Now this movie gets a three because I like the main character (the dad) who also plays a major role on Boston Legal, so he's like-able. The movie was enjoyable on the basis of how lame it actually was. So I found myself laughing in the sentimental parts. It's very safe, and very conservative. I came across this movie on TV, and watched it because it was pathetic basically.The plot is that the dad's first daughter gets engaged. Then the second. He stresses out because they want to be married on the same day. Then, you guessed it, the THIRD. Mummy and Daddy walk in on daughter kissing tubby boyfriend, and they announce their love and the dad faints.Why they need to wed within weeks at the age of 18, I don't get. It's very old fashioned and idealistic. In reality their lives would be very boring. Basically it's dull and the puns are predictive and unoriginal. Would of been OK in the 1940's, but not today. If you are Amish, you will like it. If you are intelligent at all, you won't.

Similar in spirit, theme, and approach to an old Robert Young TV movie from the '70's called All My Darling Daughters, where a loving Dad faces the bizarre circumstance of preparing for a triple wedding ceremony of his daughters. Vaguely similar to Father of the Bride, but the manic hysteria of the Dad is removed in this lower-key approach.Everybody's rich, and this film spares you from the rich jerks cliché. Everybody in the movie is the kind of a person you might like to have as a friend, even the one oddball in the bunch. There's gentle and tender sentiment, with just enough pratfalls to keep the light hearted intent intact. Nothing is overdone for cheap laughs, except maybe the yoga scene. The closeness of the sisters to one another, and with the parents: very sweet and believable. And it was nice to see Karen Valentine acting again.Overall, a sweet diversion that's very human and makes no pretenses.

Its a typical American feel-good movie which is supposed to be a romantic comedy. The comedy is hard to spot and an hour and a half of predictable romances is just too much. There are no real turns in the plot and you already know the end of the movie within the first half hour. The only good thing about the movie is the feel-good part of it. It does make you relax and feel all romantic, although this is often spoiled by a moment of simple humor. If you're looking for a movie to watch when you're really feeling like simple humor and not too much thinking to do, this is it, else don't do it because you won't survive for an hour and a half.

This made for TV film seems to be a remake/update of the classic 70's TV film All My Darling Daughters from 1972 w/Robert Young,Sharon Gless,Judy Strangis et all..Anybody else notice this? I know some producer or scriptwriter saw the original and came up with the idea to do a updated remake,has to be,since they're doing updated remakes left and right these days.Since there was a sequel to the original (All My Darling Daughters Anniversary 1973) wonder if they'll do another (Wedding Daze Again ??) Nice to see Karen Valentine back in action in a TV film,where has this talented actress been hiding..? She did many great TV films during the 70's and 80's (Coffee,Tea Or Me? 1972,Daughters Of Joshua Cabe 1972,Muggable Mary Street Cop 1982 come to mind) Lets hope she decides to do more..
