1.5/4
Marriage is hell. Matrimony is rife with mistrust, misdeeds, and misconceptions. But you know what's worse? Being single. We get it. Go to Full Review
Jon Frosch The Hollywood Reporter 11/12/2010
Helena From the Wedding is written, directed, and played with such verve and deep, unshowy feeling that its insights on these tried-and-true themes come through with rare and startling clarity. Go to Full Review
Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times 11/12/2010
3.5/5
Among its achievements is the kind of comfortable, shaded acting we expect from seasoned professionals and a script (by the director, Joseph Infantolino) that almost scarily captures the cadences of whining white privilege. Go to Full Review

08/21/2014 ok indie cdrama about relationships and love See more 12/13/2013 Not much of a plot, but in the end, it made me feel good. Relationships are not always what they appear. See more 07/28/2013 A boring epilogue style format with the misconstrued assumption that you would care about either couple. 27/7/2013 See more 01/30/2012 Netflix sleeve descriptions are often misleading, but this beginning deserves reposting: "In this coming-of-middle-age" story.... See more 12/17/2011 Boring movie about boring people. See more 12/08/2011 I wanted my artsy fartsy intellect to really "like" this movie... But I didn't... Perhaps I just wasn't deep enough... i found it bland and overly depressing... I did not care about any of the characters except for maybe Alice... See more Read all reviews
