Best Of Family And Friends (+DVD) - Family

Advantages: outstanding hilarious entertainment
Disadvantages: they haven't made a second one yet

...I watched this film and cried with laughter. starring vince vaughn and owen wilson as best friends co workers and of course wediing crashers made this film non stop quality entertainment I felt it has a strong story line throught out the film from the beginning of the film you have a sense of pity for owen wilsons character who seems to be out of luck all the way through the film . we have had several foriegn students staying with us over the summer and when they asked to borrow a dvd we reccommended this one and so far no one has neither not enjoyed it or founf at least most of it funny. I would definitly rate this film as a family fav and a film that can be watched over and over again... Read review

Home (reprise) And on the whole they are a collection of first rate songs. Home on a par with any track off of their "Picture Book" album. Fake, Lost Weekend and Something for you are probably the 3 weakest tracks, but they are still pleasant. However the 3 real stars of the album are "Sunrise" which heavily samples the Hall and Oates song "I cna't go for that (no can do)" and it is a work of genius. "You make me feel brand new" which is a cover version of the old Stylistics song and finally the best song of the entire album is "Positively 4th Street" a cover of Bob Dylan's swipe at all his ex-folk friends. Stunning. The bonus DVD features footage of a couple of live... Read review
