Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates
Mike and Dave are young, adventurous, fun-loving brothers who tend to get out of control at family gatherings. When their sister Jeanie reveals her Hawaiian wedding plans, the rest of the Stangles insist that the brothers bring respectable dates. After placing an ad on Craigslist, the siblings decide to pick Tatiana and Alice, two charming and seemingly normal women. Once they arrive on the island, however, Mike and Dave realize that their companions are ready to get wild and party.
Critics Sentiment
Tatiana throws herself in front of a car to get the brothers' attention
Mike and Dave's fight broadcasts over speakers ruining the rehearsal dinner
The film drops nearly 3 points from the opening Hawaii charm to the disastrous rehearsal dinner meltdown that reviewers called mean-spirited and unpleasant.
Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates starts with promise as reviewers praised the cast chemistry and some genuinely funny early moments, particularly Aubrey Plaza's committed performance. However, the film steadily declines through increasingly crude and mean-spirited chaos, hitting rock bottom during the rehearsal dinner disaster before recovering slightly for a conventionally satisfying but unearned ending. Critics found it decent mindless entertainment elevated by its cast but hampered by tasteless humor and lack of heart.
