Love, Wedding, Marriage

This film has some of the most outrageous characters. I understand trying to be funny, but some of these people, like the fitness lady, the shrink, the Polish girlfriend and even the mom were just too ridiculous. There was talk about sex in a very awkward (makes you cringe kind of ) way. Mandy's character was too shallow and blind.

I could go on. There really wasn't even one scene where I smiled or connected with, and that's difficult, considering that I LOVE romance and chick flicks.

Do yourself a favor and skip this one, unless you really enjoy irrational, crazy, thinking they are so funny, characters.

When I found this film I knew what I was in for. A formulaic romantic comedy that should entertain all of the romantics out there. Although there is not originality there is a certain charm about the film that tops up a lot romantic comedies out there. This is not a film for a film buff to get something out off right when he leaves the theater. This is a film to enjoy while it lasts, and enjoy the beautiful people in this film. This is not a film that will define the way we make films. This is just pure entertainment. So if you go into this film with the exact mind set you will enjoy it like I did. But if you go into this film looking for career changing acting and an original plot then do not watch this film for it is only pure entertainment.

Four motives, in my case, for see this romcom : the name of director, Jane Seymour, James Brolin and Mandy Moore. And, sure, not less, a Kellan Lutz more attractive for his body than for his acting.

In essence, a serious fist of cliches ( not exactly a surprise ), jokes for film team ( not exactly for audience ), unrealist in full spoon style, not so pleasant stereotypes about Eastern young ladies and sexual references as blink to part of viewers.

In fact, a film about nothing ( except, maybe, the idealisation of parents and their relatin ) . But enough for a very easy comedy and for admirers of actors.

Kellan Lutz's character is charming and likable but the same cannot be said about Mandy Moore's character. Ava is obnoxious and prideful who thinks that because she is now a marriage psychologist she knows all about marriage. Another flat character is Ava's younger sister. She is unprofessional and although they put her for comedic relief, she does not succeed. The sister is supposed to be the young wise one but the lines that they give her are too predictable. I found the plot boring, foreseeable, and unrealistic. I just did not like it but that is not to say it did not have some good scenes. In Mandy Moore's defense, her acting was fine but her lines distasteful/disagreeable. The emotions/actions she puts into her parents relationship are more of child not wanting their parents' divorce instead of an adult who can understand that sometimes relationships just do not work out.

LOVE, WEDDING, MARRIAGE – TRASH IT ( D ) Love, Wedding, Marriage is a disastrous addition in to the rom com movies. From beginning till the end there is no sensibility to the characters or the movie itself. Mandy Moore's approach to finding out that her parents are getting divorce was awful, from the second scene a person can easily imagine in which direction this movie going too. The director try to put some cheesy comedic scenes, dialogues and moments to make this movie enjoyable but sadly it just fire back at him. With some movie even if script is not strong, performances makes movie strong but it fell flat in that department as well. Mandy Moore delivered same boring acting chops, she showcased in previous rom com movies like "License to Wed" & "Because, I said so". Trust me if you play her scenes from all these movies, you won't be able to figure out which scenes is from which movies, she is the same annoying winning romcom wannabee queen. Mandy Moore should stick to animated version of herself like Tangled. "Love, Wedding, Marriage" is just another disastrous attempt after "License to Wed" and "Because, I said so" to become a Rom-Com queen. Kellan Lutz is good when he is shirtless because his acting is atrocious, no-wonder he has almost non-speaking part in "Twilight Saga". Jessica Szore is Gorgeous, I can never figure out why she always looked so awful in Gossip Girl? Overall, Love, Wedding, Marriage is a dreadful 90mints of romcom, you defiantly want to avoid.
