The Big Wedding [Blu-ray]

Oh come on, it wasn't THAT bad
The reviews here are pretty funny, I think these people thought they were looking at the next big award winning comedy or something. It is just a grab some popcorn and relax for a couple hours type of movie. Nothing amazing, nothing terrible. Should it have been better with all the stars in the cast? Perhaps. But at least if you know this going in maybe you can enjoy it more and not be set up for failure like these other folks.

It had its funny, it had some heart tugs, it had some raunchy, and a few yawning moments. All in all it was a decent comedy and I did not think I wasted my time with it. It is a slow paced comedy, won't have you jumping out of your seat in laughter but you should smile throughout most of it.

If you need a lighthearted movie night flick and nothing else is jumping out at you, this will do.

Family dysfunction at its finest at 'The Big Wedding'
There isn't one specific comedy in the history of film that everyone can agree on as being a good (let along funny) film. With that being said, you can only expect so much when you hear about the release of another movie centering on a wedding, which happens to have some of the biggest names in Hollywood on its guest list. It's disturbing to see such harsh criticism for a film that was always going to have the majority of critics attacking it from the get-go - either because they aren't smart enough to see the humor in the situations of a purely over-the-top melodrama, or they're just a huge crank that can't appreciate absurdly hilarious family interactions. The goal of this genre of film is to make you laugh, clearly by any means necessary. But, for all of the critical writers out there that thrive on attacking a simple R-rated wedding comedy for the sake of being negative - well, I'm sorry, but you need to lighten up on the elitism and embrace the chaos. Please, do yourself a...

So much worse than I even feared
This movie was terrible-start to finish. I read some of the reviews and thought- "Oh, it's a romantic comedy, how bad could it be." Really, really, really bad! That's how bad. If you have a moral fiber in your being it will repulse you and if you don't it is just a really dumb movie. Such a waste of money and time.
