Some may know that I am a big fan of Zac Efron and his comedy line of
movies and 'Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates' falls right along that
line. This film had plenty of hilarious moments throughout and had me
genuinely entertained with the amount of over-the-top humor it
presented. On top of the moments, Anna Kendrick, Zac Efron, Adam
Devine, and Aubrey Plaza did a great job every moment they were on
screen, bringing the laughs every chance they could. I have been
waiting to see Anna Kendrick let loose on screen for a while and with
this film and also 'Get A Job', it was awesome to finally see that.
Adam Devine is naturally ridiculous with every on-screen shot and never
fails to get a laugh out of a crowd and even his co-stars (See gag reel
at the end of the film). Although hilarious, an avid movie lover will
notice the pointless and utterly ridiculous plot and sometimes way
over-the-top antics. Regardless, this is just another raunchy comedy
fit for mindless entertainment. I am a fan and if you like movies like
'Neighbors' or 'Dirty Grandpa', it will be one you will be a fan of
too.
