Surprisingly funny...

Rating: 8/10 (25 May 2006)

These days if Hollywood manages to make something remotely good its a surprise. I came into this on the recommendations of others expecting it to be bad even by Hollywood's standards. So to say I was surprised by this movie would be an understatement. I was honestly somewhat shocked by the fact than when it ended I had a good feeling, a feeling like I had just been entertained and that my hard earned dollar had been spent (reasonably) well. WEIRD.
The movie obviously is about wedding crashing so its somewhat lewd, but its more funny lewd than grotesque lewd. That I think was the saving grace of this film. Somehow it took questionable behavior and turned into to watchable fun. In the end we learn that even wedding crashers have feelings. And while I doubt that in real life people who act like this have such dynamic and likable personalities the point of the movie is still well taken. There's a special someone for everyone, even the freaks.
