouble with comedy, although he's got some good lines. He's great as a cheerful villain, as he was in "Clay Pigeons," but light-heartedness almost defeats him and there's a speed bump whenever he has a scene.Owen Wilson, on the other hand, is good at light comedy. It's hard to imagine his doing anything else. When I first saw him on screen I didn't like him because he resembled Robert Redford, whom I loathe for being more handsome than I, but Wilson grows on you. You get to find that uneven nose endearing. It wanders down the center of his face, an archipelago of flesh.Christopher Walken is immediately funny. He can't help it. Even in dramatic parts, those wondering eyes, that curious gargle of a New York voice, conjure up the conviction that he thinks being in a movie is absurd, that EVERYTHING is absurd. Maybe he OD'd on Sartre in his youth. He'd be funny as King Lear.The guru behind this wedding-crashing business is Will Ferrell. I wish he were funny because he tries so hard, but maybe that's the problem, in addition to his chthonic visage. By the end, he's given up crashing weddings and now crashes funerals. He's not as funny as the doddering old mother he sponges off, the tiny lady who suddenly belows, "Chazz! It's a friend of yours! Get the f*** down here -- and put away your skateboard!" The "girls" are as good as the boys. Better even, because both Rachel McAdams and Isla Fisher are pretty girls. Fisher, as Walken's younger daughter, whacks off Vaughan under the table at the family dinner and leaves him tied up at night so that the family's creepy homosexual son can have a go at him. There is a rich hint of lunacy in her squint.Rachel McAdams is revoltingly cute. She could have been drawn by a cartoonist. Every singular feature is in its rightful place and her bottom wriggles deliciously when she walks.I got a kick out of it until it bogged down in its second half, when it got a little maudlin about true love being the awareness of one soul of a corresponding resonance in another soul or some such nonsense. Still, some of the lines show that a bit of thought went into them. "He's so dumb he thinks Moby Dick is a venereal disease."
