    Peter Berg's scandalous sick-joke thriller is packed with rude and clever twists, and it delves, with surprising force, into the hypocritical postures of corporate-era male bonding. The cast is terrific, especially Christian Slater.

    Cameron Diaz is sublimely screwy as the single-minded bride determined not to let anything--including the deadly mishaps that keep shrinking the wedding party--spoil her nuptials. [30 November 1998, p. 111]

    In a world filled with crude movie sitcoms, Berg's bitter, worst-possible-case scenario really does stand alone.

    It never makes you laugh that hard. Not even close. And so the thing becomes a bloody assault on the senses that commingles atrocity with tedium.

    Man has stag do in Las Vegas, Bride not happy about his friends, sex & drugs & rock n roll, mishap in the bathroom, panic & mayhem.
    Very dark     comedy that has some genuine funny moments & a very good cast to back it up.
    It's loud, brash & doesn't take itself too seriously & that works in & out of it's favour.    … Expand

    Utterly sickening and unfunny.

    An utterly horrible film. The plot is all over the place, the violence is too over the top and none of the characters are even remotely likeable that you just don't care whether they die or not. Grim viewing. Not The Mist or Requiem for a Dream grim, because those two had a good film to support the grimness. Avoid!… Expand
