great date movie

I saw this film at the Hollywood Film Festival recently and it was a lot of fun. It's a great date movie. In the film Rachael Leigh Cook is a jittery bride to be -- basically she's like a guy (only much cuter) who thinks about sex and buys all the time. She confides in her local priest only it's not her priest but the local carpenter and he falls in love with her and must stop her wedding. My date and I had a lot of fun watching this film and if you are a fan of Julia Stiles (Save the Last Dance, The Prince & I), Hilary Duff (Perfect Man) or Lindsey Lohan(Mean Girls) then you'll love this film!!! Take your boyfriend to see it and if you're a guy, trust me, take your girlfriend. I highly recommend it.

My first impressions were good but the movie loses sizzle half way through

Vanessa (Rachael Leigh Cook) is a beautiful young lady on the verge of marriage. With the ceremony only three days away, Vanessa is having some problems, however. Her rich, good-looking fiancé, Andre (Paul Hopkins), after sowing some wild oats in his twenties, decreed that the couple would not sleep together until after the ceremony, and Vanessa's hormones are raging. She ogles every handsome man she meets on the street and has wild daydreams about going to bed with strangers. That's why she stops at St. Andrews Catholic church and heads for the confessional, so that she can enlist the help of a priest in learning how to handle her impulses. But, what fun, a carpenter, Nick (Kevin Doughty) is inside the "box" making repairs when she comes to confess and she spills the beans to him, instead. Playing along as a young man of the cloth, Nick is struck by Vanessa's beauty and wit. That is why he agrees to meet with her later that evening, for coffee, to discuss the situation in more detail. Naturally, Nick falls for Vanessa and tries to break up the wedding plans. Can he succeed? This film starts off wonderfully, with humor and direction but soon loses sizzle. There are some fun scenes, such as the one where Nick is counseling Vanessa and her bridesmaids during a "girl talk" meeting or another where Nick decides to "mime" a message so that he won't violate confidentiality rules by speaking out of line. LOL. But, the plot wears thin after awhile and becomes pedestrian. Even so, Cook is lovely (as always) and funny, Doughty a stitch, and Hopkins one great "piece" of eye-candy. The costuming is especially wonderful, as are the sets, including Vanessa's knockout apartment and Andre's posh mansion. All in all, if you are a romcom fan, you will chuckle over this one, mostly, and adore the players. But, your overall satisfaction will just make it to the "fair" level by film's end.

Rachael Leigh Cook...I'm with you

They say nobody is perfect, but I'm starting to think Rachael Leigh Cook might be. She's had the bad luck of doing horrible things but she's also been blessed with parts in good movies; "My first wedding" stands in the middle. Directed by Laurent Firode and written by Joan Carr-Wiggin, this is your everyday romantic comedy but with an unusual theme in its story: a lust problem.

Vanessa (Leigh Cook) goes walking on the street and wants to have sex with every man she sees. This part is perfect for the young actress, whose looks are beyond sexy. Her gift for innocence also serves her very well here, as she confronts the 'holy' life of her character with the wild dreams she has every night.

So Vanessa is about to get married and she's trying to control her impulses because her fiancée Andre (Paul Hopkins) is very catholic and doesn't believe in sex before marriage. She enters a church to make a confession and Nick (Kenny Doughty), a carpenter working there, poses accidentally as a priest and listens to her problems. As he watches her walking away, he's stunned; so he offers more help with the troubles…Even when he's not a priest.

Longer into the film, when Nick says Vanessa is perfect it's impossible not to believe him. Rachael Leigh Cook is indeed perfect and she makes her character that way. However, the credit is not all Rachael's…The British Doughty is a gifted comedian and has the necessary charm for the role of Nick; a deceitful and winning ladies-man who has fallen in love.

Yes, we know how the story ends, but that's not a problem in almost every romantic comedy, because if you let yourself go (as I've said many times), things can work. One of this film's few problems is that it doesn't work even when you try to let go. The chemistry between the leads is believable, but maybe the situations they live take it too far.

This is not a problem when I watch any romantic comedy, but the little sense of reality and the distance the director seems to put from his characters are elements that don't end up helping the final result. Plus, some funny moments abuse of repetition and even when Doughty is funny, he can't do the same thing several times and still get a laugh.

"My first wedding" is a film you should see if you are a Rachael Leigh Cook fan. As I read somewhere, "she sizzles"; if you want to catch a romantic comedy where you can get carried away by what doesn't make sense and lies far from reality, get "13 going on 30" or "Love Actually".
