Different Flowers

It was kind of a road movie, but it all had ended sooner than the rest of the story come into effect. The story of a runaway bride. She hits the road with her troubled little sister. They decide to go to the place where they grew up together. Along the way, they encounter a few things. Like doing some mischievous things, shopping, et cetera. When they reach their destination, they try to make the most of it like nothing had happened. But it always keeps haunting them, which leads to quarrels between them. So what happens later, how their unplanned trip ends were revealed in the remaining parts.

It was so simple. But there's nothing new. The cast, especially the two sisters makes it looks decent. Personally, I liked the little one. I thought it was predictable, and in the most cases it was, but there were some unexpected new developments happened. Particularly the new romance. After all it was not a bad film. But if you think so, then it's just you are not the audience they aimed for. Maybe if I was a woman, I could have liked it better. I've enjoyed watching it, but in the end, I felt it was an average film. I hope the film finds its audience, one of them could be you. So choose it wisely.

6/10

I heard about this movie from a friend and decided to check it out. I am glad I did. My family watched it over break and there was something in this movie for everyone. The detail and care the director went to made this such an enjoyable film for everyone. Grandma Mildred, Shelley Long, was delightful in this movie. The setting in a farm town was very fun to watch. All the characters added so much to each scene; I want to go to the diner!! It is a story that captures you from the first scene and you want to see it to the end because each scene holds something new and interesting. I give it a thumbs up and will watch it again on Showtime.

Relationships are complicated and so are people, whether they are friends or siblings. But we need them both. When i watched this movie i more or less felt the same. As we have seen in various movies were the bride is desperate to get married and the groom has the cold feet. But here it is the other way around.

Though the genre is comedy, i didn't felt any. There is no real emotion or a punch line that you would expect. I think its tries to explore the relationship between sisters rather than the marriage or following ones need, but i don't know how far it has succeeded on that part.

Over all i give this movie a 5 for not being boring, watch it if you want to kill some time. All other aspects of the movie is fine i guess.

I watched this film because I found the story of a young woman, jilting her beau and going on a journey of self-discovery--with her flamboyant sister no less--would present interesting conflict. If this was a vanity project for Shelley Long, she needs a long look in the mirror, because instead of a worthwhile story, what the viewer gets is a formulaic, meandering 99 minutes that ends predictably, but could have been so much better with a few tweaks. The problem is underscored by the movies ending, when Millie--the runaway bride--has her epiphany, which comes with such a suddenness that it seems as if the writer centered the entire premise around that one scene. Two, the grandmotherly advice given (Shelly Long) at the end would have better served both Millie and Ellen (her sister) had it been imparted before the sisters hit the road; in this way, it would have given a believable reason for the sisters' on-the-road conflict. However, the film does offer two solid performances by the sister, played by Emman Bell (whom viewers might remember as Amy Harrison on The Walking Dead) and Hope Lauren. But Long comes up short as the sage grandmother, and the men are cookie-cutter softies and horn dogs whose presence is largely irrelevant. In short, the film comes off as out of sequence and a waste of time unless you literally have nothing better to do than waste an hour and a half.

Emma Bell is the best part of this movie especially given the poor dialogue. Quite charming.

This is clearly a chick flick because only women could be patient enough to deal with the slow pace and introspection.

As a guy, I liked Emma who incidentally has beautiful legs which you see a lot.

As movies go this one is neither good nor bad.
