Like Dupree himself, the film wears out its welcome a little, but is still entertaining...

The comedy is obvious and flat while the drama is stale. They did do one thing right, however: They attracted a stellar cast...

Matt Dillon was so good in Crash, wasn't he? And that Owen Wilson is such a funny guy. Wedding Crashers had to be one of the funniest films released last year. And that perky Kate Hudson is a cute actress, too. I loved her in Almost Famous.
Sadly, You, Me and Dupree will leave you searching for happy memories of those times you actually enjoyed watching this trio of talent. You have to search a wee way back for their fourth accomplice, Michael Douglas. Was it The Game? Falling Down? Romancing the Stone?
Whatever that happy memory is, it certainly isn't this movie...
