Mon mariage surprise

Not sure why it's NR- not rated, but it Should be PG-13. There is a lot of talk about sex and making of a clay penis. There's one scene where it's obvious that they slept together. There are several uses of bad language: S word B word A word. I'm not sure why this rating system requires a certain amount of characters/words so I'll just fill it up now with my opinion. I have liked the blonde lead actress and other things so I was very disappointed to see her in this sketchy and inappropriate movie. I don't know why they feel the need to use bad language and sexual innuendos and conversations. It certainly couldn't have made the movie worse by leaving those out.

This film has to be the worst film I have ever ever seen. It goes of into so many story lines and characters.

You know how they say if you're writing a story, you need a beginning, a middle & an ending... well this has that at least... it doesn't have much binding them together though. Predictable as could be, but in a "what made you decide that?" way. The characters got where they needed to be but with no light bulb, epiphany moments. No one stood out as an exceptional character, not even the witty sidekick (I'm not even sure who that was meant to be) & not one storyline was evolved or felt complete, other than the obvious ending. It's like the writer couldn't pick one avenue so took them all, it was a messy viewing with no investment/connection to the characters at all.

This is a terrible movie. I only watched it because Nicole Sullivan was listed first and after seeing her play quirky sidekicks in Scrubs and Cougartown, I thought it would be interesting to see her ina leading role. But she's not the lead and the movie otherwise makes no sense. And the ending is absurd.

It took awhile to get going, but once it did my wife & I enjoyed it. There were some serious personal issues the main character had to deal with and there was some truth in how it was handled. It had a good mix of ups, downs and laughs as well. I felt that the film turned the corner with the introduction of the therapist character. She played a great part, bringing both levity and some serious introspection advice. As the main character starts out somewhat ok, then does a serious crash and burn, but at the end finds her true self and heals old and new wounds, and emerges as her own woman, strong enough to rise above the hardships that have held her back since her childhood. Throw in a nice slow percolating romance and a happy ending for good measure. I recommend it for you romcom fans, but you've got to hang in there for a bit until it gets up some steam. I think the cast, writers and production staff deserve to be proud of a nice indy film. Thanks for a good date night.
