Reviews
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
moviematcher I don't understand why movies try to portray characters of a certain religion when they don't know anything about the religion. I saw the sign of the cross made with the left hand, heard that the church is wrong in teaching that marital intercourse should not be enjoyed (what?!? the Church doesn't teach that at all!), and a supposed Catholic conservative couple get married outside the Church. It takes minimal knowledge to know these and yet they didn't bother to figure it out. It was a cheesy, brainless movie otherwise. If you are looking for a predictable movie that doesn't require your full attention, then this could be what you are seeking.
someguy2013 When I first saw this on TV, I thought it would be just another bland chick flick. I missed part of it, so I ended up renting it later. This is actually an excellent film-a moving drama about a family. Yes, there is some decent comedy too. The plot revolves around three sisters coming home for their other sister's wedding. The sisters all have different personalities and lifestyles- each one being an archetype/stereotype(I think). The family is this film is Italian and Catholic, so that colored the film. I'm not Italian, so I didn't really relate much to that aspect. I did appreciate the Catholicism in the film since I myself am Catholic. I admired Danni and her fiancée for remaining true to their faith by waiting for marriage to make love. That is a hard thing to do, especially in this over-sexed culture. Her three sisters don't make it any easier for her. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying she was perfect. They are all flawed but interesting characters in their own ways. I'm not sure why Danni thought she was ugly compared to her other sisters. I thought she was the most beautiful one of all(on the inside and the outside)! There were a couple of "Catholic" things in the movie that seemed strange or just wrong to me. I've never heard of a "bed blessing" before. Is that some old Italian Catholic thing? I like most of what the mother said about sex, but she is wrong to buy into the canard that the Church forbids or frowns upon sexual pleasure(a common misconception). The Catholic Church teaches that sexual pleasure is a good thing if it is gained in the proper moral, marital context- the exact situation that Danni's mom was discussing. Maybe the Church didn't always do a good job teaching that in the past, or maybe their opponents have just been good at spreading misinformation and half truths. I don't want to dwell on that one scene. The movie is generally quite good. Yes, this is mostly a chick flick, but it is a magnificent one. That means a lot coming from a man!
letrptjohn I rented three DVDs the other night and saw "Kiss the Bride" sitting on the shelf with plenty of available copies. I grabbed one because it was there. I thought it would be a funny wedding movie my wife would like to see. I put off watching it until I had seen the other two "great works of art" I had rented."Kiss the Bride" is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is perfection. Anyone that has ever had a Mom or a Dad, sister, brother, or came from a "family" will find themselves somewhere in this movie. The cast is outstanding. The "well-known" and the "unknown" together. Vanessa Parise should be, or will be, a very powerful voice in the film industry. I hope she has the same budget for her next film. Lack of funds makes creativity the only means to a great film. She is very creative. Don't give any more money. She doesn't need it. There isn't one wasted moment in the entire movie. It's great, start to finish.
Paco Rodriguez (magicninjaix) To be quite honest, this was one of the worst movies that I have ever seen in my ENTIRE life. The only reason that I picked up the movie was because it had Sean Patrick Flanery (Boondock Saints) in it and I was curious to see his role in a such a film.First of all, the movie was slower than hell. It seemed like the movie had no plot and all the scenes were ten minutes longer than they needed to be; some needed not be present at all. Secondly, it was like they fired the screenwriter and had a 12 year old kid finish the dialogue--truly uninspired. Thirdly, I had to fight falling asleep after the first twenty minutes (@ 7:00 in the evening). The only thing i could really say good about the film is Flanery though he played a small role in the film, acted very well. He was the only one who gave a consistent effort to not suck ass and i wish i could hug him for it.STAY AWAY FROM THIS FILM!!!!
