Synopsis
License to Wed follows newly engaged Ben Murphy (John Krasinski) and his fiancée, Sadie Jones (Mandy Moore), in their quest to live happily ever after. The problem is that Sadie’s family church, St. Augustine’s, is run by Reverend Frank (Robin Williams), who won’t bless Ben and Sadie’s union until they pass his patented, “foolproof” marriage-prep course. Consisting of outrageous classes, outlandish homework assignments and some outright invasion of privacy, Reverend Frank’s rigorous curriculum puts Ben and Sadie’s relationship to the test. Forget happily ever after—do they even have what it takes to make it to the altar?
Critics' reviews
- "The outtakes that accompany the end credits suggest that making the movie was a blast; it's a shame the same can't be said for watching it."
- "Krasinski knows how to play off Williams, but it's disillusioning to see him here, because he seems too smart for this film."
- "A pastiche of tortured slapstick, groan-inducing dialogue and a lethal dose of treacle"
- "Rev. Robin Williams goes from mildly comic to downright creepy."
- "The fact that 'License to Wed' isn't as unbearable as its trailers make it look doesn't mean it's good. It's not."
