The best bits are in the trailer

Rating: 5/10 (28 June 2006)

You know how they sometimes say a trailer doesn't do a film justice? Well, for Wedding Crashers, the opposite applies. The truly funniest parts are to be found in the teasersnot the movie.
Looking at the trailer, attempts were clearly made to advertise this as a raunchy sex-comedy. I am sad to say that it is not one, which is really quite a shame, since had it been, Wedding Crashers would have had at least something memorable to fall back on. Now it simply ends up being bland. The jokes are mostly unoriginal and unable to be saved by funnyman Vince Vaughn.
Now, the movie is not bad exactly, but it is beyond me how it managed to get so many MTV Movie Awards and gross so much money at the box office. Why do people like this so much? Why is Christopher Walken in such a mediocre and unfunny comedy? When will Rachel McAdams stop playing miss goody-two-shoes in the most predictable way? I have so many questions.
