Review of She's the One

I didn't really know anything about this going in. That includes the fact that Burns had directed or done a script. He's pretty good, I'd give another one of his a chance. The plot is interesting and develops nicely throughout. This has quite fast pace, and at no point does it really seem to slow down, without being overwhelming in speed. The acting is marvelous, everyone hands in a solid performance. Dialog is clever and well-delivered. All of the writing is rather well-done, the story, the characters, etc. The parts are well-cast, they are all credible. This is very funny, and it doesn't particularly try too hard at getting laughs. Almost all of the humor lies in the snappy lines and exchanges. No one in this feels flat or overly perfect, they are all flawed in some way, and thus much easier to relate to. This is a nice, not too cutesy or predictable romantic comedy, with a little more of an attitude, without completely ceasing to fall into that genre. The language is relatively frequent, and definitely moderate to strong. Sexuality is mainly hinted at or mentioned, not seen. I recommend this to fans of those involved in making it. 7/10
