Plot: Carl and Molly Peterson are just starting their new life together --complete with a cute house, boring neighbors, stable jobs and the routines of newlywed existence. There's just one unfortunate hitch...( read more read more... ) in their perfectly constructed new world. And his name is Dupree. Randy Dupree, Carl's oldest friend and perpetual bachelor, has found himself with nowhere to go after being fired. Carl yanks his jobless/homeless pal out of the bar he's living in and invites him to temporarily crash on the couch -- that's just what friends do. At first, Carl is quite pleased to have his good buddy as a permanent couch guest, while Molly bears the brunt of Dupree's immature antics. But, as Carl becomes buried in his grown-up job, he finds it harder and harder to juggle Dupree and his responsibilities as a husband. To make matters worse, Dupree uses his ample spare time to become a great companion for Molly. Even her dad and the neighbors are falling for his carefree wisdom and charm -- frustrating Carl to no end. Soon, everyone (but Carl) begins to root for Dupree to stick around. But as Dupree starts to become a fixture in the Peterson's home, three becomes not just a crowd -- but a full blown, hilarious catastrophe.

    ''I don't know, I have a hard time imagining Audrey Hepburn getting buttered up to Funky Cold Medina.''
    ''Really? I don't.''


    A best man stays on as a house-guest with the newlyweds, much to the couple's annoyance...which later turns around...

    Owen Wilson: Dupree

    Kate Hudson: Molly

    Matt Dillon: Carl

    Another comedy, another laugh but it's so silly Dupree doesn't really have a stable plot however it goes nuts on the whole best friend over-stays his welcome and becomes a menace then it evolves then everything starts to get confused.

    Granted this Dupree makes you laugh in area's yet it's a safety blanket for Owen Wilson who's done more comedies than i can count, hopefully this offering will earn all involved abit of money from returns of couples who saw it at the cinema hoping for a romantic/comedy/silly piece.

    Kate Hudson picks some shite films to be in, lets face it, granted i was impressed with Skeleton Key recently.
    Matt Dillon always acts like a block head with exceptions like Crash which show he can act on occasion.
    Michael Douglas doesnt need to do this film but like Sentinel he's cashing in for abit of unneeded Cash.

    Ok i have had a go and we know now it's pointless but i guess end of the day Depree is meant to be. It's beefed up as a roaring laughter escapade in the trailers, it turns out to be stuck in a washing machine state where it's half baked but lacks a much needed point by it's conclusion.

    Good for a giggle but a flawed comedy.

    I really can't stand Owen Wilson, I'm not a fan of Kate Hudson and why Matt Dillon would want to act in a film like this is beyond me. The most funny thing about this is the strange and awkward performance from Michael Douglas, he was totally out of place. The jokes were barely laughable and jokes that you have seen in a dozen other movies. I'm completely angry at myself for losing an hour and a half of my life, when I could have been doing something worthy and life-changing. I now never want to watch anything with Owen Wilson in ever again, he's one of the most annoying actors out there and the fact that he plays an annoying character is double the painful viewing.

    Good movie. Funny and sweet while showing the true nature of how people react to stress.

    not horrible. certainly not the cookie-cutter-episodic-bad house guest comedy I was expecting, which is a plus. it has a few laughs and a few enjoyable moments--very well-cast as well, but overall it's pretty forgettable. just your average romantic comedy with heart as far as I'm concerned.

    Can I please have the last 90 minutes of my life back? Not anywhere near as funny as it could have been, and it kinda pissed me off... everyone kept getting mad at Carl and he's the only one I found legit! Owen Wilson kept me from crying or falling asleep but that's about it.
