Watching the brashly hilarious "Wedding Crashers" is like getting a frilly, scented wedding invitation that comes with a copy of Hustler magazine. That's not only because it's about a pair of guys whose mission in life is to pick up (and lay down) single women at weddings. The movie is unapologetically raunchy, but in the end it has a heart after all. Read the full review

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: B+
"Fisher, in her first major role, steals every scene often besting Vaughn's hip staccato delivery with wild leaps of physical comedy and a character that manages to be both screwy and sexy."
Austin American-Statesman: 2 of 5 stars
"The final third of the film nosedives into 'boy loses girl and boy gets depressed' cliches. Again, there's a lot of screen time for Wilson and Vaughn, and they make poor use of it."
Middletown Journal: B+
"Vaughn and Owen's chemistry sizzles, with Vaughn playing the go-for-broke adventurous type, while Wilson balances the scales with his goofy but lovable charm. They volley rapid-fire banter with enough ease and confidence to impress Cary Grant."
The Palm Beach Post: B
"Wilson and Vaughn are an inspired comic team, with Vaughn earning most of the laughs with his motormouth monologues and physical pratfalls."
