namashi_1 'You, Me and Dupree' is Good Fun. The humor here does get tedious, but overall, the result is undeniably entertaining. 'You, Me and Dupree' Synopsis: A best man stays on as a house-guest with the newlyweds, much to the couple's annoyance. 'You, Me and Dupree' is a decent entertainer. It has some truly funny sequences, along-with some truly impressive performances from it's talented cast. Michael LeSieur's Screenplay is funny, but it does get tedious at times. Anthony Russo & Joe Russo's Direction, is mild. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design, are passable.Performance-Wise: Owen Wilson is awesome as Dupree. The effortless actor steals the show! Kate Hudson is perfect. Matt Dillon suits the part & he is suitably restrained. Michael Douglas does his bit well. Seth Rogen supports well. Others lend support. On the whole, 'You, Me and Dupree' is worth a watch.

Matt Fitzgerald First of all, this film will be hated by many. There isn't much of a story and all of the actors are really only bit players to Owen Wilson. Of course, it's a crying shame to have to accept this with the likes of Michael Douglas and Seth Rogen appearing; however, for some reason I like this film. I've watched it numerous times now, and it keeps making me laugh; hence, the reason for this review. It's score on here would probably turn many people away, but as I said I keep coming back to it, and I'm going to try to explain why. As I've already stated, this is Owen Wilson's film, he's the star, he plays Dupree, best-friend to Matt Dillon's character (Carl). The plot of the film is quite thin, it begins with the marriage of Dillon and Kate Hudson (Molly), and upon returning home as newlyweds Carl discovers that Dupree currently has no home and no job. Carl persuades Molly to let Dupree stay with them until he gets on his feet. We then witness all sorts of mischievous behaviour and bizarre accidents involving Dupree, while Carl slogs away working for Molly's father (Douglas). The climax of the film is when Carl becomes convinced that Dupree is in love with Molly, and Carl loses it altogether. Of course, the film has a happy ending, Dupree sorts out Carl and Molly, while he becomes a motivational speaker after becoming obsessed with cycling and Lance Armstrong. OK, so the plot isn't great. I move on to the performances - Wilson is perfect as Dupree, he is the typical 'love to hate' character, constantly screwing up but someone the audience keep rooting for. Wilson has insurmountable amounts of energy as Dupree, he seems to thrive off the character. Perhaps Wilson actually IS like this in real life? I don't know him so can't possible comment; however, his performance makes this film. The other cast members? Well Kate Hudson spends a lot of the film in her underwear, Dillon's paranoia of Dupree and Molly makes him the bad guy towards the end, and Seth Rogan (playing Carl and Dupree's friend Neil) should cringe at his performance. Sure his character is annoying, but still Seth. Oh it really is cringe worthy. Douglas is great when he's in it, but it isn't a character that he could have really done much with anyway to be fair. So why do I like it? I admit, so far I haven't really 'sold' the film. I think this is the type of film that is 'easy viewing', it doesn't require you to think, it just passes an hour and half in an entertaining manner. Wilson's performance as Dupree is fantastic, and it really does make the film. There aren't really any bad performances, it is more a case of characters being poorly written. If you're a fan of Wilson then you will like this film, if you aren't then I'd still recommend it. Watch it when you have a few spare hours and it will keep you entertained. It's not a deep or classic film by any stretch, but it's easy to watch and sometimes that is all you want.

Jackson Booth-Millard From brother directors Joe and Anthony Russo (Welcome to Collinwood), I recognised this comedy film mainly because of the star playing the title character, so I had to give it a go. Basically Molly (Kate Hudson) and Carl (Matt Dillon) have recently got married, and they plan to settle very quickly in a new house with good careers. Carl however has his best friend (and best man) Randy Dupree (Owen Wilson) telling him he has just lost his job because of attending the wedding, and he is homeless. Carl decides to let Dupree stay with him until he can get back on his feet, which doesn't please Molly, and within a few days he is causing nothing but trouble. Dupree is also outstaying his welcome by being lazy and not looking often enough for a job, and dating a mysterious librarian girl. While Molly has to put up with her husband's best friend, well, she does get used to it, Carl is trying to get used to his overpowering father-in-law Mr. Thompson (Michael Douglas) who wants Molly to keep her maiden name and for herself and possible children, don't worry, everything is settled in the end. Also starring Seth Rogen as Neil, Amanda Detmer as Annie, Ralph Ting as Toshi, Knocked Up's Bill Hader as Mark and Lance Armstrong. Wilson manages to captivate with appearances in films like Zoolander and Meet the Parents, and while he doesn't fail to make laughs, it's not enough to carry the film fully, same with Hudson and Dillon, but it's not bad. Okay!
