Featured reviews
It was surprisingly way more good than expected, even it follow the classic path of every rom com, i enjoyed the way the character were interacting with each other. The direction was well made and the vision about love and finding " the one" was a touching point of you about love expectation vs. real love ... simply give it a shot.
well made.
My wife and I watched this at home on DVD from our public library. It was filmed in several southern California locations.
Maybe we should call it "10 weddings but no funerals", it reminded me of the British movie. Maya Erskine is Alice, Jack Quaid is Ben, her long-time friend from college. They each have several weddings to attend so they pair up to each have a plus one at each wedding.
It is clear that Alice wants more with Ben, she is pragmatic, but Ben is an idealist, "how do you know when you meet the perfect mate?" Of course that simply doesn't work so the story arc is for Ben to figure it all out.
"Cooter's out. Cooter's out. COOTER'S OUT!!" has to be the funniest scene, at daybreak in the cemetery.
The actors are both cute, Quaid inherited good genes from both his mom, Meg Ryan, and his dad, Dennis Quaid. I would not watch it again for two reasons. First there are a handful of really annoying characters, the most annoying is Alice's mom. The very annoying characters broke the flow of the story each time.
Second, as we have come to expect from modern movies, it is filled with quite a bit of filthy language and overt sexual discussions, to the point that it takes away from the story. For the most part unnecessary and is often used as a substitute for smart writing.

Yes, this is your typical rom-com but this one has a little more, its funny, predictable and entertaining to watch. We all know the outcome but the journey getting their makes this film notable.
Even though the plot is very predictable, the film just makes you smile. The two characters have a great connection, and above all their journey to the next step is very believable. It is a film that looks real, and people can easily connect to. I enjoyed watching it.
This is a great summer movie! Funny, romantic, and fresh in its approach to a genre that's making a comeback. It's drawn many comparisons to When Harry Met Sally, as friendship is a key part of the romance (which makes the build that much more tension filled!). Maya Erskine and Jack Quaid have great chemistry and Erskine is especially funny.
