Clever and funny

Rating: 8/10 (13 April 2006)

For the first hour and a half were hilarious, and I couldn't stop laughing, however watch out for that last half hour or so. It gets pretty slow towards the end, and a little mushy for the type of genre that it is.
Owen Wilson and Vince Vaugn work surprisingly really well together, and although I've really grown to dislike Vaugn, I found him to be hilarious in this, and actually thought that he portrayed his character very well. Wilson as usual, was not only good looking, but hysterical and nailed every line to the 'T'. I was surprised to see Jane Seymore in a film like this, but then I was also surprised to see Christopher Walken except a part like this as well.
I love Rachel McAdams, and so of course I was delighted to see her in the movie. The chemistry was really good between all of the cast members, and the set design, direction and writing were all excellent. But, again, the only reason why I don't give this movie a full ten is simply because of the ending. I felt it dragged on way too much for the comedy that was given earlier on in the film, and it made parts that should have been funny, more sentimental and corny. Which, is really hard to do with Vince Vaugn in my opinion.
It's definitely the kind of movie you're gonna watch with your sweetie, but probably not one you'd dare watch as a first or second time date. There's some humor in it you might not want to chance with someone you don't know very well, but that's just my suggestion. I loved it, and will more than likely watch it again in the near future.
