My wife picked this film based on the trailer and the fact she knows I like Lucy Punch. If you haven't seen the first three Vexed or the first six Doc Martins, you're missing something!
Anyway, this film started like some others, but quickly veered into its own lane. While some was a bit stupid and perhaps even predictable, major portions were laugh-out-loud funny and completely unexpected. The competing wedding complete with Titanic entrance and fancy port-o-let, the dancing sequence, Raif's greeting of the river boat tourists, the Mother of the Bride's speech...but most of all, Lucy and Raif's video tour of the private rooms at the "Hall". That last one will stay with us for quite a while!
Everyone was well cast and did a superb job. Much better than it had a right to be, I guess. But I do love Lucy!
