C A couple of mid-thirties divorce lawyers amuse themselves by crashing weddings to eat, drink, and find sex. Why this is later revealed as a "disgrace" is unclear. OW falls in love with RM, who is the rich daughter of a government cabinet minister (CW). VV attaches to her nymphomaniac sister. The story line roughly follows The Graduate (with JS doing the Mrs. Robinson thing), with a happy ending. The plot is clichéd and silly, but the jokes are just funny enough to sustain the 2 hr (!) run time. The humor is mostly adolescent farce, which quickly becomes tiring. Irony about weddings and the whole institution of marriage is a worthwhile theme but not well-examined here. CW is disappointingly not funny. Will Ferrill should have been edited out. He contributes nothing but must be too hot a star to overlook. Reviewed 2/2/06.
