Carl and Molly have found the one unfortunate hitch in their perfectly constructed newly wedded world: Dupree. A slacker with the soul of a poet, Dupree just can't seem to catch a break from The Man. When he takes a week off to go be the best-man at Carl and Molly's wedding in Hawaii, Dupree gets the unceremonious heave-ho from his boss. Now jobless, car-less and evicted from the cot at his favorite watering hole, he just needs to crash with the Petersons for a couple of days; okay, maybe a month or so. At first, Carl is psyched to have the couch guest while Molly bears the brunt of Dupree's well-meaning antics. But, as Carl becomes buried in his grown-up job of land development and headaches, he finds it hard to juggle Dupree and his newlywed responsibilities. As time passes, his and Molly's houseguest uses his ample spare time to become a great companion to her, underscoring Carl's new workaholic tendencies. Even Molly's dad begins to fall for Dupree's carefree wisdom, frustrating Carl to no end. Soon, everyone--but Carl--begins to root for Dupree to stick around. But just as the impish buddy starts becoming a fixture in the Petersons' home, three becomes not just a crowd, but a full-blown comic catastrophe. As the couple realizes their ideas of a white-picket fence marriage are morphing, their loveable pal serves as a daily reminder that finding your inner Dupree might just be one of life's hidden secrets

I thought this movie was hilarious. Yes, it's over the top, yes, Owen Wilson pours it on thick, but that's expected. Owen Wilson as the smarmy loser works perfectly against Matt Dillon as the responsible husband.
If you're a fan of 'There's Something About Mary', 'Meet the Parents', 'Dodgeball' or 'Wedding Crashers', you'll like this movie. It's that Owen Wilson/Vince Vaughn/Ben Stiller kind of humour...so if you're in the mood for silly fun, you'll enjoy it.
this film was very very funny but one needs a certain sense of fun for to like this film. Not for everyone.
Who will be Hollywood's next generation of male movie stars? This time last year we ran through the Top 20 actresses under 25. Perhaps surprisingly, many of them were significantly more established than their male counterparts: actresses like Keira Knightley, Kirsten Dunst and Scarlett Johansson have been top-lining a wide variety of big movies for some time now. Is that because the industry skews towards younger women, while younger men face tougher competition from above? Or maybe the fellas Read more
