5/10
Very Lacking
14 July 2006
I expected You Me and Dupree to be one of those films where all the funny scenes were spoiled in the previews, but surprisingly there were a few more left for the movie... not many though. I didn't have any upheaving laughs, no, not that kind of movie. To judge this movie after I had already planned for it to be a huge failure of a production means that I can not criticize it too much. Exceeding expectations is part of the film making world too.

A problem I noticed was how there were lacking actors. Matt Dillon, Kate Hudson, and Owen Wilson were in the film entirely, and only about two more were in it for over 5 scenes. Amanda Detmer's name appeared in the opening and ending credits and I didn't even see her! I'm not sure if it's all about deleted scenes, but she is a good actress and I was disappointed to not see her in this movie. On the bright side, Kate Hudson filled in the hotness that Amanda would have brought.

The plot wasn't too good. I didn't like the flow of the movie or the situations that occurred. It seemed somewhat entertaining, yet was made wrongly. I didn't expect much though.

Overall, it was average. You will see this on TV and watch it in a few years. 5 out of 10. Save your money. I did, free passes for employees!!
