Wedding Crashers
I saw Wedding Crashers yesterday as a tonic to alleviate the inadvertent side effects of navel-gazing I experienced after seeing 40 Year Old Virgin last weekend. I just needed some brain dead T&A eye candy from a couple of the Frat Pack boys.
Mission accomplished. Mostly.
I'm not navel-gazing, but I have been incessantly thinking about two things.
1) How could I not see Will Farrell coming? Seriously. Of course Chazz would make an appearance and of course Farrell would play him. Who else?
2) If I'm ever lucky enough to wake up and find myself tied to the bed by a beautiful redhead, the very last thing I would do is complain. Seriously. Very. Last. But I should be so lucky.
Incidentally, the lovely Isla Fisher is a natural redhead and, according to IMDB, engaged to a Jewish guy, which I guess means there's hope for me yet. I don't think she's Jewish, which means she's removed a hilariously funny, good-looking, Jewish guy with lots of money and a great job from the dating pool. Now: to find a beautiful, Jewish redhead who'd be interested in a moderately amusing, not completely ugly, Jewish guy with a couple bucks and a pays-for-shit-but-really-really-stable job who does not live with his mother. Any takers?
Oh, and the movie wasn't really as great as it's cracked up to be. I laughed plenty. Lots of eye candy. And it was well worth the $6.50 I paid for it (even the $10 for an evening show). But it was no Zoolander, Dodgeball, or Anchorman. Definitely worth seeing, with moments of genius, but don't expect a 10. More like a 7 or 8. If you're a guy into Rachel McAdams or redheads, an 8-1/2.
