It's not surprising that My
Big Fat Greek Wedding grew
more popular over the course
of its theatrical release
(whereas most blockbusters
open big and then drop precipitously)--not
only does it have believable
situations and engaging characters,

My
Best Friend's Wedding (Special
Edition)
One
of the best romantic comedies
of the 1990s, My Best Friend's
Wedding not only gave Julia
Roberts a delightful vehicle
for her crowd-pleasing comeback,
but it further distinguished
itself by avoiding the conventional
plotting of the genre. Julia
plays a prominent Chicago
restaurant critic whose...
The
Wedding Planner
The
good news is, yes, Jennifer
Lopez can do comedy. In The
Wedding Planner Lopez is Mary,
a lovable woman who believes
"those who can't do,
teach. Those who can't wed,
plan!" Her slapstick
moments are lighthearted and
she is spot-on as the controlling,
compulsive-yet-sweet planner.
The bad news is...
The
Wedding Singer
You're
better off having been born
after, say, 1965, if you really
want to enjoy this corny romantic
comedy and its abundant references
to the MTV culture of the
mid-1980s--and even then the
odds are only 50-50 that you'll
have a shamelessly good time.
But a lot of people beat those
odds, because ...
Monsoon
Wedding (Subtitled)
The
date of an arranged wedding
coincides perfectly with monsoon
season and the two tempests
make for a very entertaining
romantic comedy. The groom-to-be
is a transplanted Indian living
in Texas, the bride-to-be
is still carrying on with
her ex-lover, who happens
to be married already and
the wedding planner is in
love with the housemaid. The
clash of Western ideas with
traditional Indian culture
provides plenty of both dramatic
fuel and comic fodder and
the gorgeous costumes and
energetic Bollywood musical
numbers cap off a really enoyable
film from director Mira Nair
(Salaam Bombay!).
