I'm in an almost hallucinatory state as I write this. Is it remotely possible that the five existing favorable reviews (as of 5/15/16) were based on a different version of "Wedding Palace" than the one I just saw? For in the bit of surrealism I watched the 'good' character arriving in L.A. to get married, Na Young, was a well proportioned but abnormally, repeat abnormally short person. In Seoul however, where the the man Jason first laid eyes on her, and where he spent face-to-face time with her on a date, she was shown to be a normal sized woman. Figuratively as well as literally this bit of poetic license is unbelievable and should come with the warning: The character Na Young is filmed sitting on 3 pre-cell phone era Manhattan directories.

I thought this movie was a hoot. I watched it one Saturday afternoon on Amazon Prime. I had never heard of it but read the description and the rating was OK; so I gave it a try. It has become one of my favorite movies. It is a romantic comedy that you never see coming. I like movies with a twist and the director/producer pull it off. I had never heard of most of the actors in this film but they were all excellent. Margaret Cho is in this but her character plays a small part and not really that funny. Don't get me wrong; her part and acting are not bad. It just not a large part of the movie. But all in all a Great Film.The acting and cinematography were both great. Two thumbs up!

While I like complex, intricate thrillers and deep thinking movies as well as the next gal, lately I find a shortage of light and really funny romantic comedies. Many of the things listed as comedies have people dying, facing serious illnesses, or other tragic events. This is just gosh-darn funny! Margaret Cho and Bobby Lee are hilarious and the plot is cute. If you are in the mood for light fare, this is for you.By the way, although it takes place in the Korean community, it is in English and whatever few places people speak Korean, the subtitles are easy to read, even for an old chick like me. Enjoy!

I saw Christine Yoo's film on the big screen and loved it! The comedic timing, writing, acting and directing makes the film a memorable addition to the film world. I definitely recommend Wedding Palace to anyone with a funny bone. Watching this film, I felt lost in it's story, in a good way. Typically, movies are easy to figure out within the first ten minutes but, Wedding Palace kept me wanting more and watching. If you liked Big Fat Greek Wedding then, you'll definitely love Wedding Palace. Bobby Lee and Brian Tee are amazingly hilarious in the film and the cast meets them all the way. It's been a pleasure to have watched a great film. I look forward to seeing the amount of success it will garner.
