What was all the fuss about?

Rating: 3/10 (13 August 2005)

I was very disappointed with this film. It was hyped WAY too much. Firstly, Vince Vaughn? we all know Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson make the best team and Ben Stiller is by far the funniest. Vince Vaughn looked awkward in this film and just didn't have much presence even if he is about 8ft tall!!!The first half hour of this film is very boring. We know it's a comedy but all the women falling for Vaughn and Wilson-who are they kidding? (They're not exactly Orlando Bloom!). Wilson then starts to fall for a girl who he meets at a wedding he crashed but as always she has a boyfriend who just so happens to be a thoughtless git who doesn't respect her. Well to cut the story short the film gets a bit cheesy. There are a few funny moments but not enough to make it a good film. It's a watchable film but I was expecting to be rolling around the floor in laughter when in fact it only just put a smile on my face on a few occasions. This film just doesn't work very well and Vaughn and Wilson don't show much comedic ability. It just wasn't funny enough!
