Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times In the moments where she finally becomes angry, Heigl's pugnacious qualities serve her well; her rage is pure, cleansing and righteous in defense of her life. Jul 30, 2015 Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times One of the many irritants in this trite, well-intentioned lecture on tolerance: The audience is always several moves ahead of the script. Jul 30, 2015 Full Review Jordan Hoffman Guardian As a movie it is a complete misfire. The story, performances and editing choices range from predictable to risible. Rated: 2/5 Jul 30, 2015 Full Review Mae Abdulbaki Movies with Mae A film that isn't afraid of making its plot realistic and sympathetic, it thankfully shies away from having stereotypical characters. A strong drama that you won't be disappointed in seeing. Rated: 3.5/5 May 2, 2019 Full Review Mae Abdulbaki Punch Drunk Critics Jenny's Wedding is heartfelt and sincere in its execution. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 14, 2018 Full Review Jason Best Movie Talk Writer-director Mary Agnes Donoghue's heart is clearly in the right place... but Jenny's relationship with Kitty is so thinly sketched that it's the stumbling emotional journeys taken by the other members of her family that prove more engaging. Rated: 2/5 May 17, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Roger L A nice and warm comedy. Very good acting, especially from Grace Gummer (Anne). Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/27/23 Full Review Rosana B Um filme extremamente necessário de passar na "Sessão da tarde" entre duas programações tradicionais, um filme extremamente emocional, realisticamente doloroso, profundo, toca em várias feridas familiares, uma trilha sonora para embalar nossas lágrimas de tristeza anti o preconceito e alegria diante do desfecho, tudo muito perfeito, e magicamente produzido... Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review steve d It might not be perfect but its heart is in the right place. Well acted and really sweet. I was surprised how much I liked it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Can you even classify this movie as a lesbian movie? The answer is no. The acting was predictable and the writing is chalk full of lesbian clichés. The chemistry between Katherine Heigl and Alexis Bledel is nonexistent. The message of this movie is one of the few lesbian tropes but very poorly executed. There are plenty of other worthwhile lesbian movies to watch instead of this one. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I think it is a relevant family drama. I liked the conflict between the characters. Katherine Heigl is one of my favorite actresses. I think those who gave it a bad review are wrong. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Was this movie written by an 11 year old lesbian or a 50 year old straight man? As a member of the community, I found the whole thing cringeworthy and insulting. It's as though someone wrote a list of what they thought were probably gay issues and how they imagined people would react to someone coming out without any real knowledge. The whole thing is full of clichés, the highlight of which being the main protagonists father asking which role she plays in the bedroom, followed by Katherine heigl yelling "kitty! My father wants to know which one of us straps on in the bedroom" at a funeral. Jesús flipping Christ. Watching this movie was more painful than coming out to my own parents who DONT LIKE GAY PEOPLE Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
