Made of Honour
May. 25th, 2008 10:36 pmElaine and I saw Made of Honour this evening. It features unconvincing accents, caber tossing and more. I definitely enjoyed it, although I gather that the reviews haven't been entirely possitive...
(Disclaimer - I never claimed to be a good judge of rom coms. I tend to like all but the reallyawful ones... I obviously spent too much time watching Cary Grant films on BBC2 when I was growing up...)
It's also got three bridesmaids striding into a room to meet the 'Maid' Tom for the first time, with the soundtrack suddently shifting to Battle Without Honor or Humanity.
I may have laughed a bit too much at that point, although the bridesmaids weren't Yakuza, and definitely didn't include Lucy Liu or Chiaki Kuriyama...
