    It could be better, but isn't so bad. Anyway nothing you must watch

    There's so many movies out there, that are better then this. That's true. But, I watched more movies that are mutch worse.

    The most disappointing thing was, the non sparkling moments between the bride and groom.

    I know, that Miranda is a very professional actress. So it wasn't really obvious. But, other couples in this movie show us, what's should be between them.

    I don't know why they doesn't change the acter for the groom. Sometimes there's no chemistry between people. And here was it clearly to see.

    The jokes wasn't always funny and the writing wasn't so good. The movie shouldn't be produced like this.

    Sometimes are small things bad for a movie. And when this small mistakes get too much... And no acter is there to overplayed that, then it's going downward. Sadly to say, it could have been better and it's nothing you had to watch.

    Netflix should stop giving away plot points

    My wife, the Rom Com fan of the family, rates this a seven. I turned the movie on before she could see that Netflix spoils one of the main surprises of the early part of the film in the recap of the movie when you queue it up. They could just say, "but things get complicated when the father of the groom shows up", but instead they give the whole thing away.

    It was a pleasant plot turn for my wife because she didn't know it was coming. There's a lesson here that Netflix and Prime and others just don't seem to understand. Plot twists don't work if you tell us about them ahead of time.

    We liked the characters, the setting, and it was an easy watch on a Sunday evening.

    Even for rom com lovers this is terrible

    When you watch a rom com you can nearly expect what's going to happen, this is no different. However the plot is utter ridiculous even by rom com standards. Most of the actors have no chemistry and the production is choppy to say the least. Brooke Shields isnt bad, Rachael Harris (Lucifer) has some good lines, Wilson Cruz (Star Trek Discovery) has some good lines too. Miranda Cosgrove and Sean Teale (the bride and groom in the movie) have zero chemistry. Im not even sure why Chad Michael Murray's character Will was even necessary for this movie. The best part of the whole film is the beautiful scenery. Most of the film is utter cringeworthy stuff. Save yourself 90 mins and watch something else.

    What were people expecting?

    Many reviewers complain that this movie was silly and not as good as others of the genre.

    While I do agree, that Netflix is not exactly guaranteed awesomeness all the time.. what were you expecting? When you open a can of ravioli, are you then sad it didn't taste like a gourmet meal? Check your expectations.

    I knew what I was gonna get, when I started watching this movie. It was your standard rom-com, with little to remember it by ten years from now. Just some movie that I once watched. But guess what? It entertained me, while I was watching it. And Brooke Shields was playing a cute character.

    So just know, that it is not going to be Love Actually and you'll be fine.

    Just a bit of fun..

    Yes this movie will not win any Oscars I'll be remembered as a cinema classic in 100 years time however, for a bit of light and easy tongue-in cheek fun what do you want for 90 minutes?... I love the fact that the two main love interests looked their age but pretty good for it lol and weren't plastic surgery nightmares...Easy to follow plot, lovely scenery and a fun soundtrack..... Put your feet up and just enjoy for a bit and then you can forget about it the next day., not all movies have to be Oscar winners to be enjoyable. Sometimes they need to be a bit silly with no guilt. The world is serious enough to not take a chill pill occasionally.
