My roomie bought a DVD combo pack including The Hangover and Wedding Crashers. You may have seen my recent post enthusing about The Hangover, so I thought I owed Wedding Crashers, which I'd never seen, a shot as well. After all, they were packaged together, right? Perhaps the style of humor in the second movie would appeal to me as much as the first one.

Nope.

Maybe it's just my allergies to both Vince Vaughn and weddings, but I couldn't watch more than half an hour of Wedding Crashers. There is literally nothing I enjoyed about that formulaic pile of rom-com garbage. You know, just because a movie has some nice tits and some raunchy jokes in it, that doesn't make it "special" or more than a paint-by-numbers exercise in predictable, crowd-pleasing swill.

Blech.

Somebody please explain the appeal of this movie, and while your at it, define Vince Vaughn's queasy, Sasquatchian "charm".
