L'année des mariages

I think a lot of these reviews are very harsh. I went into this movie expecting a light & fun rom com and that is exactly what I got. I think the leads do a great job of highlighting each other. Also if you listen to any review that includes the words "chick movie"...yikes.

No this is not ... although? It has been quite a while since I saw Four Weddings and a Funeral. Still even if there are similarities (I really don't recall if you can pin anything to those two movies), the British one wins the competition every single time.

That being said, the movie on hand here is quite fun - and if you let it, it will entertain you. And if you are a fan of Modern Family, you will be a fan of the female main character anyway - well probably and very likely that is. She plays an interesting character - but do not watch this if you think there is something deeper to be found - no pun intended.

This film tells the story of a new couple who goes to seven weddings in a year.

The film is just so sweet and fun! There is just every element in it to make it work. There is a pretty girl, beautiful clothes, upbeat music, dancing, parties, and the obligatory gay best friend. The weddings adds to the main leads' romance, rather than distract, which is quite a feat. I enjoyed watching this very much.

This is a perfect example of why I started watching K-Drama! It is by far so much more romantic, more fun, more humorous, more interesting, better scripting, the whole 9 yards better. This short 1 1/2 hr movie was so boring I found myself daydreaming (not about weddings!) a couple of times as they went through the story of each wedding (the leading lady kept getting wedding invitations in the mail and of course she wasn't married yet). Such a worn out theme to begin with, then of course Netflix has to always have the mixed couple, the gay wedding, etc, - not saying anything wrong with it, but it is so predictable for Netflix. Of course you know what the ending is going to be all along - the whole thing is just boring. I very rarely give a negative review, but just can't help it this time.

Don't really undrstand the low ratings. It's a romcom people, not Wuthering Heights. I thought it was cute, funny and light. Exactly what I was looking for.
