After languishing unseen for years, Laurent Firode's long-delayed comedy is finally getting its day in the sun. Too bad there's such a heavy shadow hanging over it.

With a title like My First Wedding, viewers shouldn't expect anything other than a date movie that relies more on likable characters than originality.

1/4

The narrative impetus of the film is stupidity, as Laurent Firode's romantic comedy only manages to progress from plot point A to B thanks to the witlessness of its unbelievably naive protagonists.

Even with the utterly gorgeous Cooke, this film stinks.

It's hard to imagine how even Billy Wilder could have made this premise palatable.

A run-of-the mill farce with an undeniably sexist undertone.
