"The movie is warm-hearted in the way a movie can be when it knows its people inside (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" | ||||

"It's a buoyant comedy with more warmth and generosity of spirit than anything else in theaters right now." | ||||
"Moviegoers love a wedding-gone-berserk story almost as much as they love a good yarn about eccentric family members. This movie serves up both" | ||||
"Predictable and dull" |
