One of my all time favourite comedies
Very decent transfer to Blu-ray so no worries there. A comedy that perhaps is an acquired taste but gets better each time for me.This edition comes with the original and new “uncorked” edition that includes interspersed deleted scenes edited into the movie seamlessly. Personally, I didn’t find the uncorked edition funnier; actually I felt it unnecessarily delayed the story and just goes to show how much good editing can affect a film. Students of film take note here.Cast are exceptional and chemistry between them is natural and unforced. Wilson and Vaughan are excellent together but Isla Fisher steals the show as ‘stage five clinger’ Gloria. The supporting cast all have individual moments where they shine and have memorable scenes e.g. Jane Seymour’s ‘kitty kat’ scene is hilarious; Christopher Walken’s scene where Jeremy (Vaughan) is tied to bed is another stand out scene of hilarity; and Will Ferrell’s Chaz, the crasher king, is one of his funniest characterisations.Be aware that there are some risqué scenes that leave nothing to the imagination. What I found remarkable about this movie however is that these scenes actually help the plot and develop the story and characters. Perhaps this is why I stated it’s a film that might be considered an acquired taste. Today, it’s one of my favourite comedies and I enjoy and look forward to my favourite scenes. Like a good wine, it’s gotten better with age...

Crying-with-laughter funny
This has become one of my all-time favourite comedies. I originally saw it at the cinema after the movie I originally wanted to see was sold out. But disappointment quickly turned to glee at this unexpectedly hilarious offering from members of the "Frat Pack". Many times in the cinema hall, I was literally crying with laughter and my belly ached. Similar reactions from the rest of the audience are enough to show that the few who commented negatively on this movie are in the minority.Vince Vaughan's funny man bounces well off Owen Wilson's charming straight man. The wedding crasher concept is itself original and gets the duo into new and interesting situations. Add to this, a number of wierd and funny characters with which they interact and you have a recipe for side-splitting laughter. The little bit of nudity in it is unnecessary and could have been left out. I don't know why movie-makers insist on including it as leaving it out could have appealed to a wider audience.I bought this movie on DVD and watch it from time from time when I need a good laugh. The comedy is silly, slap-stick, and juvenile but also very clever. Add to this the romantic stories in the background and you have a great feel-good movie which should be sold with a money-back guarantee.Don't miss it!

FUNNY!!!
VINCE VAUGHN, OWEN WILSON AND CHRISTOPHER WALKEN ARE JUST THE CREAM OF THE CROP IN THIS HILARIOUS COMEDY ABOUT TWO BATCHELOR FRIENDS WHO SPEND THEIR FREE TIME TRYING TO SCORE WOMEN BY CRASHING WEDDINGS.WHEN I FIRST HEARD ABOUT THE PLOT I WASN'T TOO IMPRESSED, BUT HAVING WATCHED AND NOW BOUGHT THE FILM, I CAN ONLY GIVE IT MY STRONGEST RECOMMENDATION.ITS HARD TO DESCRIBE. JUST WATCH THE DARN THING. YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

Hilarious
Not paerhaps a film for the older ones of us, but as a teenager I found this absolutely Hilarious, as did everyone i know who's watched it. The partnership between Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson is brilliant and could be another possibility for the future! Perhaps the uncorked version has too much nudity as in the sequence it has been added it only serve to slow the sequence down, so for this reason I would buy the theatrical version (which justifies it's 15certificate). Very original comedy but in places could be a little offensive, but for the majority this film will make you fall of your seats in laughter.
