    Nothing happens

    Uneven pace. Weirdly long DJ wedding scenes. Both main characters are a-holes. Some of the dialogue is entertaining but there isn't enough of it. Scenes you want to go longer, conversations that are interesting, are too short. Scenes that seem throw away go on far too long. The timeline of events are prominently labeled as if the cure for cancer is on it somewhere. It's baffling.
