Movie Info
Jake (Dylan Walsh) and Betsy (Molly Ringwald) are a young couple looking to tie the knot. Content with an understated, intimate wedding, Jake and Betsy's plans go out the window when Betsy's working-class folks, Eddie (Alan Alda) and Lola (Madeline Kahn), feel compelled to go over the top after they meet Harry and Nancy, Jake's high-class parents. In need of financial help, Eddie enlists a shady in-law (Joe Pesci) for assistance, which only exacerbates matters.

This movie is pretty good, it's a typical wedding story with some good comedy, but it could have been a lot funnier, and I wanted to see more of Ringwald and less of all the minor characters. I enjoyed it anyway.

I have to admit, this one has not aged well. Being a mad Molly Ringwald fan, this is a movie I have seen many times over the years, though not for a good five or six years. The main problem this has is there is not enough of Molly in it, even though she's the title character. There are some good supporting characters, including Ally Sheedy and Catherine O'hara, but there's a few I could happily have seen less of. I really didn't like the Stevie character a lot. It is mainly a nice little wedding story with a dysfunctional family and in laws thrown in. Nothing that hasn't been done before. Probably won't win any new fans, but might be enjoyed as a nostalgia piece (though even the clothes are pretty damn ugly here and it's a worry that Betsy hacking up that wedding dress actually improved it!).

A fun wedding mess which all comes together.
