I was lucky enough to see this film at the Savannah Independent Film and Video festival held at SCAD. The movie was truly funny, something most movies with mega-buck budgets and huge names usually fail to accomplish, as well as the fact that this movie was truly entertaining. The lead actress was amazing, and the film really carried its own weight. In some romantic comedies, you find yourself being bored because you've seen this movie 20 times before. You have seen this one 20 times before, but its still enjoyable because its so well done.

A lighthearted romantic romp and genuine feel-good movie, with lots of laugh out loud moments. The cast is talented and attractive. The always-stunning (in looks & talent) Amanda Wyss turns in a great performance as the lead's jaded sister. Roxanne Beckford's sultry-yet-accessible (contradictory qualities pulled off seamlessly) girl-next-door is every Everyman's fantasy. Bob Hoge has a natural acting style, movie-star good looks and perfect straight-man comic timing. Last but not least, Jay LaCopo's performance as the slobby/charming best friend is HILARIOUS! If you get a chance, SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!

When seeing a romatic comedy I tend to be quite prejudiced, and it does take a lot to please me in this field. Marry me or die failed to do so. The movie was written to the generic plot for a romantic comedy, very much like the plot "You've got mail" was written to, or better "When Harry met Sally". It however lacks the excitement of the interesting story those two movies do offer. This makes the movie not very interesting to watch, and I found it hard to stay focussed. Does this mean you should not see the movie? Not really. By times it is actually quite funny, and it is impossible to see this movie without having a couple of good laughs, and isn't that what seeing a comedy movie is all about?

And finally, if you're thinking about getting married you certainly should see the movie. It can act as a bucket of cold water for all you dreamers, offering a realistic view on the subject of marriage.
