Clotilde Chinnici Loud and Clear Reviews It soon becomes underwhelming and struggles to remain funny and relevant as the plot of the film goes on. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Tedious comedy about a bunch of self-centered people grinding through sitcom-level misunderstandings at a fancy Florida resort. Rated: D+ Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Within a very uneven script, there are some enjoyably sparky tensions between the large ensemble of characters, although director Erik White struggles to navigate the whiplash shifts between broad slapstick and over-cooked emotion. Rated: 2/5 Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Aside from some lovely beachfront scenery, this woefully predictable romantic comedy about a destination wedding gone off the rails is a checklist of cliches. Sep 29, 2023 Full Review Monique Jones Common Sense Media An illogical romcom [with lots of product placement. Rated: 1/5 Sep 29, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Vvv D Painfully unfunny, Ashanti better stick to performing at the these small county fairs Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/03/24 Full Review Nae N This movie absolutely pissed me off. Definitely not worth watching!!!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/26/24 Full Review Paula G I did NOT even want to rate a star! I rather watch ads/comercials for that length of time! Literally, wanted to throw my remote at the screen, to make it stop! Director, and acting, worst ever. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Yuki P Absolutely horrible. Literally one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review Avernelle C DONT DO IT. It just kept getting worse! This movie pissed me off. It looked like a tolerable late night movie, with some quality known actors but idk everything was bad about it. amateur acting, amateur script. The Marie character and Marshall (alleged best friend) Is the downfall of the movie, what bride would tolerate that? So unrealistic. I was just waiting on Ashanti to beat her a**. Marshall need his a** beat too. I was trying not to take this movie seriously but it’s a tough watch to get through… I think it was just a sponsorship movie cause they do market some top brands in the movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review BARRY O This move was unbearable, no way in the world would a couple getting married put up with the moronic behavior of a guest. Sorry can't even describe the stupidity of this tubi level film. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
