Happy ever afters
Reckon I've seen more screwball comedies than most so my antenna was out for this Irish version! Yet another genre movie made by people with little passion nor understanding. Two weddings are in the same hotel. Sounds good but it fails. This film goes nowhere, has dull cinematography, is unfunny, badly acted, uneven, and just bad. Like a lot of Irish 'comedies' there is too much storytelling and not enough focusing on situation or character. The best screwball comedies have class. Happy ever afters has none of this. Also, you should want the original couple to get back together. Not here though. It's rubbish stuff made by 'respectable' filmmakers with little talent. Really pathetic.
