What a mess !

Rating: 2/10 (2 October 2005)

Yes, it's a crash ! A total crash of script, acting, and gags ! First of all, Vaughn, Ferrell and Walken are totally unfit for their role. The story is boring (expecially in the end), banal and unrealistic even for a comedy.
How could their enter a wedding party and pretend to be 2 relatives without any further question ? Bah !
The Wilson's declaration of love, in the end, is long, stereotyped and horribly boring, it never ends. It needed a speed end, like in the beginning (on the song Shout, the only good part in the film) and not "I love you, I love you too, bla bla bla....)
It's not a summer comedy either, where's the sun ? Where's the fun ? They bend balloons, they play football in a wealthy house, they dance in beautiful houses, but where's the fun for the spectator ? THEY have fun. And we ?
It's a total waste of time (it's 2 hours long !!) and waste of money.
My vote is 2, not 1 because David Dobkin, almost, directed quite good this mess.
