I wanted to give this movie a slightly higher rating, but I just couldn't do it.
Too much poor dialogue, at around the 1hr 20 min mark, one of the brides says to her soon to be Sister and Law and the other main Actor something like: 'If you guys F - up again today, I just bought a knife. And it's shiny and new.' So threating violence on her wedding day?! Or maybe it's a joke but still so not funny, just awkward timing and delivery.
I am close to the end of the movie and so far there is just nothing that great about this movie. I feel like the writing is really lacking. I miss the romantic movies of the 80's / 90's that seemed to have that real feeling of the character's connecting. The actors do an OK job and it is cool to see Bryan Brown in a supporting role but again the characters just seem to have so little real chemistry.
So basically the bad: not very good writing, doesn't feel authentic, kind of flat, I don't really care much about the characters, the leading man is often portrayed as weak, ie: can't swim far even though he is in very good shape and scared of heights. Why would you choose to make your leading male character like that!? It doesn't help the movie. And the story just moves along kind of weakly. And so on.. quite bland.
But there is some good here: the movie is still watchable if you don't expect too much. It has a lot of nice scenery and the camera work is well done. And the actors are somewhat decent, I mostly blame the writing. So if you can watch this movie for free, go for it! It just makes me miss those 80's/ 90's/ 2000 movies that had a lot more heart and way better stories and dialogue.
