REVIEW
Haven’t we done this before? Sure we have but like a basic chocolate bar, there are certain familiar elements of certain movies that can be mixed up, packaged differently and presented as new even though, at the core, it is really the same movie, the same piece of cinematic candy as before and healthy or not, it goes down nice and sweet. So, yes, ultimately, this is a reverse Pretty Woman meets My Best Friend’s Wedding and, heck, it even stars the “best friend” of that aforementioned film. Kat (Debra Messing) has to attend her sister’s wedding in London where her loathsome ex is the best man. Not wanting to show up alone but suffering from chronic single-ness, Kat hires escort Nick (Dermot Mulroney) to play the part of The Hot New Guy in order to show everyone that she has moved on and gotten over the jerk who dumped her. Once in London, the predictably wacky family and friends soon emerge, inspiring typical romantic comedy hi-jinx and a wall-to-wall pop soundtrack. There is an undeniable sweet joy and interest in watching fabulously beautiful and successful people act stupidly and the relentlessly pleasant Wedding Date does not disappoint, remaining as engaging as a nearly empty bag of M&Ms: who can resist it, no matter how unhealthy to body and, in this case, mind it is.
