Afternoon Baseball

The comedy troupe of the Wilsons, Stiller, Vaughn and Ferrell continue with great comedy, although only Owen, Vince and Will are in this one.

The best part of this film? Its attitude, emphasized in the R-rating, bawdy humor, language and barrage of T & A (although thankfully, not Jane Seymour. Sorry, she's a hot old, but old) that's throughout the film. The chicks are hot, but normal hot, and can actually act and joke a little.

Christopher Walken doesn't have much to work with, but that's why he's so good. The guy who plays Rachel McAdams' finance (she's the girl Owen Wilson falls for) is a bit over-the-top, in perhaps the only casting mistake, as clearly Seann William Scott should have played this douchebag guy as he has in many films before.

Even when the movie gets a bit sentimental, formulaic and cliched in the latter stretches, Will Ferrell pops up to rejuvenate it. Nothing like crashing a funeral.
This movie, quite frankly, could have sucked if it was PG-13, and been used as an example to show how this group was running out of ideas after Zoolander, Meet The Parents/Fockers, The Royal Tenenbaums, Old School, Starsky & Hutch, Anchorman, and Dodgeball. Well, after all those movies, I'd say they were entitled to a slip-up. But bumping this film to an R rating gives it the edge it needs.
