Best movie of this year hands down!

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It's not formulaic, it's actually interesting most of the time and it has a few nice jokes sprinkled around.The happy-ending is way too cheesy and actually ruins a lot of the movie, as, up to that point, it was mostly realistic. I mean, just one story of how a guy gave his little sister a toy when they were kids doesn't erase the fact that he's a jerk and, among other things, dumped Anna Kendrick over the phone. It's way too little for her to just "click" and chase him to the lake and shout out her eternal love for him across said lake. If they were to actually show Anna Kendrick's baby-poppa jump into water when she called him across the lake, it would have been _terrible_ (as is, it's merely bad). The happy ending for Lisa Kudrow felt much more real, while the happy ending for the Indian boy was also off.Another problem with the movie is that Anna Kendrick didn't do her job as well as one would expect. She's not nearly as lovably quirky as she can be. She's not pretty or hot, so, what we're left with is not all that interesting or likeable, thus it's hard to participate in her struggles. Quite frankly, you feel more connected to Amanda Crew, who, while being a jerk, is doing a good interpretation of "I'm hotter, yet this jerk choose her, but I'm gonna show her now".But, with it's several major and some more minor flaws, it's still good-enough, if you take into account other rom-coms.

Look, I love Anna, Lisa, and Craig (huge fan of The Office and Friends in fact), but this was unimpressive. It had been on my watchlist for awhile and I'm glad I didn't have to pay to watch this.It was decent up until Table 19 goes up to Nanny Jo's room to smoke after the mess these outsiders made of a wedding. After that, it went south and the protagonist ended up with the guy who dumped her originally, just cause she's pregnant with his baby. Earlier, it introduces a (very attractive) male interest named "Huck" who you think is her savior but turns out to be a completely irrelevant character with very brief screen time. If they changed the plot so that she ended up with him, that would make a significant difference.It's just about a girl who goes to a wedding, meets the Wal-Mart quality Breakfast Club and you know the rest.

With such an eclectic cast, I knew it would be interesting and hopefully funny. Not as funny as I had hoped, but it was quirky and sweet. I really enjoyed it.

I loved this movie. I loved the pacing, the predictable moments and the ones that made me look over at my husband with huge eyes and "no way" face. I loved the sensitivity that each actor gave to their complex characters. I loved the physical comedy as well as the subtle, well written one-liners. It makes me sad that people didn't like it mostly because it was a lovingly observed film from the back corner of a social occasion.
