And Mrs

I had not heard about this movie. But I love Ashley Bee. So I gave it a chance. I was surprised and delighted to be watching this movie. With all the different characters felt like being at home with my family. No one can agree and we are all fighting. But I really enjoyed it. I hope more give it likes.

I did find the name hard to search on IMDb possibly why the rating is so low. But has a lovely charm to this movie.

I would watch it again. And recommended it to my friends. Very family and older people friendly. No offence language or sexy bits. Can be enjoyed by all.

Must watch in PJ's with wine.

"And Mrs," the 2024 romantic dramedy, falls into the category of films that leave you with mixed feelings. While it has moments of charm, it often suffers from a lack of energy and depth, making the overall experience somewhat flat and occasionally boring.

The story, which tries to blend romance and drama, often feels too predictable and meandering. Pacing is a significant issue here; there are moments where scenes drag on, losing the viewer's attention. Some parts feel stretched without adding much to character development or plot progression.

That said, the film is not without its merits, and much of its appeal comes from Billie Lourd's performance. She brings a spark to her role that elevates an otherwise mediocre script. Lourd manages to carry the emotional weight of the film with grace and charisma, making her character the most engaging aspect of the story. Her nuanced portrayal is one of the few reasons to keep watching, and it's safe to say the majority of my 6/10 rating is owed to her talent.

In conclusion, while "And Mrs" has its flaw, it's still somewhat redeemable thanks to Billie Lourd's standout performance. For those looking for a light, if sometimes slow, romantic watch, it might be worth a try. But don't expect too much.

A very modern romcom drama tragedy hybrid kinda film with some funny moments and watchable enough but without ever hitting the heights. The writing is ok, the story of a bereaved girlfriend wanting to still go through with the marriage to her recently dearly departed is novel enough and the cast is in the main decent but it just doesn't come together as a whole. It flits between comedy and drama but the transitions are a bit jarring, the chemistry between the characters isn't there and you just don't care enough to engage with them nor the story. It isn't terrible and as said it's worth a watch, but it feels like it's trying to be a Richard Curtis style film and to be honest, it falls a long way short...

Based on the title, graphics and casting, I had expected this to be a Rom Com, but aside from one moment towards the end of the film where people are running through the streets of London with a wedding dress, where it gets very 'Love Actually', it isn't that at all.

It's actually quite dark, looking at love, unconventional love, grief, loss and how to handle it all.

There's a great cast and a really solid story, but it just never knows what it wants to be as a film. There are some cute moments, some really earnest moments and definitely some touching parts of the story.... But it flips back and forth rather confusingly and Gemma's (Aisling Bea) relationship with her friends and family changes on a dime without explanation, almost as though some scenes were lost in the edit.

That being said, it's well worth a watch, just not on a night when you want to watch something light and fluffy.

Yes, I watched it. I find it very silly. No character in this film is anywhere warm as those in Richard Curtis films and I won't state the ones I like because there are so many. Aisling Bea, well, mostly I find her unlikeable. Billy Lourd, throwing up in a Prada bag, disgusting...why there is a repetition of people throwing up in films lately shocks me. If this is a new trend, I don't like it. Is this raw, unsophisticated and trying to be trendy? Good luck to you.... If my review is too short, I will elaborate. Four Weddings and a Funeral, must see, funny, sad and poignanat. Notting Hill,, wonderful, true to life, and fantastical. Love actually, who woudn't like this film? The cast in these three films is amazing, their stories, heart warming. The fact that the woman who wants to get married to her dead fiance doesn't quite resonate with me. Sorry. I hope this is enough words.
