Wedding Crashers Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams The Official Site DVD at Amazon.com

Released: 5/1/2005

Wilson and Vaughn play a pair of hustlers whose summers revolve around crashing weddings and picking up women at them, using a series of rules, ploys and role-playing. This in itself would not make for a solid film but this premise just serves as a backdrop for what becomes a believable and often hilarious love story. Wilson and Vaughn make a great comedy team but also manage to pull off the more heartfelt scenes in the movie with genuine chemistry. And the uncredited appearance of Will Ferrell as the sleazy mentor (who has now moved on to crashing funerals) is a welcome surprise.

Overall solidly acted and definitely worth checking out in the theater or on DVD when available.
