La stagione dei matrimoni

Wedding Season is exactly what you expect.

From the premise and execution everything happens exactly as every other generic rom com.

That being said the performances and the chemistry between the two leads Suraj Sharma and Pallavi Sharda carry this movie from beginning to end.

Being of 1st generation Indian background I could relate to the struggles that the kids were having. It was funny to see how the parents were reacting. I wish my parents would have been this nice. It was tough but they have come around now.

We all knew that Ravi and Asha would get together at the end from their first meeting. What we did not know was the the trials and tribulations they would have to go through in order to make that happen.

Their pretend dating was similar to the story line in the 1st season of Bridgerton with Dapne and Simon.

Overall a good movie. I sometimes wonder those who don't like a show if they actually watch it to the very end.

This film is just pure fun: Silliness, tropes to warm the soul, lots of stereotypes (who doesn't love them), great music with just a touch of serious - an uplift on a dull day!

I was in the mood for a cheesy romantic movie and this did not disappoint. It was better than I expected. I know others are unhappy about the Indian cliches but I found them endearing.

It was interesting to see that the average US user rating was just 4.3. Given that Ron Howard and Brian Grazer were the executive producers, and Tom Dey directed, that's a serious diss to them!

Here's what this movie is. It has high production values, it has nuance and fine notes within a fairly predictable story. The actors were fresh, the acting was very good and it was an enjoyable 1.5 hours, rather than the typical 2.5-3 hour Indian movie. It was a modern Indian love story.

Most movies are predictable, but they can be fun to watch anyway. Worth a go!
