I watched Love Wedding Repeat as part of a little binge of romantic comedy watching so I can’t help but compare it to others. There are a few cliche situations here: The couple who connect solidly but who are separated by small events that they feel are beyond their control, but which could have been easily prevented; and a woman about to get married but who has a guy she slept with a few weeks earlier threatening to ruin her marriage. She didn’t quite convince me she loved the guy she was marrying, though the guy trying to steal her is a total loser. There are a few other things I could easily have done without as well. The irritating man who wore a kilt for no reason (since he was not Scottish), and who spent a lot of his time explaining in detail how it chafed his privates, while digging at it with a hand. Didn’t seem funny enough to overcome the gag reflex. The voiceover also irritated me. Voiceovers seem overused in movies, and I wonder if they are sometimes utilized to cover holes in scripts that better writing would cure. Finally, they went straight to director’s cut mode by having more than one ending with a “what if?” attitude. I am not sure both endings added together equaled one really good ending. But I did watch the entire movie and found it entertaining in places. I found myself wishing I cared more about the characters. Not a wholehearted recommendation but it tries. And you may appreciate it more than I did.
