Marido por Acaso

I saw this while living back home in England a year ago and just noticed today it is going to be released in theatre in the US soon. Its a shame that England, Europe is used as a 'test' market for films before they are released here and when they flop there it delays the release here! This film wasn't worth what I paid. The formula for romantic comedies need to be resuscitated! Emma Lloyd, Uma Thurman's character, was OK, but Jeffery Dean Morgan outshone her, and that's not saying much.

I think the idea of the film seems decent and the content would be funny; but the characters weren't strong enough and the acting couldn't save it.

Utter drivel and not worth seeing. Accidentally or otherwise.

These days Hollywood is either going Kung Fu or Bollywood. This romantic comedy chooses the latter so here's another Holly Bolly hoo. Like it's predecessors The Guru, The Love Guru, Bride and Prejudice and even a wee bit of the Indian culture in Ghost World.

An outraged man Patrick Sullivan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) set himself out to teach the love counselor Dr. Emma Llyod (Uma Thurman) a lesson when she unknowingly influenced his fiancé to break up their wedding plans. But as you would have it, in the world of Hollywood romance they'd ultimately fall for each other despite the fact that the good doctor doesn't believe in the man of her dreams but the man of her reality and that she herself was about to be married. Colin Firth plays her beau but is lost in his wimpish, awkward world and it's nice to see the gorgeous and elegant Isabella Rosellini again with other veteran stars like Brookes Adams and Sam Shepard.

Morgan seems to be the guy who gets other people's girl in the end even in P.S. I Love You, I wonder what his third romantic comedy would be like. There's some elements of Down With Love but not enough to make it memorable.

You have to watch this movie with no expectations, no analytical mind and no preconceptions before you can enjoy the laughter and foolishness of being in love without reservations.

I watched this movie today on a DVD and was happily surprised.Its a typical Hollywood comedy with a boll y wood touch.The reason for which this movie title has so many Spoilers is probably because of the mix of cultures.And,people could'not accept it. Things I liked about the movie: *It was not predictable where you expect it to be(pardon the climax,its a Hollywood movie & sweet ending is in the rule book). *There were many hit and miss comedies in this movie but Ajay Naidu was as great as ever. *Jeffrey Dean Morgan & Thurman's characters were less motivated but realistic. *Finally the back ground score.........ooh it was awesome & perfectly synced with the situation(at least for me,it made my day completely light) actually when the end titles showed up for a moment I thought there was some problem in the audio of the DVD because of the "Swasame" song.

The movie is not as good as any signature Hollywood ROM-comes like, Proposal,Knocked up etc., but it was watchable & definitely funny.

The reviews for this movie had not been good, although reviews for romantic comedies are notoriously unreliable. RomComs are not high art, and while there is still an abundance of difference between a good RomCom and a bad one, they are light entertainment and benefit from being viewed as such.

Accidental Husband certainly had flaws, but was still a lot of fun. Jeffrey Dean Morgan is a funny bloke, Uma is Uma (always at least good), Colin Firth is assured as always. I was impressed with an exchange between Jeffrey and Colin's characters which was unusually realistic for this sort of movie.

Some commentators have expressed displeasure at the fate of Colin's character because they like the actor, but it is only a character.

The involvement of the Indian family was slightly curious, but enjoyable, and Ajay Naidu put in a solid performance as Deep.

If you are after a RomCom and you can cope with a bit of logical nonsense, you should find this an enjoyable diversion.

I am still watching this movie at the part when Richard lets her be and the church - fire by candle story and I was like omg who would think about that lol. No explanation to guests that was awesome. And on top of that her prince charming is a fireman so as he comes to rescue her i guess he realizes she is his.

I have to disagree with most of the reviewers that this is a good romantic movie.. Its unrealistic because you cannot think that you have a guy as understanding as Richard and a lady so down to earth like Emma. Rather most people would expect the rich guy to marry the rich girl and the fireman to marry the latina shop assistant.. Too bad I guess! I liked the fact that she chose Carl, he did set out to bring her down but thats cool coz it taught her the lesson she needed. He was everything she is not and sometimes that is what you need in life, Richard on the other hand was like a brother, kind , understanding and concerned also they were similar in characters, whereas Carl brought out another side of her which made her happy. Nobody is perfect right so is the movie but it has a nice story... It is about adults who have crossed paths and changed each others lives... Nothing wrong with that.

And I shall be going ahead to the rest of the movie 10 mins!
