Wedding Daze (2006)
6/10
Great idea but poor execution
27 February 2008
Jason Biggs (American Pie) stars as Anderson, a depressed guy who lost his girlfriend by proposing to her. Pushed by his friend, he asks a random waitress to marry him, which she says yes.

The idea of this romantic comedy is there. I like the idea of spontaneity but the film lacks humour.

Jason Biggs is funny in other films, as is Isla Fisher (Wedding crashers) but this film lacks effort and purpose. It's as if there's no point.

Following many conventions of the genre, the film uses physical humour and some really cheesy lines to portray comedy, which is a shame because from the beginning it appeared to be heading somewhere.

Its flat, its predictable and repetitive and overall, just boring and familiar.

I don't like films which follow patterns and so the ending is scant consolation for that as it is slightly different from other romantic comedies.

The acting is average; none of the cast seemed too bothered to put their true potential into the characters.

At the end of the day it is a light hearted film which is sweet in its own way. The humour isn't brilliant, like the acting but the idea and the ending are quite interesting.
