The Wedding Trip

What a surprise! What started out as awkward and a bit cringey ended up as a hilarious rom com road trip movie with Jack and Samantha, an odd couple with some real chemistry who travel to a wedding while trying to figure each other out while both growing as individuals and exploring the possibility of being a couple. It was both laugh out loud funny and endearingly sweet. A lovely film about figuring out yourself and making the best of "interesting travel partners."

Not bad, not great. I actually felt the main actors had chemistry together. Their scenes together seemed real and honest. So I enjoyed that. Every single other character was unnecessary to the story. Bad acting, horrible lines, and not funny "gross" humor. I could've done without all of them. The movie felt a little long to get through, but I was interested enough to see how it ended. So I give it a solid 5.

After long time of not leaving IMDb reviews, I am compelled as a public service to do so

I almost tuned out after the first excruciating minutes, but I stayed with the train wreck only to see it get worse.

I glimpsed at the IMDb reviews and was stunned to see a few glowing 20 star reviews from single entry accounts that can only be from the makers friends and family, creditors or the devil himself.

So my counter so you don't fall into the trap. The plot is a rehashed to the point of plagiarism, meet-cute, rom-col, opposites attract, road trip slip with even more stale comic elements. As Stanislavsky, Meisner and Hagen spin in their graves we are subjected to unconvincing, cardboard, unmotivated portrayals is a prissy NJ suburban bridesmaid (w a 49ers flag) who doesn't drive or fly forces to travel to a NC wedding(a 7 hour trip) with an effeminate former MD groomsman freshly single who follows his bliss as a nature photog (who we learn has stalker red flags).

There is no chemistry with tired hiking s like, mis-answered phone calls, potty humor and "shocking " sex talk.

The dialogue takes uninspired, amateurish, out-of-the hiccups that seems to stat and stop like jump cuts. Not sure if I can blame editing, acting, director but each line reading (dine as if day one of a table read ) is punctuated by a full stop while the next actor has to start their monotone, tears or unwarranted action think the opposite of HIs Girl Friend or It happened on night. Further review of IMDb shows an inexperienced cast the lead actress has a kewpie doll voice inappropriate for her age, but it could be she is playing a paper-thin stereotype of a female lead as if a source for an SNL parody. The lead male is too bland abs boring to even comment on

On the era of peak streaming how desperate is PRIME for content foe this low-budget stuff laden with plot holes. Can't give this any credit, at every turn I'm go smacked as the romance and comedy is cut short by "serious" character development it just a sad waste and the phony reviews are only a further crime. You ahod be embarrassed.

Not sure what's with these bad reviews, but they must have watch something other than this movie!

It's actually really good. It's funny. It kept me interested and entertained pretty much from beginning to end. It's up to par with any other light romantic comedy if you give it a chance. It's not from a billion dollar studio with million dollar mega stars, but these leads definitely have potential. Who knows, they could next! I'm looking forward to more of them for sure!!

Admittedly, some of the co stars may not be as experienced, doesn't mean bad, but it may be obvious to some. The production does not seem low budget, actors don't seem it either. All around it's definitely a good watch and very well done. Grab some popcorn and enjoy!

Who are convinced that everyone in movies should fit the stereotype outgoing actor type.

I for one felt that the lead actors "I don't care" attitude fit the story lone perfectly. Although it is no where near oscar type, most involved still did a great job and this was one of the better "low budget-B movies" I have seen in some time.

Ending was rushed... but still a solid 6.8.
