The Wedding Planner is a bit of fluff, but fluff can be entertaining taken in light doses.

Its manner is as light as wedding cake frosting and its lead performances are as poised as the bride and groom at the top of the cake.

Although Lopez projects her usual charisma here, McConaughey seems as out of place as Will Rogers playing Rhett Butler.
