A rather generic entry into the arrested development subgenre, with themes borrowed from other more successful and funnier films. Dupree wears out its welcome.

A bit dull, since Dillon's constrained playing the straight guy, Hudson has little to work with, and Douglas looks bored.
Top CriticYou, Me and Dupree overstays its welcome but a compilation reel of Wilson's scenes would make for fairly funny viewing.
Owen Wilson is perilously close to doing a Dupree on his own career, by wearing out his welcome.
You, Me and Dupree seems to have been made by people who don't know the difference between a light comedy and an inconsequential one.
Amiable if ragtag.
This is the worst movie Wilson has made since he graduated from being Jackie Chan's punch line.
You, Me and Dupree is an inconsistent trifle - by turns cute and annoying - and not much more.
Not a single laugh here
The film is a mishmash of half-baked jokes, sitcom scenarios and Owen Wilson attempting to float by on his charm.
This is one of the worst scripts in the history of major-studio motion pictures: inconsistent, undeveloped, predictable, poorly thought-out -- hopeless on every level.
Dumb, obnoxious comedy about immature men.
While Mr. Wilson is a likeable guy in small (re: supporting) doses, a whole movie's worth of his shtick can become tiresome.
...Seth Rogen, so funny in "The 40-Year Old Virgin," gets laughs as a husband who doesn't realize he's henpecked.
If you're seeing the movie for the first time on DVD, you likely be glad you didn't pay to see You Me & Dupree in theaters. But for a relaxing and light time in front of the tube, it's just right.
The film's DVD cover begs one important question: Is this Lesley Nagy person the new Earl Dittman?
Owen Wilson just does what he does, and allows you to take it or leave it. You, Me and Dupree, then, suffers a slow start and trades too frequently in broad, garish strokes before rallying with some late atypical turns.
Wilson goes from crashing weddings to crashing newlyweds in a comedy that's as tired as week-old wedding cake.
An oddly likeable film that grows on you if you're willing to stick with it.
Between us, let's just forget the movie.
