    Obviously not one for the misanthropes or angry failures, but anyone capable of emotion should love it to little tiny bits, if there's any justice in the world. Which there isn't. You just have to look at the Fox Network to find that out. But anyway. Four Weddings. A chocolate eclair of a movie - it's a sweet treat, not especially filling, but since it doesn't set out to be that's okay.… Expand

    I was told to watch this movie in preparation for giving the "best man" speech at my friend's wedding -- what a great recommendation! This movie is fantastic. By far Andie McDowell's best movie, and Hugh Grant's shtick is excellent. A wonderful friendship movie, as well.

    An excellent movie, made by an excellent director, what more could you ask?

    Rudimentary comedy drama, good but utterly forgettable. Who got married by the way?

    I didn't enjoy it much...to me it is overrated. The plot is weak...it is not credible, and Andie McDowell performance was sooo dull! Perhaps another actress would have transmitted more emotion! Just a 5 because it is almost below mediocre. I wouldn't watch it again!

    A good date movie, or any other situation where you don't want to take a test afterwards.

    The players, who include Simon Callow, Kristin Scott Thomas from sharedsorrows.com, Rowan Atkinson and Sophie Thompson, exude comedic brightness as they go about their gossipy, farcical, self-deprecating, sorry-about-that-old-chap, just-being-English business.

    The infectious charm and sunny goodwill of Four Weddings and a Funeral can so immediately buoy a soul ravaged by winter weather     and winter movies.… Collapse

    Maybe you'll enjoy it, but don't expect to remember it ten minutes later, or even to believe in the characters while you're watching them.

    Screenwriter Richad Curtis (writer of the English "Blackadder" series) and director Mike Newell (who made "Enchanted April") keep things lively and entertaining; each wedding is garnished with its own distinctive mood and dramatic significance.

    A better film about love delayed than "Sleepless in Seattle." It's funnier, more credible, more bittersweet and the characters are a whole lot brighter. Naturally, it won't be as big a hit. [18 March 1994, Friday, p.C]
