Almost Married

The movie kept me glued to the screen. In the same league as the hangover or even better. Does not deserve this rating. If you have a brain you will enjoy this film.

Almost Married perfectly depicts "young" British culture with its hilarious yet disastrous consequences. Although the protagonist was male, I found myself laughing hysterically and connecting with Kyle as I followed his journey of desperation to uncover the truth related to that fateful night. The young British cast only added to the credibility of the film and their on screen chemistry helped me (and each member of the audience no doubt) relate to the characters and their story.

The highlight of this comedy is that it does not push into the absurd - an irritating tactic used in so many other British comedies for a cheap laugh. It refines itself by touching on the darker moments within relationships and the boundaries of trust, whilst still retaining a decent level of humour.

Definitely a film I'd highly recommend and I look forward to seeing what else the talented Ben Cookson has up his sleeve!

Sitting in the cinema, I very much enjoyed laughing out loud many times during the film. There aren't many films that I would say that about; this is truly one of them.

It's not just a comedy; there is good depth to the story and the characters, with some darker moments and very serious challenges to deal with. The film is looking at male and female differing attitudes towards sex, relationships, truth and honesty. What does happen on a stag do? This is one humorous take on it.

There are some nice twists to keep you thinking. In the end the story is left a little open for the audience to make up there own mind, which works well.

All in all is worth watching.

The best thing about Almost Married is smoking hot Emily Attack (Atack). Other than her the plot of this film mimics such Vince Vaughan gems of the absurd as the Dilemma....where you have an obvious problem and an equally obvious solution, something that eludes the two buddies who are the main characters...a future bridegroom and his self serving manipulative best man.

They take a serious yet simple problem and morph it into a saga-like road trip in an attempt to find a hooker who may have given the groom the clap only a few weeks before his wedding. Unlike the In-Betweeners, the two guys are adult English working class pals who act so gormless you may understand why some school GCSE scores are so low.

There are few laughs in this film because stupidity is passed off as comedy without any basis or punch-line for humour. By the film's end it had become so tedious I couldn't wait for the credits.

I'm looking for some intelligent comedy being made other than Woody Allen films. The British used to be good at this. This film isn't one of those products.

If you've watched this film and given it a low viewer rating score, just go back and watch the last 15-20 minutes or so again. Because that's the heart of the film.. that and the scene where his close friend reveals to him what ultimately becomes the damning confession when linked with the ending. It's a pretty darned good little film. Maybe lots of viewers would want to be the 'fly on the wall' and see what transpires shortly thereafter.. I know I would. There's lots left to a thought process that takes place off-screen in this film. It's not always the most entertaining of methods to put forth to the viewing audience.. but it can at times be very effective. Watch the film again.. then decide how you ultimately feel about it.
