Bridegoons
By Jeffrey M. Anderson The smoothly anarchic first ten minutes of Wedding Crashers sets the tone for a cheerfully sleazy tale of two friends (Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn) committed to attending weddings and taking advantage of emotionally vulnerable bridesmaids. Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls) plays the cute, unattainable love interest, even if she's not much different from the boys' other quickie conquests. Directed by David Dobkin (Shanghai Knights), the thin material constantly threatens to collapse into romantic comedy third-act ennui, but Vaughn and Wilson keep kicking and dragging more life out of it. Every time a scene begins to feel ordinary, one of them does something surprisingly hilarious. No one today can earnestly con a person's pants off quite like Wilson, with his cowboy charm and rattlesnake smile.
