Funny as Hell
I laughed...a lot
Vacation!
I'm a sucker for vacation movie plots, add to the escapism I guess
Rotten Tomatos 39% Cinemascore: B
Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates was the adult comedy to debut this weekend alongside The Secret Life of Pets and it does exactly what its suppose to (provided your into this sort of comedy). This movie is a cluster of sex jokes, some of them really funny and some barely worth a chuckle, still if your firing 100 shells a minute a couple are going to be bullseyes. The writing in this movie is actually sharper then it lets on at first and provides several great sandboxes for its characters to let loose in. Mike and Dave has plenty of moments that struck me just right but its greatest weakness is its four main leads (Efron, Kendrick, DeVine and Plaza). Many of the movies scenarios call for over the top reactions but these guys just have no off switch. DeVine in particular started to feel less human as the movie went on because his delivery was just so overpowering. That being said the point of the movie is that the main four characters are a little out of touch so it didn't crash and burn the plot like it may in other movies. This movie wont be for everyone, but considering how much I laugh I have to say I would recomend it and watch it again in the future.
