Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates

It plays better than it reviews — the watch lands harder than the write-ups suggest.

• “Comedy is getting more and more nasty and more and more funny. But it’s hard to imagine any movie more nasty-funny than Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates.”

  Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle · 100

• “Plaza has found her Ron Burgundy: the vessel of a true imbecile in which to pour her strange genius.”

  Jordan Hoffman, The Guardian · 80

• “As dumb as "Mike and Dave" can get, it's a surprisingly fun summer comedy and icing on the (wedding) cake for fans of the raunchiest of humor.”

  Edward Douglas, New York Daily News · 80

• “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates may not be the first Apatow-era comedy about twentysomethings coming to grips with the fact that they won’t live forever (and it’s certainly not the deepest, as it lingers in your memory for about as long as a Snapchat), but it might just be one of the funniest.”

  David Ehrlich, IndieWire · 75

• “As filthy as the back of a sanitation truck — but it has heart, too. Most of the comedy is funny, some of it is hilarious.”
