Wedding Crashers

Rating: 1/10 (12 October 2005)

Wedding Crashers is, without any doubt , the kind of movie everybody would have claim against years ago.But is also the kind of movie people loves to watch nowadays. If we should compare it with titles such as Danny Leiner's "Dude,where is my car?" or any of the Mike Mitchell's Gigolo's series , Wedding Crashers is not that bad. At least, we couldn't expect any further from Owen Wilson, who seems incapable of thinking about cinema industry as an art (nor even as a noble and decent way of earning money). Director David Dobkin, presents us two of the most disgusting characters ever seen on the big (or even small)screen. This movie's most likely intention responds to Dobkin's wish to make some more money thanks to a bunch of single thirty-something middle-class living with- their -mums -or -not men and brainless teenagers who liked his "Shanghai Knights"and who see in Owen's characters their own alter-ego. But the worst part about Wedding Crashers is to see how Vince Vaugh is capable of making us forget his remarkable performance in Tarsem Sigh's "The Cell" by reminding us his "work" in Todd Phillips' "Starsky and Hutch", again with Owen around. Dobkin's next work will be "Jack", a story about a farm boy who leaves the roost to become a soldier. Let's hope Owen won't be that farm boyor should I say fear?.
