I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The first must-see film of the year.
It's a fun movie. Scenarios are nice. Nice storyline with some drama about it.
Netflix lays some grand old turds, and this is one of them. Stinks to high heavens. Skip it and flush it. Turd brown
I feel that this film required a bit more editing and scenes cut. It's a fairly predictable story which gets going then seems to slow down just as you are getting into it. A bit more could have been done to keep the story going forward rather than the stop/start nature we have.
Like FatherThe downside to a honeymoon on a boat is that the sex usually involves a Roman shower.Luckily, the bride in this comedy is honeymooning with her estranged father.After workaholic Rachel (Kristen Bell) is jilted at the church she drowns her misery in a booze-fuelled night out with her deadbeat dad (Kelsey Grammer), who she hasn't seen in years. Under the influence of alcohol, she decides to take her honeymoon cruise. But instead of going alone she invites her parent.After some chopping waters, the pair soon bond over karaoke. Rachel even finds a new love interest (Seth Rogan).Distributed by Netflix, this debut film from Seth Rogan's wife, Lauren Miller, is a joyless family reunion void of laughs. When it's not moonlighting as a movie-of-the-week, it's serving as a paid advertisement for Royal Caribbean Cruises.Besides, the only cruise line that really caters to incestuous marriages is Carnival.
