Review of Muriel's Wedding (1994) by Adam P — 18 Dec 2009
This is billed as a hysterical comedy when in actuality it is more of a drama. Muriel's plight and dreams ring true, but the sequence of events is a little disjointed. She learns her own worth and sleeps with an incredible hotty and we all jump up and cheer.
It plays in the typical odd style of most Australian films which is an aesthetic I never really got into. It was fun to see a young (and much heavier) Toni Collette knowing full well the wide and fanciful career she would soon embark on.
One of my favorite actresses who is literally as versatile as Meryl Streep.
