BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Neil Welch Mike and Dave are brothers whose shenanigans always go too far and ruin family events. With their sister's wedding coming up in Hawaii, they are instructed to find dates in the belief that this will curb their antics. And the plan might even have worked had Tatiana and Alice not seen the ad and decided that a Hawaii vacation sounded nice...This modern comedy (and when I say "modern" I mean "non-stop profanity and a preoccupation with sexual matters") features Zac Efron and Adam Devine as the two brothers, and Aubrey Plaza and Anna Kendrick as the wedding dates, and some attractive Hawaiian locations. It is often also quite funny, and if you're happy with constant profanity and a tendency to revel in sexuality at the gutter end, you're probably going to like this a lot.I enjoyed it, and there were times when it made me laugh quite a bit. And I liked both Efron and Aubrey Plaza: Plaza has mastered an on-screen persona which is attractive without being stunning, and both raunchy and funny at the same time, and she uses that quality well in this. I have reservations with both Anna Kendrick and Adam Devine, though.Kendrick is very talented. She is also a pretty girl with a nice body, and this film demanded that she show some of it. She didn't. She played the Hollywood game of talking a lot about sex but coyly showing a flash of ankle (OK, there is some minor nudity in this movie, including Plaza's *ss, but not much). Miss Kendick wears Big Knickers and I felt cheated.Adam Devine's character, big brother Mike, is a dick. He's meant to be, but it makes him the most annoying character in the film. Unfortunately, Devine is allowed - nay, encouraged - to overplay him, which turned the character (and Devine) into individuals I never wanted to see again. Ever. And this was a shame because I mostly enjoyed the movie.

ComedyFan2010 Looking through reviews I can see that I might be an exception, but I loved the movie. The story is about two brothers who need to find dates for their little sister's Hawaii wedding and make an ad. The two wild girls pretend to be good girls so they are chosen.And it is hilarious all the way through. I was really laughing out loud through most of it. It is not some super clever comedy but it makes one laugh and this is what I need from this kind of movie. We live in a bit of depressing times so it is nice to see this kind of comedy just to relax and laugh.The characters are all great. Fun people, made me remember the good times of living with my best friend and doing crazy things. And of course the fact that the actors are all talented comedians makes it even better.

bdo-lara I thought that the "Chris Farley" kind of comedy was gone, but apparently there are still some scriptwriters that want to resurrect it. Efron and Plaza are very talented, but their very talents were not put into good use in this movie. If anything, Efron is the only relatable character, while his brother (Devine) is ideal to play 1997's Beverly Hills Ninja (in Farley's part). Lame script, totally predictable. The scriptwriters need to get back to 1996 to write Black Sheep by Farley.

lojitsu Here's a Better Late than Never review of "Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates" (R - 2016 - US)...You look like burn unit Barbie!!Genre: Comedy/PhysicalMy Score: 6.4Cast=8 Acting=5 Plot=5 Ending=6 Story=4 Funny=7 Chem=8 Script=4 Physical=7 Ad-lib=10Two immature brothers place an ad on Craigslist to find the perfect dates for their sister's Hawaiian wedding. Cue in two unemployed girls who pretend to be exactly what the boys are looking for."He looks like a funhouse mirror version of a better looking guy". I'm pretty sure someone said that about me. This was a funny and stupid combination of "Wedding Crashers" and "Neighbors". I liked the chemistry with the leads, but what stood out for me was the ad-libs. The Blu-ray is magic with all the gag reel/line-o-rama stuff...that was hilarious!! This is worth a watch if you can drop some brain cells before you put it in your player.
