Four and a half stars, really — 40 weeks ago
I did enjoy this! It’s the story of Julianne, who has been ‘best friends’ with Michael for nine years, and suddenly realises she’s in love with him…. when she’s invited to his wedding. His fiancĂ©e is bright, enthusiastic, and also very much in love with Michael, but Julianne determines to do all she can to break them up.
It’s a bit surreal at times, with a table full of guests breaking into song at one point, Julianne’s gay boss flying to her rescue after a frantic phone call, and even a spoof Bond-style car chase. But it was exactly what I needed for an evening’s relaxation with my husband. Decidedly a ‘girly’ film, but he liked it too. Julia Roberts stars, and is believable, if a little over the top at times.
