And Mrs

I had not heard about this movie. But I love Ashley Bee. So I gave it a chance. I was surprised and delighted to be watching this movie. With all the different characters felt like being at home with my family. No one can agree and we are all fighting. But I really enjoyed it. I hope more give it likes.

I did find the name hard to search on IMDb possibly why the rating is so low. But has a lovely charm to this movie.

I would watch it again. And recommended it to my friends. Very family and older people friendly. No offence language or sexy bits. Can be enjoyed by all.

Must watch in PJ's with wine.

There is such an abundance of terrible films lately. Either no story to speak of, or an ok idea but executed extremely poorly. Most of them feel like money laundering schemes instead of films.

But every now and then, there is still one that gives me hope, and shows that some people still know how movies should be made.

I enjoyed And Mrs from start to finish, I shed some tears, got angry, and laughed very hard. The story, as simple as it was, kept me engaged, the humour was alive and mostly adorable, and Aisling Bea felt very genuine, carrying the movie with ease.

Was it a perfect movie? Not by a long shot. There's a long list of movies that I love with a passion and think they are better than this one. Not every movie needs to be The Shawshank Redemption or Steel Magnolias. This one, I probably would not watch every weekend, but I sure had fun watching it once, and probably would give it another go some time later.

"And Mrs," the 2024 romantic dramedy, falls into the category of films that leave you with mixed feelings. While it has moments of charm, it often suffers from a lack of energy and depth, making the overall experience somewhat flat and occasionally boring.

The story, which tries to blend romance and drama, often feels too predictable and meandering. Pacing is a significant issue here; there are moments where scenes drag on, losing the viewer's attention. Some parts feel stretched without adding much to character development or plot progression.

That said, the film is not without its merits, and much of its appeal comes from Billie Lourd's performance. She brings a spark to her role that elevates an otherwise mediocre script. Lourd manages to carry the emotional weight of the film with grace and charisma, making her character the most engaging aspect of the story. Her nuanced portrayal is one of the few reasons to keep watching, and it's safe to say the majority of my 6/10 rating is owed to her talent.

In conclusion, while "And Mrs" has its flaw, it's still somewhat redeemable thanks to Billie Lourd's standout performance. For those looking for a light, if sometimes slow, romantic watch, it might be worth a try. But don't expect too much.

Based on the title, graphics and casting, I had expected this to be a Rom Com, but aside from one moment towards the end of the film where people are running through the streets of London with a wedding dress, where it gets very 'Love Actually', it isn't that at all.

It's actually quite dark, looking at love, unconventional love, grief, loss and how to handle it all.

There's a great cast and a really solid story, but it just never knows what it wants to be as a film. There are some cute moments, some really earnest moments and definitely some touching parts of the story.... But it flips back and forth rather confusingly and Gemma's (Aisling Bea) relationship with her friends and family changes on a dime without explanation, almost as though some scenes were lost in the edit.

That being said, it's well worth a watch, just not on a night when you want to watch something light and fluffy.

A fresh romantic comedy directed by Daniel Reisinger and penned by Melissa Bubnic takes a contemporary approach, reflecting the latest cultural shifts. The mention of Soros in the credits sheds light on the underlying influences at play. Marketed as a charming and humorous exploration of grief and everlasting love, this film challenges the notion that death is a taboo subject. Reisinger's AND MRS skillfully employs humor to navigate a challenging premise. After the sudden death of her fiancé, Gemma finds herself torn between her hesitations about marriage and her overwhelming sorrow. When she learns of an obscure law permitting posthumous weddings, she and her estranged future sister-in-law embark on a quest for an extraordinary solution. However, complications arise...

Aisling Bea delivers a standout performance as Gemma, and the film offers several thought-provoking quotes that linger long after viewing.
