Stupid, stupid, stupid


Love, Wedding, Marriage (2011)

This romantic comedy from director Dermot Mulroney stars Mandy Moore, Kellan Lutz, Jane Seymour and James Brolin. Shortly after getting married and starting her job as a marriage counsellor a young woman's parents separate.

Given the genre and star of this film you could well say that there are two potential strikes against this film before you even start watching it and you would not really be wrong. It is hard to find the protagonist likeable as she is self centred and seems to have no regard for anything other than what she wants while the plot is fairly contrived, reaching the usual happy ending with little thought to how that reflects on the previous set up. There was some potential in the set up of this film but sadly it misses the mark and wastes the more experienced supporting cast.

2/5
