Confessions of an American Bride

I have to say from the start that the movie is not so bad ... but it has the classic situations and problems that the girls have when they chose the man that will be all in their lives . The plot is good and want's to improve the latest movies that had the same issue but I think they failed to do that because the actors are not so realistic in the way they act .

After the first 20 minutes of the movie i said ... well i should be going home by now because i already know who she will chose from the two so there's noting to see but my friends made me stay and i don't regret this because the second part of the movie was a bit more funny and interesting i could say .

In the end i will say that you could wait to see this movie at home alone if you don't have anything to do at that time , it will make time passing a little more quickly than normal .

I 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.

I used to like Shannon when she was younger, but she seems to become a worse actress as she has gotten older (something I thought was impossible for anyone).

This woman is now totally unbelievable as an actress and casting her as some girl next door character just doesn't work anymore (especially when you see how difficult it was for the makeup people to hide the bags under her eyes).

The plot was totally unbelievable too and how this film ever got funded is beyond me.

I must say that I actually fell asleep watching this and decided to watch the bits I missed simply because I wanted to warn people to stay away from this film.

Do yourself a favour and go watch paint dry.

The female lead talks to the camera like a teenager on a Disney channel show. Giggling stupidly at things that aren't funny, making odd excited facial expressions (and other supposed emotions that look faked here). Talking in a little girl high pitched voice.

Anyway, she's engaged to a "nice" guy, seemingly because he was nice (and that is all the shallow basis she needs for a life-long relationship). He let her do whatever she wanted - the female dream according to Hollywood.

Along comes a guy she had a crush on in the past and Mr nice Guy is suddenly Mr boring and the crush is some inflated dream of a man. In the end she and Mr Nice Guy are back together because the crush was a fake nice guy. Let's be real, he was the male equivalent of self-centred her.

This movie is an example of why the divorce rates will continue being high, people living in fantasies rather than getting married to people they really love. Expecting excitement every day instead of life. Juvenile adults all about themselves and their own wants.

Hardly a movie young women or men should be watching and thinking is romantic.

I 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!!!
