Tony (Joey McIntyre) and Tina (Mila Kunis) are a couple from Queens who have decided to take the big step and get married. However, while they have no qualms about matrimony, they're not so sure about their wedding -- Tina's mother (Priscilla Lopez), a widow, and Tony's dad (John Fiore), who split up with Tony's mother some time ago, used to be an item, and they've never gotten over their bitter breakup. As the two families try to put together a social event worthy of their children, the parents are constantly at one another's throat, and as the bride and groom deal with a priest who prefers to do the wedding his own way, a wedding singer who feels requests are beneath his dignity, a wildly eccentric photographer, a pack of brutally hung-over groomsmen, and some unhappy bridesmaids, Tony and Tina begin to wonder if their relationship can survive the wedding -- or if the antagonism of their parents is a sign of things to come. Tony 'n' Tina's Wedding premiered at the 2004 Tribeca Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
John Anderson, Newsday
Tony n' Tina's Wedding picks all the Queens-Long Island clichés, rolls them into a ball, and then throws what's probably more of a spare than a strike.
-
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
Plays out like a far too long (108 minutes) sketch featuring stereotypical characterizations and witless dialogue and situations.
-
Julia Wallace, Village Voice
The not-exactly-long-awaited movie version is here, trading in stereotypes just as ineptly as the original.
-
David Cornelius, DVDTalk.com
Paradiso mistakes noise for comedy and bossy attitudes for satire.
-
Rory L. Aronsky, Film Threat
This is unforced, gradually unhinged, always-entertaining hilarity involving one of the most unconventional wedding receptions ever to be put on film.
