    Wedding Date is neither good art, good entertainment nor even good trash.

    Entertainment Weekly Lisa Schwarzbaum

    So many body parts from other engineered romantic comedies have been crudely harvested and stitched together in the making of this weird robotic lark that "Maid of Honor of Frankenstein" might be more useful a nickname.

    ReelViews James Berardinelli

    This is a charmless, lifeless affair that had me leaving the theater in a mood more appropriate to a funeral than a wedding.

    The Hollywood Reporter Sheri Linden

    Familiar but never overly broad, this well-cast, crowd-pleasing comedy benefits from a low-key emphasis on character over high jinks.

    Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert

    The curious case of two appealing performances surviving a bombardment of schlock.

Iffy for 15+

As stale as last week's wedding cake.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that this movie includes some strong material for a PG-13, including brief partial nudity, explicit sexual references (including prostitution, infidelity, a joke about an orgasm, the idea that "the best sex is make-up sex," and a drunken sexual encounter that is supposed to be romantic), smoking and a lot of drinking (characters get drunk and hung over).

  • Families can talk about whether it is true that people get the love life that they want. Why does it take courage to let someone love you?
