Review of Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates (2016) by Jp L — 21 Sep 2016

I did not enjoy Mike & Dave Need Dates... too long of a movie title, the jokes were "kinda" funny, but the premise of the movie was that these two guys were bachelors and ruined events. The ways in which they ruined events all seemed like accidents... which is different than their mindset being about women ruining the event. They were just clumsy bachelors. The girls seemed to have had worse intentions than the guys in the movie, for no reason other than to go to Hawaii... why sabotage her wedding? The bride getting hit with an ATV is an accident and her decision to be involved with something extremely dangerous before her wedding... FYI that ATV should have put her in a coma. The Indian massage scene was a cheesy plot element to get the groom upset at her... doubt that's a real thing people accept to do and the ecstasy scene was another cheap plot element to cause obvious drama... I see hardly any fault in the two guys that were supposed to be the protagonist in the movie. I did enjoy how their "we need dates" post went viral, but after that it went nowhere as if that plot element didn't need to exists in the first place. Anybody who saw that post undoubtably will have skewed intentions for a free trip to Hawaii, also it's Zac Efron...

Last statement: The goofy guy was the funniest, but he was so 2 dimensionally funny that you never saw a real side to him.

Favorite line of the movie: "He looks like a fun house mirror version of a hot guy.".
