My First Wedding

Hi. Saw this on an afternoon on HBO with no expectations. I found myself laughing very hard at many parts. The charade part was especially hilarious ! Also, Nick's character and the acting from Kenny Doughty was great. Rachel Leigh looks great like always. Kenny is a great find and a nice English accent. So an OK movie by all means. See it if you have the chance on TV. I don't know why the previous posters were so mean with the film. Maybe they just expect every film to be Oscar level or a $100 million romantic comedy. It's just a Canadian/UK co-production and it succeeds at least in being funny. Watch it and you won't regret!

My fiancée wanted to rent this movie since we are getting married in about 4 months. I knew just from the cover I was going to hate it, but I just went along. Well, I did hate it. And so did she. The storyline was absurd; even though it IS a movie, no one in their right mind would believe that a real priest would act the way that the one in this movie does. The acting was definitely lacking - there were many scenes that just looked so unrehearsed it was sad. The priest character had some absolutely ridiculous acting scenes. I wouldn't waste your $3.95 or whatever you may pay to rent this one. I would have rated it a negative if that was an option.

It is deep night as i write this but the movie kept me up. The lead role guy is hilarious. And Leigh Cook, oh my god, she's so beautiful.

The plot is not something too original (as you could say from the first comments page) but there are many little scenes that have their own charm.

I'm no big specialist in actor play but I was really inspired by the play of the lead role guy. It really touched me to heart as he was making everything possible (lots of crazy things anybody would normally do) to be with the girl. Isn't it about life -- if you REALLY want something you will do crazy things to get it.

Watch it with your girl/boyfriend if you want a nice romantic movie -- I'm pretty sure you'll like it.

I saw this film at the Hollywood Film Festival recently and it was a lot of fun. It's a great date movie. In the film Rachael Leigh Cook is a jittery bride to be -- basically she's like a guy (only much cuter) who thinks about sex and buys all the time. She confides in her local priest only it's not her priest but the local carpenter and he falls in love with her and must stop her wedding. My date and I had a lot of fun watching this film and if you are a fan of Julia Stiles (Save the Last Dance, The Prince & I), Hilary Duff (Perfect Man) or Lindsey Lohan(Mean Girls) then you'll love this film!!! Take your boyfriend to see it and if you're a guy, trust me, take your girlfriend. I highly recommend it.

So it ain't so. Why am I constantly disappointed every time I see a Rachel Leigh Cook movie? Her beauty always draws me in, but the lousy scripts that she's constantly attached to always leave me running for the exit. This film is just another example of a film maker taking a beautiful, talented actress and shoving her into a predictable cookie cutter film that lacks originality. I've seen this movie a hundred times before in the last 10 years and I guess I must be a glutton for punishment because as long as I read in the entertainment section of the paper that a goddess like Rachel Leigh Cook is going to be on the big screen I will show up. One of these days I'm hoping I will see her in a film that will be worthy of her talent. This film does not qualify.
