That was an excellent one.
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
View MoreThe movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
View MoreThe story: Sam finds her prince and she is organizing her perfect wedding. But she has also to prepare the new project for her company as well, a real career opportunity. And to top it all, an old flame of hers comes and makes everything even more difficult. The good parts: The story is quite easy and entertaining by itself. The line of the events doesn't confuse and keeps the interest at a certain level. The bad news: The performances are weak, the confession part cheesy and seem like it was made by someone still wet behind the ears, the whole scenario lucks originality and it is not funny. But, even if it's not a movie that I'm going to watch again, it is okay for a boring afternoon, so 2 out of 10, for the effort.
View MoreI guess I can't describe it in a better or shorter clearer way: Boring and Stupid. Acting? what acting? why are all the actors laughing while Reading their lines??? they just never stopped laughing or smiling even when it was the most "dramatic" moment! The "plot" was one of the most predictable plots in the history of TV. and not only is Sam a total $lut, but ugly as hell too!! what happened to that "actress"?? I remember she was hot in American Pie. here she is so damn ugly!!!! puffy face full of bags, or whatever these are. and the happy ending?? no one to tell the poor viewers that these 2 are doomed??? very soon he will wonder why he took her back (because she was hot in American Pie?? or because he used to drool over her topless pics when he was younger, on the internet??) He will soon start wondering if she ever slept with that Luke, but hiding it from him. He will soon start seeing how shallow and self centered she is. and he will hate how everyone just knows him as the husband who married the woman who kissed the other guy. (is there anyone who didn't know about her thing with Luke??) then he will start seeing other girls attractive and charming (and caring)! then he will start flirting, and maybe kissing them, making Sam taste her own poison. then will she accept his apology? or act like an ugly B!tch and go out again and kiss or flirt with the first sleazy a$$hole she meets??? so.. the actors can't act. the plot is so weak and predictable. you hate the Bride for being s|utty and selfish. the Groom for being an idiot. the 3rd person for being an arrogant dumb a$$hole.sorry for all the swearing. but this "film" suxxxx. Big time.
View MoreThere are elements of the plot in this review but I can't see you making it to the end so it might not be a bad idea to just read this and skip the actual movie.Sam has the man of her dreams. He proposes to her and she turns into a crazed bride to be. This drives her fiancé away so what does she do, she kisses someone else (which is, obviously, his fault too). She says her mother only notices her sister and not her but I didn't actually see her mother talk to the sister once. When the engagement is called off, her fiancé comes to see her and, in the most clichéd style of these kinds of films, she let's him go to stop hurting him more which is clearly a self centred act and...It goes on. The key to a movie that people will actually be able to watch to the end is to have a protagonist that has some characteristics that one can empathise with or at least admire. Hannibal ate people but he had immense style and culture. Sam, in this film, has absolutely NO redeeming characteristics at all! When it all falls apart (because of her) she decides to have a go at the guy she wanted before.Does she decide that she has made a mistake because she has been a complete and utter b*tch? No, she only decides when she finds out that the "dream guy" is actually not very nice.What is the future for this couple? At the first sign of any problems she will look somewhere else then, when it all go wrong, she'll go back and the idiot Ben will take her back.I hated Sam. I wanted Ben to leave her and find someone who he deserved. I wanted her to settle with Luke who would treat her like she treated Ben. I wanted her to have a very, very unhappy ever after.On top of hating the main character, the film itself was absolute rubbish too. I assume this was supposed to be a romantic comedy but it wasn't (either romantic - idiot doormat man takes completely self obsessed woman - or comedic).I often wonder at the waste of film used to make garbage like this and I suggest the writers re-familiarise themselves with the concept of a heroine.
View MoreI was totally prepared to dislike this movie, why? No clue. but Shannon Elizabeth is quite charming and adorable and the guys? Not too shabby either both very cute and both engaging in their prospective roles, one as the lovable yet somewhat clueless fiancé and the other as the hunk who got away. There are performances by some women in the film, you know the usual bitchy and catty lot and the one real cool one. It plays well and quickly and in usual TV movie it has the problem as well as the rush to a resolution as the movie is nearly done. But all in all it is a fun time. I have proof! My boyfriend watched and laughed! He laughed although he pretended not to watch it. I suggest to go out and pick it up as it's on DVD!!!
