Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Sharp, insightful, and warm comedy. Manages relationship barbs without being snarky and cruel. Some of it is a little dated, but everything dates. The Ann Meara/Harry Guardino storyline pushes it too much and becomes annoying. But there is so much genuine affection and goodness in bride and groom Michael Brandon / Bonnie Bedelia, and parents of the groom Bea Arthur / Richard Cadtellano it makes up for the less likable characters. Nice to see VERY early Diane Keaton showing her early acting chops. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/17/19 Full Review Audience Member The best comedy movie ever made! With the best movie song ever sung: For All We Know! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member has a great cast and script! this movie really and truly is funny! It's a bit dated but that's the charm with this movie! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
