So glad I watched
I didn't know what to expect because I'd not heard of it beforehand, but I was pleasantly surprised. I fully resonated with Alicia's character and how she wanted to fully and freely live though she felt she'd missed her prime opportunity. As crazy as it may seem I was hoping that she would have participated in some small way during the beach scene towards the end of the movie, though I don't know how she would have seeing as her brother was there.
Sister of the Groom is a romantic, chaotic, funny, and relatable ride.

Avoid this if you're Alicia Silverstone fan...
A really disappointing, disjointed story that could have been so, so much better if actor and producer Alicia Silverstone had focused on one or two of the storylines. We're big fans but want to forget and should have avoided this film effort of hers.
Strange & Unique Midlife Fairytale
In a both broad and nuanced performance, Silverstone heads the cast of Sister of the Groom as Audrey, woman attending her brother's wedding on a date which was switched at the last minute to the weekend of her 40th birthday. Over the course of the weekend, Audrey's resentment piles up against Clemence, the young and careless bride, highlighting Audrey's own midlife issues.
The film has many funny moments but is not a comedy. The excellent script is full to bursting with character, backstory, history and humanity but the real spine of the story are Audrey and Clemence, portrayed in an excellent performance by Mathilde Olivier, despite an almost too dislikeable character, an oversight on the part of of writer director Amy Miller Gross.
Sister of the Groom was better written, constructed and cast than most films out there. Gross is definitely a film maker to watch.

Terrible
Aweful!! Alicia Silverstone's acting is terrible. What a waste of time. I kept waiting for it to get better but it just got worse. Don't waste your time unless you think she's a good actor.
Why
How can such a bad actress still be acting? This movie was horrible and the acting didn't help. The type of movie that makes you not care for any of the characters because it's so dumb.
Did you know
- TriviaTom Everett Scott was asked to join the cast of the film when Alicia Silverstone called him and asked, "Will you be my husband again?" referring to their last appearance together in Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul (2017) where they also played a married couple. Scott signed on prior to reading the script as he had a "wonderful experience" and "got along very well" with his co-star.
