I was lucky, or should i say unlucky enough to attend the premiere of this film. And after about 10 minutes it was clear to me that what was in front of me was nothing better than a high school film project. Every aspect of this film was appalling. The screenplay was horrific, containing the most crude and unfunny jokes imaginable. The acting was as bad; poor Danny Dyer did the best he could considering what he had to work with but the two wives, Sarah Harding and Denise Van Outen took acting to a new low. Ray Cooney's directional ineptitude was also clearly apparent however good a stage writer he may claim to be.

The 90 minutes I had to spend watching this was truly the most tiresome experience I have ever had in a cinema. The hocus pocus plot I'm sure drove most of the audience round the bend and I felt a great deal better when the credits started to role. Everyone who had anything to do with this film must be regretting being a part of this project. It seems that the only point of this film was to give has beens of British film and television a few seconds of screen time.

It is no surprise Run for your Wife took a grand total of £602 in its first week and is being heralded as the worst film of the year.

I've heard many people slate this film for being too similar to "The Hangover". OK, many things were the same (i.e. being set just before a wedding and events turning out badly) but for me this didn't retract from the film. It was still as good as the original, possibly even better in my opinion.

As a 16 year old teenager this ticked all the boxes for me. The characters were very funny, especially Alan (Zach Galifianakis) who made me laugh out loud on several occasions. He was given most of the witty lines and Zach's innocent and childish portrayal of Alan over the two films has propelled him to a cult status. The other characters also held their own; Mr. Chow(Ken Jeong)who I was glad to see again was as always a good laugh. Both Stu (Ed Helms) and Phil (Bradley Cooper) were very good in their separate ways as well.

The plot also lived up to my expectations. As I've already said it was similar to the original, the main difference that the gang are in Bangkok, not Vegas. However, it was still entertaining and intriguing with many twists. If anything, this time round their adventure was even better and ludicrous.

This is a must see for all comedy fans.
