With an all-star cast led by Robert De Niro, Katherine Heigl, Diane Keaton, Amanda Seyfried, Topher Grace, with Susan Sarandon and Robin Williams, "The Big Wedding" is an uproarious romantic comedy about a charmingly modern family trying to survive a weekend wedding celebration that has the potential to become a full blown family fiasco. To the amusement of their adult children and friends, long divorced couple Don and Ellie Griffin (De Niro and Keaton) are once again forced to play the happy couple for the sake of their adopted son's wedding after his ultra conservative biological mother unexpectedly decides to fly halfway across the world to attend. With all of the wedding guests looking on, the Griffins are hilariously forced to confront their past, present and future - and hopefully avoid killing each other in the process.
This movie is just as formula as the ads made it seem. All the actors played the same characters that they seem to in all of their movies. Barely laughed throughout. Honestly, I don't think I laughed at all. The movie is pretty much just kind of there.
I wouldn't recommend anyone wasting their time with this. The movie isn't awful but not really worth the time at all. Watch the ad and you could have easily wrote the same review.
