It's been a little while since we've had a romantic comedy, or so it seems. Either way this movie looked rather amusing from the previews but that's the films downfall like so many others released this month. Yet again we see everything in the previews and what makes it worse is that this type of film tends to be rather cliched.
The cast itself does a fine job though and they try to hold the film together but the sister in the film is beyond annoying. The best friend is hysterical though and kind of makes up for that. Marsden has always annoyed me in everything and his cynical nature irked me for a while but then he kind of grew on me.
The plot is fairly simple. A woman gets paid (I guess) to be a brides amid. She has done 25 weddings and we see the next 2. Marsden plays a reporter doing an article. See, our main character is in love with her boss but her boss falls for her sister who is lying about everything just so she can net this man.
I'm sure from there you can figure out exactly where this plot is going to go. With only a few funny surprises along the way we get a run of the mill romantic comedy. It doesn't do anything too offensive but besides a cute little scene near the end the film just doesn't do anything to stick out.
Entertainment value - ** / 5
Movie - **/ 5
