The Wedding Guest

Has its moments (especially the first 20 minutes) but ultimately meanders its way to nowhere with a few pointless stops and illogical plots twists in between. Well acted though the Indian backdrop is probably the true star.

Just to put in plain and simple words, the start of the movie was brilliant the director right away catches the attention of the audience and they get lured into the storyline. Dev was great no doubt about that but the only issue I have throughout the film was the background of the female lead character (Radhika Apte). The director didn't give out any such information on how the personality of the female lead is and how it would react in situations put before the movie. The rest is brilliant. I do understand one could say on one of the dialogues when Radhika asks Dev can you I trust you and he says No maybe that is the answer but once again that is situational not the background. Anyways its a good movie but the ending as I agree with my fellow watchers could have been great instead of the this then this movie would have done more business guaranteed.

I saw the bad reviews and thought they were wrong. This is a really novel story a Bonnie & Clyde with a subcontinental twist. Acting and scenery were beautiful. Worth a watch.

Great beginning interesting cultural arranged wedding storyline great streetscapes taking me back to India and Pakistan action adventure drama romance - I kind of liked the abrupt unhappy yet happy ending It felt realistic (or maybe that's just from my experience with romance hahaa) I liked it! 7 out of 10!!

The Wedding Guest should have been an engaging and rock solid thriller like t was advertised to be (the trailer is arguably one of the best I've seen in awhile). Unfortunately, the movie was a huge slog and went on for way too long without really going anywhere or proving anything. Dev Patel was fantastic as always and the romance was great, but at what cost?
