... View MoreNow this movie gets a three because I like the main character (the dad) who also plays a major role on Boston Legal, so he's like-able. The movie was enjoyable on the basis of how lame it actually was. So I found myself laughing in the sentimental parts. It's very safe, and very conservative. I came across this movie on TV, and watched it because it was pathetic basically.The plot is that the dad's first daughter gets engaged. Then the second. He stresses out because they want to be married on the same day. Then, you guessed it, the THIRD. Mummy and Daddy walk in on daughter kissing tubby boyfriend, and they announce their love and the dad faints.Why they need to wed within weeks at the age of 18, I don't get. It's very old fashioned and idealistic. In reality their lives would be very boring. Basically it's dull and the puns are predictive and unoriginal. Would of been OK in the 1940's, but not today. If you are Amish, you will like it. If you are intelligent at all, you won't.
... View MoreA picture treasuring family values where 3 daughters become engaged at once and their parents face the trials and tribulations of their joint wedding ventures.The 2nd and 3rd daughters fall right into line with their beaus when wedding bells seem to ring for all.John Laroquette is perfect as the father. He tells the story to the audience. Karen Valentine is obviously much older from her days as the idealistic teacher in Room 222. However, whoever did her make-up deserves the worst make-up job performance of the year. Valentine looks worn out and really haggard. This is supposed to be a time of joy for her. While she acts the part, she really looks bad here.The last part of the film really becomes silly with all the problems that can go wrong at a wedding. The wedding cake is destroyed and a rabbi has to substitute for an ailing priest at the ceremony. What the picture has going for it is the strong family value theme. We don't find the usual wedding jitters by the prospective brides and grooms, but simply lots of love and understanding. That's heart-warming by itself.
... View MoreThis film is a lot of fun! Okay, it isn't any 10 star flick, but I just caught it on the Hallmark Channel and have to say that I really liked it! I believe that you really can't make a close-to-home, realistic wedding flick because EVERYONE has a different type of wedding/experience. These girls choose the "traditional" expensive outdoor catered wedding with all the bells and whistles...The film is a bit like Father of the Bride times three (and I'm sure took a beating from critics for that), but the writer manages still to focus on a doting father giving the girls the wedding they deserve and have dreamed of! I really liked how all of the girls had the (unrealistic, yes) spirit of sharing and giving and they DID NOT become self-centered bridezillas come the day of the event.The movie does a great of showing the importance of family especially making a wedding a FAMILY event. I enjoyed this! I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a fun, comedic movie about a wedding. Any girl stressed about being a bride should totally see this movie...and relax a bit!
... View MoreI really enjoyed this film because it was done very well! I like the comedic touch portrayed by John Laroquette, whom I usually am not that crazy about! He was really great in this film though and the story is summarized mainly by him about his daughters all coming home at the same time, for different reasons, but it turns out that they are really there, perhaps unbeknownst to them, for the same reason! Wedding bells are ringing! I am glad to see Karen Valentine again for the first time in a long time! Valentine and Laroquette really showed great chemistry together too! Even though this film is a little far-fetched, I think it was done very tastefully, and it was very entertaining to say the least! Besides, strange things are known to happen in life! This is a very happy family that is portrayed in the film! If you get a chance, see this good, not too sweet or sour, family film! 8 out of 10!
