7/10
had its moment but felt flat on the climax and ending
24 July 1999
I personally quite enjoy the MatchMaker; I find it cute, interesting jokes and funny characters would emerge and make me laugh, and the movie well had my attention for 2/3 of the movie. Then it got a bit confusing to me;eg. I couldn't quite understand why and what's going on in the party that the senator attended the first night he's in Ireland. Then, I felt like the movie should wrap itself up quickly after the death of the match makers but instead it kept going for quite away. I also didn't find the fighting scenes between the brothers in the bar funny at all. But I do like the Kennedy marriage joke. It totally caught me by surprise. Having said that, I think over all it is not a bad movie to see, at least it's bearable to watch as video and this movie for sure will serve as an good entertainment on a night when you have noting better to do. Before I wrap up I just want to say that I think Janeane Garofalo has loads of Charms in this movie, so as most of the cast in this movies-they do have this " real" people appeal.
