Sacul goes crashing with Vince and Owen

Rating: 8/10 (8 July 2005)

Two guys crashing weddings for the free booze, the free food, and easy women. A premise that'll make most men over the age of 35 wonder: "Why the hell didn't I think of that?" With a plot as thin as this it would be easy for this movie to fail and fall as flat as your drunken uncle Devin at the last family reunion. It doesn't. Despite the fact that this movie takes the typical roads and the characters learn life lessons and fall in love this movie has a ton of laughs.
Watching these guys lie, cheat, and woo, it's easy to see just how much fun everyone had making this movie. Owen and Vince bounce improvised moments each other in a comedic symbiosis few can match. You can make a solid bet you'll see an unrated DVD later packed with hours of these two just firing off lines. Chris Walken feels a little under used in this movie, but it's hard to pay attention when his nymphomaniac daughter played by Isla Fischer is stealing nearly every scene she's in. Jane Seymour basically channels Mrs. Robinson for the few brief moments she registers in this movie but the scenes are funny and quick and seemed to have been part of some deleted sub plot that got dropped. Rachel McAdams part is pretty standard, she's the love interest but her character has the least going on. It's not that she's bad she just wasn't given much to do that would make her stand out in this family tree of nuts.
This is the wingman/buddy picture this summer was sorely missing. You'd have to be pretty uptight not to get some chuckles out of this one.
Sacul OUT!
