Un mariage exceptionnel

Normally a movie this bad doesn't deserve a review, but maybe I can save future people some time and tell you not to bother. Let's be honest, most romantic comedies aren't exactly realistic but they're still enjoyable and most of us have a little part inside that hopes we will have our own fairy tale someday. This. Was. Ridiculous. I still don't understand how the ending helped anyone, and I still don't understand what in the world the male lead could have seen in Libby. Skip this, unless you want to see an over-the-top ending that makes zero sense.

Forget the silly premise. This Movie ending is the most ridiculous and silly I have ever seen. Forget Hallmark is cheesy movie stuff. This is just downright totally stupid! Surprising since Alexa PanaVega this season on the Hallmark, was in the best movie I thought this new 2020 season...."Taking a shot at love"

Libby Boland (Alexa PenaVega) is a hard-working wedding planner starting up with her assistant Michelle. She meets Ben Reynolds (Shawn Roberts) at a wedding convention and sparks fly. He's a writer and he's promoting his first book, 'Wedding Day Do's and Don'ts'. To her horror, his book advocates for cheap unadorned weddings.

This is Hallmark doing a Hallmark movie. Of course, Libby is a wedding planner. The guy is so clueless that he doesn't get why she's mad. He's literally destroying her business and doesn't know why she's not head over heels over him. It would be so much better if he doesn't do the puppy dog face and go full antagonist. He comes off as dumb which his character is definitely not. It's not endearing to her and it's very frustrating. He needs to understand her point of view or else he comes off as a bad match. That's the crux of this movie. They need to be a good match but the movie does nothing other than they're relatively photogenic. She's no catch either in her superiority. Neither are appealing and they only match as infuriating characters. There is a way to do this but this movie has no clue getting there.

I had to watch this through several days. Save yourself going through it all for the most ridiculous ending ever.

Some weaker movies take me a few attempts to watch the whole thing, but I quit outright after about 20 mins of this. I can't stand people getting obsessed with big weddings - it's the whole marriage that matters, so why put yourselves under so much stress for just day one? Therefore I couldn't connect with the lead character at all and was more on the side of the frowned upon fella.
