Right for all the wrong reasons

Rating: 6/10 (17 July 2005)

I've been using this site for a while now and have never posted my own reviews. Well here I am ;) First off, these two actors are my favorites out of what I call the "Clown Crew", including the likes of Ben Stiller and Will Ferrell. These guys are always funny, and I can never get tired of Vince Vaughn's style.
Don't get me wrong, the movie was funny, but not nearly the funniest out of these two guys. I still don't see how any of these clowns will ever make anything better than Old School. However, the actual story in the movie was fun. An emotional comedy, with an actual plot and an effort to make the story as realistic as possible, obviously in the realm of a comedy. Great performances by Vaughn and McAdams. It's so hard not to like her after this movie, I'm hoping I'll meet her one day.
The best idea the director had was making this movie 2 hours long, as to actually be able to insert a development towards the climax, as opposed to making a run of the mill slapstick comedy. All in all a really good movie, definitely worth watching. ****
