Wedding Crashers might not be one of the greatest movies of all time, but it certainly is one of the all time funniest movies. Movies of comedy are judged by different standards than other categories of movies. However, as always, a great movie has to start with a great cast
The Cast:
Arguably the three funniest actors of our generation headline this all-star cast: Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Christopher Walken. All three actors are hilarious, yet all have different styles of humor which are complementary throughout the movie. This movie also features Rachel McAdams and Isla Fisher who play as mother and daugter in this film. Because of the success of this movie, it sky-rocketed the career of Bradley Cooper who went on to star in another hilarious movie: The Hangover.
The Plot:
Again what makes the plot so intriguing is the fact that this film is so unique and no other movie has come close to this concept. It is something that people talk about, actually experience during their weddings, yet there has not been a movie on the matter until now. Owen and Vince are co-workers together at a company and for fun, they crash weddings. Free food, single woman and free drinks are what these two partners go after. These two go by a strict set of rules that allows them to keep crashing weddings and never get caught.
Comedy:
The comedy expectations for a movie cast and plot like this were extremely high, and this movie delivered. There are two main factors as to how the comedy was so good in this movie. First, the styles of humor that each character expressed complemented one another throughout the plot of the story. Second, the plot was not all about crashing weddings. There is only so much comedy that can be provided if the movie was just about crashing weddings. Instead, most of the comedy came as a result of crashing weddings, for example, at the mansion of Christopher Walken.
