Amazon.com:
Patrick Dempsey makes his full transition to romantic-comedy stardom in Made of Honor, flashing those winning dimples and twinkly baby blues to full fetching effect. The camera truly loves him, and his considerable affable charm calls to mind early Hugh Grant, winsome even in utter confusion. Dempsey plays Tom, a nice guy but a serial dater with a girlfriend in every zip code of New York; Michelle Monaghan is Hannah, Tom's BFF since college, who's decided she wants marriage and family. When she becomes unexpectedly engaged to Colin (Journeyman's Kevin McKidd, rather McDreamy himself), Tom realizes what the viewer's known all along--that Hannah is in fact his dream woman. It's When Harry Met Sally... meets My Best Friend's Wedding--but thankfully, Dempsey's Tom is far more sympathetic than Julia Roberts' snide schemer. The plot isn't exactly full of surprises, but the cast--and their amazing chemistry--are so winning that the film makes for the perfect date movie. Not only are all three leads charming in their own way, but the rich cinematography manages to make both Manhattan and the Scottish countryside look like glorious edens, one urban, one windswept. Monaghan is a revelation, quietly lovely as a young Carla Bruni, but with a flinty gumption that makes her all the more appealing. The supporting cast is rich, too, especially Sydney Pollack as Tom's serially marrying dad. (At his dad's fifth--or is it sixth?--wedding, Tom's new arm-candy "stepmom" gets tipsy and overly affectionate with guests as her new husband looks on fondly: "Ah... drunk as the night I first met her.") But at the core of the film are its big heart, and the connection between Tom and Hannah, deep and wide whether they end up just best friends or more. And the delight for viewers is knowing they'll be just as glowy either way.-- A.T. Hurley

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I've actually seen worse ...
Made of Honor is your typical bland, predictable, thoroughly contrived romantic comedy. The only reason I'm not giving it one star is that the production values were excellent, the shots of Scotland were gorgeous, and, believe it or not, there are even worse romantic comedies out there. (Tiptoes immediately comes to mind.)

The basic problem with this film was not that it was predictable and formulaic (all romantic comedies are predictable and formulaic), but that every single person involved with this film was bored to tears. The actors were bored, the writers were bored, the producers were bored, the editors were bored, the grips were bored ... even the gofers were bored. And it showed. The jokes were lame, the chemistry non-existent, the lines well... "don't marry him", "I've always loved you", "these are glow-in-the-dark thunder beads." Need I say more?

If you are laid up with the flu and just need to kill a couple of hours, Made of Honor will probably do the trick. The good part is that you won't remember a thing afterwards.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Movie
The product was in excellent shape when it arrrived. I am more than pleases with the entire transaction.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Sweet with a Healthy Serving of Raunch
Very few annoyingly cheesy moments clutter this sweet story of love found right under one's nose. This is romantic comedy so I didn't expect much more than entertainment and the basic romantic comedy plot recipe. And this film delivered those.

Stereotypical bad boy Tom (Dempsey) plays the field, with rules like "no back to back encounters", and "once a week only" with a growing long list of women. Seems like he's slept with nearly all the eligible females in New York. But he has a soft spot for his best friend Hannah, and a standing weekly Sunday date, where he is able to relax the rules and truly enjoy the company of a woman who is "what you see is what you get."

Hannah leaves the country and Tom fills his Sundays with women who don't measure up to Hannah and he realizes that his feeling for Hannah have grown into something deeper. When she returns with an upcoming whirlwind wedding plan and asks Tom to be her Maid of Honor the plot thickens.

Sensitivity warnings: Plenty of raunchy comments pepper the film, a few epitaphs, a couple of awkward scenes, several half-dressed women or women spilling out of tight clothing flit across the screen. The shower entertainment ends up being a "love" toy demonstrator. So, be warned. I don't think a savvy kid could watch it without some serious parental discomfort and some splaining you might not want to do. This isn't one or two eye-covering scenes and the rest is a-okay, the adult humor or themes are pervasive. I will probably watch it again, sometimes I just am in the mood for romantic comedy, but it would be better with a bit less sex.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - all in good fun
A light romantic comedy that spends time to actually work out the plot kinks and to make one guess at the ending. The chemistry between the main characters is palopable and Patrivk Demsey is simply delightful. What's more is that the film exceeds expectations and manages to be quite fun.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Ordered a month ago..still no dvd.
