Review of Muriel's Wedding (1994) by Patc. — 20 Mar 2006
A twisted version of My Big Fat Greek Wedding where petty motivations and an overabundance of amorality prompt both laughs and pity. Splendid portrayal by Colette of an ugly duckling who, in the process of transforming into a swan, finds her manic dysfunctional darkness and dishonesty resisting conversion to her new self-image.
An exceptionally intelligent film brimming with authenticity, appealing both to the chick flick set and those who find that genre superficial.
