    I hate myself for renting this.

    One for when your girlfriend wants to zone out for a while... at least that's how I wound up watching it, and when I did I was surprised by a snappy script with a couple of strong running jokes as well as the chemistry between Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan. With two fring...( read more)e stars performing well in their attempt to "break out," Tommy from Trainspotting (Kevin McKidd) and enough alpha male moments to keep even me interested in a forumlaic romantic comedy (read: "chick flick"), I might even say that I kind of enjoyed it. The story starts out strong, and though it falls into cliché after cliché, it at least takes a joyful and somewhat self-deprecating approach to its resolution. Worth watching, but you didn't hear it from me...

    Cutesy romantic comedy? Yes. Good story? Not so much.
    Boy meets girl, Girl tells off boy, Boy and girl become best friends, Boy falls in love with girl, Girl falls in love with someone else...
    I think I saw this movie once. It was called My Best Friend's Wedding. Some Hollywood ...( read more)hot shot said " Hey, let's do that Julia Robert's movie, only make her character a man and have them end up together." Ignore the smoke and mirrors, another great Hollywood hit. Come on...get some new ideas already!
    Patrick Dempsey was dreamy as always. His eyes light up the whole room when he smiles. Michelle Monaghan is very pretty and a good actress. I loved her in Gone Baby Gone. They did work well together, I will give them that much. It was cute to see Kadeem Hardison and Busy Phillips. Dwayne Wayne and Audrey from Dawson's Creek always add so much depth to any script. :)
    If you find yourself bored or PMSing and in need of a little romance, Made Of Honor would be an OK choice. Just don't expect anything more then a few warm fuzzies, and don't be totally shocked when your 6 year old daughter can probably tell you how this one is going to end. It's packed with that predictable quality.

    A typical "I have seen it all before movie". Yep its a rom-com that is the same as any other rom-com that i have seen.

    Helt okej film att slötitta på, men jag har redan glömt bort nästan hela filmen.

Claudia Puig, USA Today

Though he has the requisite charm for a romantic comedy, McDreamy has picked a pretty nightmarish project to showcase his talents. full review

May 2, 2008
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

A movie that's often enjoyable but never as good as the ones it's stealing from. full review

May 2, 2008
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

This 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 ... full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post

There 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? full review

May 2, 2008
Ty Burr, Boston Globe

Made 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. full review

May 1, 2008
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

Even its clichés -- including a dashing rescue on horseback -- are trotted out with bland indifference. full review

May 1, 2008
Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

Does 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. full review

May 1, 2008
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

Made 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 ... full review

    Nice movie! Just fun to watch, but nothing more than that. Predictable of course, as many comedies. Patrick was cute as always. :)
