In the outrageous comedy, Wedding Crashers, divorce mediators John Beckwith (Owen Wilson) and Jeremy Grey (Vince Vaughn) are business partners and life-long friends who share one truly unique springtime hobby…crashing weddings! Whatever the ethnicity of the wedding party - Jewish, Italian, Irish, Chinese, Hindu - the charismatic and charming duo always have clever back stories for inquisitive guests and inevitably become the hit of every reception, where they strictly adhere to their proven "rules of wedding crashing" to meet and pick up women aroused by the very thought of marriage. At the tail end of another successful season of toasting brides and grooms, Jeremy learns that the daughter of Treasury Secretary William Cleary (Christopher Walken) and his wife Kathleen (Jane Seymour) is getting married in what is sure to be the Washington, D. C. social event of the year. After infiltrating the lavish affair, John and Jeremy quickly set their sights on bridesmaids Claire (Rachel McAdams) and Gloria (Isla Fisher) Cleary. With the lavish reception in full swing, Jeremy works his game plan to perfection in seducing Gloria, but John's flirtatious banter with Claire is unexpectedly impeded by her pompous, Ivy League boyfriend Sack (Bradley Cooper). Having uncharacteristically fallen hard and fast for Claire, John convinces a resistant Jeremy to bend the crashing rules and accept an invitation to an extended weekend party at the Cleary family compound. Once at the palatial waterfront estate, John and Jeremy endure a multitude of comical mishaps at the hands of the hysterically dysfunctional members of the Cleary family, but also learn a few unexpected lessons about love and relationships. Wedding Crashers is a New Line Cinema presentation of a Tapestry Films production directed by David Dobkin (Shanghai Knights). The original screenplay was written by Steve Faber & Bob Fisher. The producers are Tapestry Films partners Peter Abrams, Robert L. Levy and Andrew Panay. The executive producers are Guy Riedel, Toby Emmerich, Richard Brener and Cale Boyter. The creative team includes director of photography Julio Macat, ASC, production designer Barry Robison, costume designer Denise Wingate, composer Rolfe Kent, and editor Mark Livolsi. In addition to Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn, the talented cast also includes Christopher Walken, Rachel McAdams, Isla Fisher, Jane Seymour, Ellen Albertini Dow, Bradley Cooper and Ron Canada. New Line Cinema will release Wedding Crashers nationwide on July 15th, 2005. -- © New Line Cinema [More]

    Two thirds of the movie is a winning wedding of romance and comedy, but the last one third crashes

    Likeable Owen Wilson sails blithely through a potentially brilliant comedy that crashes soon after comedic liftoff.

    ...a bawdy, gaudy comedy that shouldn't work but does. It's funny, it's naughty, and it's got heart.

    This crude and unabashedly cynical flick is the most uproarious Hollywood comedy since "Meet the Parents."

    Dobkin has made a raunchy comedy that delivers enough laughs to merit its randy ambitions. But now that it works, it’s a shame that he didn’t aim just a little bit higher.

    Raunchy humor is easy to do but hard to do well; this film creates characters we believe in and care about, then adds the raunchiness on top. It gets the formula just right.

    Quite like a couple deciding to get married, Wedding Crashers is a real waste of potential.

    Hysterical. It is the triumphant return of the R rating comedy (and Ben Stiller is not in it).

    Drags the setup scenario out for too long and loses its comical edge in the process.

    Despite its considerable comic potential, 'Wedding Crashers' features too many silly scenes that made it hard for me to suspend disbelief.

    A Maxim-friendly riot that embraces the fact that discussions about sex usually involve terms more risqué than "making love."

    The scene at a crowded dinner table is bound to become the most widely referenced sex gag since Cameron Diaz discovered a new kind of hair gel in There’s Something About Mary.

    Do you take these guys to be your wedding crashers - I do. They know how to get the party started. The movie is silly and raunchy and exactly what you would hope for.

    The smoothly anarchic first ten minutes of Wedding Crashers sets the tone for a cheerfully sleazy tale.

    Wedding Crashers may be the most optimistic Hollywood comedy of the year, because it restores at least some dim hope that directors, writers and actors with actual brains in their heads can somehow triumph over unimaginative studio execs.

    Wedding Crashers is rude, crude, obnoxious, crass, and almost completely devoid of dignity and respect. In short, I loved it.
