Review of The Big Wedding (2013) by Leon B — 19 Oct 2013

Review:

I really didn't find this movie that funny or even slightly interesting. Everybody seems to be jumping on the band-wagon with these Rom-Com's lately, but this one was pretty terrible. It's hurts to see Robert De Niro prancing around like an blithering idiot. The writing was quite bad and there isn't anything in the movie that keeps it entertaining or watchable. It does get slightly amusing when Robin Williams is introduced, but he's only in the movie for a couple of scenes. The plot does get a bit out of hand when everyone starts confessing to there wrong doings, but by that time I just wanted the movie to finish. Terribly Disappointing!

Round-Up:

All of the big names in this movie couldn't save it from being a flop. Judging by the money that it lost, I'm not the only one that found this unamusing. The whole messed up family thing who gathers for a wedding, has been played out, and the only way that this type of movie is interesting is when the characters are interesting, which they definitely are not in this case. Is some ways, it's just a typical Diane Keaton movie which is full of unfunny wit and a ridiculous storyline. The director should have let Robin Williams loose.

Budget: $35million.

Worldwide Gross: $22million (What a loss!).

I recommend this movie to people who are into there films which are based around a couple getting married with a dysfunctional family preparing the wedding. 2/10.
