    Latin cast adds fun twist to a great classic!

    If you like Latin culture, Miami views and a good romantic comedy, then see this movie. Love the blend between the Cuban and Mexican influences. The movie is definitely better second half of the film. !Que disfruten!

    Standard Remake in this era style.

    Take a beloved movie - force fit, gender swaps, nationality and sexuality to appear inclusive. And at the end of the day - for the political cash grab using nostalgia to gain money.

    Literally the Covid - short reunion clip - of the original cast as if their characters had continued was much more entertaining that this.

    Add this to the list: Ocean 8 Ghostbusters 2018 Home Sweat Home Alone Etc.

    Miss the days movies were made with original ideas, heart and soul.

    Ok if you haven't seen the original....

    Ok if you haven't seen the original....bored me in the beginning and was far too sickly sweet at the end, also lacked the comedy of the original, putting an overly complicated plot in its place.

    Should have been named "Feel Sorry for the Bride"

    So first off, to be clear, this is NOT a comedy. There's very little if any humor in it at all. It's not a spoiler to say the Father & Mother of the bride are getting a divorce, as it's literally the first scene of the movie. The father proceeds to spend basically the whole rest of the movie, showing WHY they are getting said divorce. He is, put plainly, an >insert profanity here<.

    He spends his screen time antagonizing his whole family. He talks down to them, he talks over them, he ignores everything they say and everything they want. He forces himself to be the center of attention, and by his own statement (multiple times) says that because he has money he gets to make all decisions. This ignores the fact that the Bride & Groom expressly state they don't even want his money, but he forces the issue. This is interspersed with solo scenes of him moping around, sad faced, lamenting the current state of his life (which he's brought on himself by his own horribleness). It's clear the writers try to include moments where you're supposed to feel some sympathy for him, but this is completely overshadowed by the fact that he is written as an absolutely unlikeable >repeat profanity here< who doesn't actually earn any sympathy.

    When you've made it through 90 minutes of a 2 hour movie, and you realize that you simply don't care about anything at all that is happening in the slightest, that's a giant red flag. When you dislike a character enough that you don't care about the writers sad attempt at a redemption arc, another big red flag. This movie was a great example of both.

    Not riddled with comedy, but a gorgeous backdrop for a Latin family drama carried by Andy Garcia.

    I am going to start by saying that the original Father of The Bride (1950) with Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennett, and Elizabeth Taylor is still my favorite, of course I am a classic film fan and in response to those who think that it is dated...I don't think the sentiment of a loving father who is going to miss his beloved daughter when she leaves the home in marriage is outdated, and if it is...I think that is a sad commentary on our current society. Second confession, I love Steve Martin and I think the version pairing him with Diane Keaton (1991) was comedy gold. And my final confession I have a Latin bias...so I was thrilled to see Andy Garcia back on the big screen especially in a role where he isn't a criminal and I really enjoyed seeing Gloria Estefan. I appreciated that they had Cuban actors playing Cuban roles and Mexican actors playing Mexican roles...and don't think I didn't catch the Latinx commentary.

    This is a big Latin take on Father of The Bride and it is set in Miami, the home of our Cuban-American family that is headed by successful architect Billy Herrera (played by Andy Garcia). The old town Miami back drop is spectacular and the home that they chose as the family home "designed and built by Billy" is gorgeous and worth seeing. Another twist in this version of FOTB is the discussion of divorce, the film starts with Billy and his wife in therapy, where they have been for over a year, deciding to get divorced. Like the other FOTB films, the story is told from the father's perspective and this father has a lot coming at him...his wife divorcing him, his beloved daughter marrying and moving to Mexico and no one wanting to do the wedding in the traditional way as he does.

    I will say the looming divorce gives this film a far more melancholic feel than the other Father of The Bride films...but I hope that doesn't deter you from giving it a watch. Andy Garcia really carries this film and both his wedding speech and his conversation with his future son-in-law are endearing and well delivered.

    There was a little poking fun of the 'instagram generation' around the wedding planner and her ideas about having a flamenco and flamingo wedding...it wouldn't be so sad and funny if it didn't have some truth to it.

    My husband's favorite part the latin take on a Daft Punk song.

    Not for everyone, but maybe not worthy of all of the disparaging remarks.
