Louise Curtis Nothing says "comedy" more than the death of a crucial character at the worst possible moment.On the other hand, every single character who appeared on screen was so whiny/pathetic/stupid/slimy it made me want to kill each of them with a cake fork, so perhaps that death was actually the happy ending and all the rest was epilogue. Hard to say.I spent most of the movie wondering, "Why is Barney (from "How I Met Your Mother") pretending to be such a clichéd sap?" Then I wondered, "Why is Neil Patrick Harris acting so badly? Is he being ironic? Or just taking care not to outshine everyone else? Or is it the dialogue sticking in his throat?" If a single couple in this movie stayed married more than 24 hours, I'm shocked. They were, quite simply, useless and charmless cliché-spewing androids. The dewy-eyed expressions of every sympathetic female character upon seeing the dress was a particular highlight (ditto the slobbering joy of every man on seeing said women wearing the dress).The only part of the movie that made sense was the divorce.Also, the dog's acting seemed fine.By the halfway point, I was watching the movie for the pleasure of seeing my husband repeatedly bash himself over the head with a piece of styrofoam (you'll find this is a typical reaction to this film). We giggled more and more helplessly as the dialogue continued with heartfelt and subtle lines like: "It's even more beautiful than I remembered. . . and so are you. And so are you." Recommended drinking game: Drink whenever something bad happens to the dress; whenever a character does something criminally stupid; and whenever you swallow vomit due to a particularly heinous line of dialogue.Actually, just drink without stopping. That's the only way to watch this movie.
morrowinder This was a Hallmarky TV movie that would have been a tepid time waster but for the sweet shine of Kathryne Dora Brown as Zoey. I loved the beginning of the movie and I marked time to the end, hopeful that she would reappear. It didn't occur to me until almost the end of the movie that she might be Tyne Daly's real daughter but when I saw the resemblance to Daly and Georg Brown, I was surprised I hadn't known all along. I have to say that this is one "child of" who could easily make it on talent without connections.
Johnny Vinther Jensen (prometheus-dk) I happened to turn on the TV the other night and catch this gem of a movie. While it's outline may seem overly sentimental they manage to pull it off. With a solid performance by a couple of American TV-stables this movie succeeds in the difficult (and very misused) genre of romantic comedy. The plot weaves effortlessly between the different characters never spending too much time in one place and, thankfully, never overemphasizing the atmosphere. While not likely to win the Golden Palms this is certainly a worthwhile movie, so if you happen to catch it, don't change channels, it beats Jay Leno any day!
mame77 Being Neil Patrick Harris's BIGGEST fan, this movie was to cute!! The plot line was something very unique and nothing I have ever heard of in the past. After the movie I logged on to Amazon to see if it was based on a book, however, sadly I didn't find anything that said it was. And of course it helped that the movie ended just the way it should!! If you missed it the first time, find someone who taped it or look for it in reruns because it's worth the effort especially if you love Neil Patrick Harris too!!
