Un drôle de mariage

Wow! I was woefully disappointed in this movie. Pointlessly vulgarity at every turn. I couldn't take it & had to turn it off.

It wasn't a funny movie, and the romance was not existent, but even if this wasn't supposed to be a romantic film, it wasn't anything else!

Forced myself to watch through the end, but was very disappointed. The only thing left for me to think at that point was that I couldn't believe some very good actors agreed to participate in this film.

Do not waste your time.

A doppled canvas of characters and motivations make this a funny story but less than a funny movie. It is hard to follow and difficult to relate to the leads. I really wanted to like Kathleen Turner but she and Frances Fisher are both a bit less than the stars they once were. I found myself thinking about my shopping list during the touching moments where I should be touched. The stars are really Jessica Pare as Carrie the off the grid artist sister and Wallace Shawn as the platonic date for Barbara. Also a shout out to the character of Q who could have bumped the interest up a notch if given more dialogue.

THEY certainly are. And not getting enough of Montreal to make it worth watching any more.

I did rate it higher than a lot of people because there are some gems, but not worth my time right now. I have a good book waiting for me.

Do think it would have been a bit better sans the Carrie actress. She ruined Mad Men for me, so .................. I am NOT a fan.

An ensemble cast of friends and family meet in Montreal for a wedding. I thought the cinematography of the city was sublime, but, unfortunately it might have been the best part of this movie.

There was an occasional chuckle here but for the most part the comedy, which is often crude, awkward, and even mean-spirited, was just plain flat and ineffective, in my opionion. The strong cast just can't save this one.

Overall, I would say save yourself the pain and pass on this one.
