Why so much hype?
Good start, but then it gets ruined
Best movie ever!
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Romcoms are a tricky genre because there's always the question of plausibility but at the same time it should be entertaining and genuinely funny. And while "Wedding Daze" (aka Pleasure of Your Company) has its share of flaws, it's definitely a movie that made me laugh and swoon! The screenplay is very careless and tends to manipulate the situation in several instances, there are a lot of scenes that drives a home run. Jason Biggs was hilarious in this one. Isla Fisher was more charming in this movie than the high profile "Confessions of a Shopaholic". The supporting cast especially Jason's mom & dad were a riot.What makes this movie a cut above the rest of the romcoms is the fact that: (1) it doesn't try hard to be "logical" and it didn't stick with any known formula, in fact it threw all the rules out of the window... heck love is best when it's spontaneous and crazy! (2) it doesn't try to be charming. If this was marketed well, this could've been a hit! This is so much more fun than a lot of romcoms that have been coming out lately (ie The Back Up Plan, Leap Year, All About Steve, The Bounty Hunter, etc) 6.5/10
Another movie I saw on a 15 hour flight - only reason to consider was Jason Biggs who was quite funny in American Pie series. The premise (that of a impromptu proposal and acceptance leading to a series of fights resulting in the eventual wedding), though beaten to death can be golden in the hands of a good director. But this movie was a complete disappointment. Where was the story/screenplay? Jason Biggs plays a do-nothing loser (he is playing the same role over and over - Saving Silverman, Loser, Wedding Daze - all variations on a theme). Isla Fisher was nice in 'Confessions of a Shopaholic', and no doubt she looked hot (especially in lingerie) but that was about it. The families are shown as absurdly kooky. His parents are oversexed and her three parents are kooks in their own way - dad a convict-fugitive, step- dad a Jewish bore and mom a emotional shrew. Do not waste your time.
Run away from this thing. It just oscillates wildly between boredom and embarrassment, dancing on a hard to believe plot. The comedy is done (or it is attempted) only through gross exaggerations. The boyfriend is totally lame, the pretender turns out to be gay, the girlfriend dies of heart attack when she is proposed to, the father is a convict, the mother a horrible witch, etc. And Jason Biggs just navigates these troubled waters with a silly new yorkish look on his face, making passive sarcastic remarks like "oh, look, I am normal, everybody else is just ridiculous and funny!".The only good thing about this movie was cute Isla Fisher, although she too screamed a bit too much. Bottom line: avoid at all costs. I will forget it in a few minutes, tired and already missing my wasted two hours of precious time.
Finally! Something I don't more or less *hate* Jason Biggs in!! I was actually quite surprised at how funny this was. You never know what you're going to get when it comes to the "romantic comedy", and this is a breath of fresh air for the genre. Is the formula that new? Not really - but the off color humor, performances of the actors and actresses, and Michael Ian Black's writing more than make up for any flaws the movie might have. This is just the type of flick to see if you need a good laugh and don't mind your humor on the lowbrow side of things. If you're looking for a blockbuster, this movie won't be for you - but honestly, who needs anything that masterful when it comes to entertainment for entertainment's sake? Give it a watch...unless you've got no sense of humor, you'll at least get some good laughs out of it.
