Slappin the base!

Rating: 9/10 (26 April 2010)

I am a fan of Paul Rudd, I like role models, 40 year on virgin and others but when I heard of this I thought it was going to be like a weird Rom-com/chick flick - you know the ones that trick you like adventure-land but I was pleasantly surprised.
The story is basic, a guy is due to get married to his wife, she realises he has no friends, he see's this and decides to get a friend as a best man for his wedding so he doesn't look like such a loser - many funny events happen on this search and he finds one. A guy that is almost the opposite of him and they learn a lot about each other.. blah blah he's the best man at the wedding. OK I could have made the story sound better but stripped down that's ultimately it. Not an amazing story but that doesn't matter - why? because the cast are all equally brilliant, the directing/editing and general theme is great and ultimately it's one of my comedy favourites I definitely recommend it.
The only reason it doesn't get a 10/10 is because it's quite predictable.
