Reviews for Made of Honor
Top Critic[A] very very very tired and familiar love story.
05/05/08
Top CriticYou may wish that Made of Honor had given its stars something more of interest to occupy their time. And ours.
05/02/08
Top CriticThough he has the requisite charm for a romantic comedy, McDreamy has picked a pretty nightmarish project to showcase his talents.
05/02/08
Top CriticSomewhere in the shades of Hollywood, the ghost of Cary Grant is shaking his head.
05/02/08
Top CriticThis is silly stuff, made of cardboard, with one of those Gordian-knot plots that could easily be cut through by one person's simply being honest with another person for 30 whole seconds. There's not much more to say.
05/02/08
Top CriticDo yourself a favor: Send 'regrets' to this affair, and rent My Best Friend's Wedding again.
05/02/08
Top CriticThe romantic comedy Made of Honor adds tart satirical flavors to a cotton-candy formula without sabotaging the sugar rush.
05/02/08
Top CriticThere was a certain amount of suspense in the air at the screening of Made of Honor: Would Tom and Hannah realize they're perfect for each other at the altar, or would I burn down the theater first?
05/02/08
Top CriticThe cinematic equivalent of a cookie-cutter wedding, Made of Honor ultimately feels a little depressing. Shouldn't any major event, from getting married to making a movie, inspire some hint of passion and creativity?
05/02/08
Top CriticAn unabashed piece of Hollywood fluff garnished with spry slapstick and appealing actors.
05/02/08
Top CriticDempsey and Monaghan -- and the rest of the cast, for that matter -- give it their all, but it just isn't enough to lift this formulaic nonsense out of the stew of mediocrity in which it merely simmers from start to finish.
05/02/08
Top CriticPatrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan make an agreeable pair in this above-average comedy, another go-round for the reliable premise of longtime pals awakening to each other romantically.
05/02/08
Top CriticMade of Honor is a retread -- My Best Friend's Wedding with the genders reversed and the brains removed. Chick flicks this calculated should come with enough Scorpion Bowls to numb the pain.
05/02/08
Top CriticCertainly ain't nothing to query about the tired premise, whose cinematic block we've been around and around and around since Garbo first talked.
05/02/08
Top CriticEven its clichés -- including a dashing rescue on horseback -- are trotted out with bland indifference.
05/01/08
Top CriticDoes anyone ever demand a refund for a romantic comedy that looks awfully familiar? Let's hope not, or the folks behind Made of Honor will have to do some serious reimbursement.
05/01/08
Top CriticMade of Honor is the kind of formulaic fare -- there's even that turn-the-car-around-and-get-me-back-to-the-church moment -- that depends on the wit of the script and the spark of its stars. In those departments, the film is just middling.
05/01/08
Top CriticCertain formula-driven romantic comedies reach a point where the audience realizes it won't be much fun watching the main character get his way. Nor will it be much fun watching him get his comeuppance. This is not where you want your audience.
05/01/08
Top CriticAt its best, a romantic comedy celebrates one of humanity's greatest yearnings: to give and to find the love of a lifetime. At its worst (and this is where Made of Honor comes in), it can leave you with a bad taste, not just in your mouth but in your soul
