Its not that it doesnt maintain the requisite three act structure.

A bit dull, since Dillons constrained playing the straight guy, Hudson has little to work with, and Douglas looks bored.
Time Out
1.3
But in a film thats already established its protagonist as a raging, loathsome man, theres no room here for romantic notions of crime.

But the fault of You, Me and Dupree doesnt lie just with its star.

However, theres a tension throughout the film that threatens to sink it.

Imagine a sequel to What About Bob Starring Joel Murray that runs an elongated 109 minutes and its too long by about 109 minutes.

(Owen Wilson) not only carries the movie, but also bears the project proudly on his shoulders while dancing the Fandango.

All of this is done with benign obliviousness: Somehow, Dupree doesnt realize what an obnoxious, boorish jackass he is.

Owen Wilsons laid back slacker charm isnt enough to carry this flimsy, contrived comedy vehicle...
Radio Times

It also doesnt help that Hudsons character, despite moments of sharpness and energy, has one of the most insulting cutaway fantasies in memory.

While Mr. Wilson is a likeable guy in small (re: supporting) doses, a whole movies worth of his shtick can become tiresome.

Owen Wilson manages to make it sporadically pleasant, but not nearly enough to make up for the mediocrity of this overblown sitcom.
