Movie Review - Wedding Crashers

Wedding Crashers (2005)
directed by David Dobkin
rating: 3 out of 5 jalapeƱos
on DVD from Blockbuster

Romantic, cynical, and yes, pretty funny, but can't someone give Bradley Cooper a break from playing Bradley Cooper? He's a bad foil, and worse than that, obvious in a movie that avoids the usual ungainly show stoppers (like the hero's renunciation of his old philandering ways). Owen and Vince move on, or grow up, but they still give Will Ferrell/Antoine Doinel his due.
