Hedonistic brothers Mike (Adam Devine) and Dave (Zac Efron) have a reputation at family events. They don’t just get the party started, they tend to end it too. Sometimes in A&E. So the family decide that they have to bring dates to their sister’s wedding – nice girls who will keep them in check. Unfortunately, Alice (Anna Kendrick) and Tatiana (Aubrey Plaza) are not the sobering influence that the family were hoping for. In fact, they are the female equivalent of Mike and Dave. And that says a lot about the lazy approach to female comedy by predictable films such as this: showing girls being just as crass and idiotic as their male counterparts is not quite the equality we should be aiming for.
