The premise is stomach-turning cutesy as well as maudlin, the characters are cartoons, and the climax is unbelievable and strained to a fare-thee-well.

Reviews for Kiss the Bride
1 - 6 (sorted by date; Australian critics are listed first)
A light, formulaic romantic comedy that plays with genre conventions just enough to make its cotton-candy charms feel almost fresh.
05/30/08
At first, the supremely silly vibe offers a fair amount of fun. But then Cox switches gears and gets serious, which is a huge mistake.
05/30/08
Fans of the genre, Ms. Spelling (who are likely the same people) and perhaps TV’s Will & Grace (who are likely the same people) will be inclined to walk this bride down the aisle.
04/24/08
Plot contrivances and erratic character choices reduce would could have been a frothy comedy into a confused, unsatisfying jumble that no amount of beefcake can rescue.
04/18/08
A breakout movie could be made from Lieberman's premise, but Cox and his TV-caliber cast simply aren't cut out for the challenge.
