A Wedding Most Strange

The concept for this movie.....having to find a spouse in a short amount of time in order to receive a substantial inheritance.....is something that could be made into a comedy. Unfortunately, hardly any of the writing in this movie was funny. I only laughed a few times when Raj's traditional looking British Indian parents made their appearance. The primary character, Danny, was not well developed. We never were shown that he was indeed a nice catch. In fact, he seemed cocky and self-interested most of the time. Just a poor execution all the way around...too slow, not funny and not well developed.

The idea is quite common: In order to inheritance, a man must wed. The new fact here is that he is gay. Out of this idea there could be good achievements, but this wasn't the case. The film is so boring, maybe because of the script, maybe because of the main actor, maybe because of the direction, maybe because of all this and something more. The fact is you'll have difficulty in getting linked to this movie. There are some scenes that are actually funny, but there isn't much more than it. As a whole, this isn't the kind of entertainment I would recommend for someone looking for a good gay rom-com. It can only be a passing time for someone that already have seen all good things in stock, and isn't willing to re-watch some of them.

Ref the previous reviewer - you really have missed the point. I guess you thought this was going to be a gay porn film just because it has a gay storyline . The whole point of this movie is that its a romantic comedy and some of the characters just happen to be gay. I do agree tho that the production values are incredible, comparable to Bridget Jones or Love Actually. This is a Brit comedy, beautifully shot, has an amazing soundtrack and acted with believable feeling and emotion. A Blockbuster family movie, not a side street bookstore flick.

This film was shot over a period of 3 weeks and in some of the most beautiful locations in north Devon, England. The main character, Danny ( Chris Finch, character actor from Coronation Street and Holyoaks) has to find a partner to be able to claim his inheritance. He turns to the internet for a quick solution. After a series of interviews and hook-ups with an assortment of men, he narrows the possible lucky man down to three. The wedding is booked, all 3 possible "husbands" arrive .... but who will the lucky man be?

Add to this that his previous wife is also in the running .........

A great British farce ensues .....
