Shotgun Wedding

"The only thing wrong with Shotgun Wedding is that it isn’t any good. Aside from that, it’s a pleasant experience."

"Charming yet vapid..."

"Die Hard with refreshments."

"This is one wedding invitation you’d be well advised to decline."

"This is a slapdash effort on most every level..."

"Too violent for comedy fans and not thrilling enough for thrill seekers."

"Not even rom-com queen Jennifer Lopez can elevate it above aggressive mediocrity."

"No funnier than J. Lo’s other bridal movies, but much louder."

"There are some nice gags here, and smart twists from screenwriter Mark Hammer, and some funny supporting turns."

"Once the plot kicks in and the characters separate... Shotgun Wedding becomes much more entertaining..."

"This Wedding clearly wasn't meant to be a masterpiece, but even as mid-winter fluff it feels like a rush job."

"Crass and mechanical, but it has spark..."

"Shotgun Wedding is stupid fun, and to its credit, it embraces that."

"There is a serious theme under all the silliness..."

"There's enough to cut a good trailer, but precious little more."

"Too violent to be funny and too funny (in the odd, weird sense) to be fun."

"Shotgun Wedding highlights the danger of having a reasonably interesting concept without similar follow-through."

"Neither Moore’s direction nor Mark Hammer’s script lean enough into the absurdity of the situation..."

"A romcom revelation, this ain’t – but it’s an entertaining vehicle for the ever-charismatic Jennifer Lopez..."

"Mark Hammer’s script never wastes a gag..."

"Coolidge steals the movie as she always does: by blurting out surreal, nonsensical things at inappropriate moments."
