You, Me, and Dupree (2006)

Starring: Kate Hudson, Owen Wilson, Matt Dillon, and Michael Douglas.

Comments: There’s a reason we didn’t get around to watching it until just now, and that’s because there always seemed to be better movies to watch. Now if I had just maintained that same vigilance, we would have been fine. This is something of a blend between Wedding Crashers and One Night at McCools, only, sadly, less entertaining than either of those. The lessons about honesty, friendship, marriage, and loyalty are good, but they come buried in so much slop of content and plot that it’s not enough to make the movie worth watching. I’d rate it PG-15, mostly for deviant sex stuff.
