GazerRise Fantastic!

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

paulclaassen There's a reason why I don't like American comedies: they're American! They're cheesy and predictable. The chemistry between Dempsey and Monaghan made it worth the watch. As the film progressed, though, it got more and more unreasonable and rather silly. The filmmakers expected the audience to prefer Tom (Dempsey) and Hannah (Monaghan) to get together, but why should I? Why would I prefer her to marry casanova Tom? He's been her best friend for 10 years with no interest whatsoever of getting involved with her. Why should I root for him now? Especially now that she's found the perfect man in Colin (McKidd). He has the looks, the charm, the title, the money and the donkey kong dick - why shouldn't I prefer him over Tom. No reason is given why he is not good enough for her. He is faithful, loving and caring. The ending was so utterly stupid and predictably American. Tom's final speech was...well, yawn! You honestly expect me to fall for this ending???

ComedyFan2010 This movie follows a well known formula: a guy and girl are friends, she meets someone to marry, he realizes that he loves her and tries to get her back.A lot of movies in this genre uses such formulas. What can make them good movies are original elements added to it that make those movies more unique.Made of Honor just seems to follow formulas and fail with anything else. It seems that whoever was writing for it was being very lazy. There is already the title, wth is Made of Honor? Is made somehow a male equivalent of maid? No. So is Tom "made of honor"? How is that, the guy wants to ruin a wedding in sneaky ways, this has nothing to do with honor. I really don't expect characters in such movies to behave honorably of course, but the whole world play is useless.And I really fail to see why Hannah fell that strongly for Colin. Not that he is bad looking or a bad guy,but apparently they were so different that it makes it hard for me to get why she was so madly in love that she agreed to get married pretty much right away.Just as confusing are the reasons for why she didn't want to be with him. So he hunts? I understand that not everyone would date a hunter, I personally wouldn't. But what did she think was on her plate before she found out that Colin killed it? A cauliflower? It just makes no sense for me, if I HAD to eat meat I would rather choose the deer that lived in the wild and was killed by a hunter than a cow that lived a tortured life in a factory farm and had her throat sliced in a slaughter house. Some will hate my review for that comment, but I just had to point out how this part of the movie made absolutely no sense to someone who cares for animals as the main character was supposed to.And what the hell is it about Tom getting on a horse to get to the wedding faster? Are horses really that much faster than cars? And while we are rooting for Tom and Hannah to get together as we are used to in such movies (while we also know that they definitely will), it is hard to be very happy for them at the wedding, because Colin really has done nothing for us to hate him and be happy that his wedding got ruined in such a cruel way.I also have trouble understanding the reason for the character played by Kevin Sussman, the weird looking basketball guy. Comedy doesn't have to always be kind. Like I didn't worry much about the fat friend on a diet jokes, but this is because her friends really did like her and she ended up getting into her size 8 dress at the end. The basketball guy was just treated badly for no reason, which makes no sense after high school, got nothing positive and was completely useless to the story.What is good about this movie and in a way saves it are the beautiful scenery, acting skills of the actors and their great chemistry. The kiss of Hannah and Tom during that bar hopping night was absolutely wonderful. Definitely one of the best kisses in romantic comedies. This definitely is a little pearl (or glow in the dark thunder bead?) of this movie. So I will give it a 6/10. Because even though there was so much wrong with it, I still didn't hate it thanks to the actors and some funny jokes.

lisafordeay OK I got this movie all because I have a thing for Patrick Dempsey. Yes his got charisma,charms,drop dead gorgeous his got the whole package and of course it was on sale in some DVD store so I said to hell with it I'm buying it but in this film he was a total bastard. Im sorry for the swearing but he was. He plays Tom Bailey Jr a serial womanizer who is in love with his best friend of 10 years Hannah(Michelle Monaghen)who goes to Scotland and falls for a Scotsman named Colin(another Grey's Anatomy star Kevin Mckidd) and she is engaged to him. Tom is horrified to discover this and what happens well he decides to be the Maid of honor(yeah a woman's job) all because he wants to win her heart.Some scenes were hilarious like the part where he rides that horse and falls into the church and Colin punched him in the face and the part where he gets spray on his eyes. I actually liked the chemistry between Dempsey and Monaghen although I rathered his chemistry with Amy Adams in Enchanted as it was more special and more passionate. Anyway if you wanna watch a pure rip off of My Best friends wedding only in male form then be my guest but if you are only watching because of Patrick Dempsey then check it out. Not his best film (poor him he should star in more musicals if you saw Enchanted then you will understand why or more family movies as he is a dad in real life and he is more suitable in them kind of films as well as Rom Com's as I like to call him the king of romance. Its an OK movie but wouldn't be the best I have seen. My advice watch Enchanted instead his more better in that film.5/10

RResende These films are all about its own formula. Date movies, or romantic comedies, however you want to call them.I never really searched for the origin of the formula as it's been presented to us for the last, at least, 20 years. Its roots come certainly way before that, and probably you can find elsewhere when this started. This trend i'm talking about makes things happen linearly and it goes like: boy and girl meet. they fall in love, they are happy. Something happens and they are separated and broken; some misunderstanding, some falling out. In the end they meet, after almost loosing each other forever, and reaffirm their love, almost always in a public venue (stadium, crowded street, church...). This is the basic skeleton, and from it, usually the producers try to pretend to change somethings, so they can say they are doing something new, while delivering exactly what has been done thousands of times before and which is in most cases, what most people want.In recent years, we had a few number of films which, although obeying more or less to the formula, playing really interesting games on it (Love Actually and Across the Universe come to mind). This was great, because we started having a small platform for experimentation built around such a square genre, where audiences wouldn't admit many surprises. So, what chocks in this film, is not that it is fully formulaic, but that it doesn't even try to disguise it. It's not the skeleton of date movies filled with some invented flesh; it IS the skeleton, plain simple, like if it was a kind of educational video shown in "date films school" to teach students the rudiments of the job.There is one single deviation to the scheme, which could actually be very interesting: the boy and girl do Not fall in love until the very end. Although we know from the beginning that they are meant to be, they don't, they live their love as a pure friendship until she finds a lover (how she meets him is so ridiculous that they don't even show the scene). This could really be nice and sweet, but the period of time since they meet until she gets engaged is compressed to some 10 minutes of film.They make fun of scots. Heavily. it's usually a national sport for formerly colonies to make fun of their major colonizers. Oddly enough, although the English do get mocked by the Americans, it's the irish, the scots and the french(!) that get the more aggressive bits of mockery. that's strange. i suppose the English did their mind washing work well enough.My opinion: 1/5 http://www.7eyes.wordpress.com
