Well, after suffering through the oppressive piles of THE JERK, DUMB & DUMBER, BILLY MADISON, anything with Will Ferrell, Seth Rogan, Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn, or Jason Segel, ladies now have their turn to be profanely socially immature in the hilarious big screen comedy MIKE AND DAVE NEED WEDDING DATES.

The film costars Diane Lane as Trumbo's long-suffering wife Cleo, Louis C.K. as his cantankerous fellow blacklistee Arlen Hird, Helen Mirren as gossip columnist Hedda Hopper, and John Goodman as Frank King, the B-movie studio exec who hired Trumbo despite his banishment.
