Go see this movie

Usually, when I walk into a comedy I expect to laugh. I expected to laugh with this movie...but not like I did. This movie was the one comedy that everyone will be talking about. I think it is going to be the Animal House of the new age. It will make you laugh and cry laughing. The plot was ingenious and very smart. It is sort of like Old School by with a different twist. I felt that the story was a story that everyone will like. This is a movie that just kicks off and doesn't stop until it's over. The acting was great. The new team is Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. They both starred in "Starskey and Hutch", both never had any screen time together. With "Wedding Crashers", they have screen time throughout the whole thing and, they really make a great team up. They are the next Chris Farley and David Spade. They really know how to make the people laugh, which is something not very common, at least now a days. Overall, I loved this movie and so should everyone else.
