"Fall-down funny moments."

Christopher Null
76/100
"It’s funny as hell -- not in a rolling-in-the-aisles kind of way -- but in the sly smile, knowing glance, growling chuckle kind of way."
Apollo Guide
Dan Jardine
2.5/4
"An uneasy mix of well-realized humor and unrealized sadness."

David N. Butterworth
B-
"A romantic comedy that is both mawkish and subversive."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
6/10
"A romantic comedy significantly darker, more realistic and more intelligent than Hollywood examples of the same genre."

Dragan Antulov
"A rare kind of film that will send you back to the streets feeling giddy."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
3/4
"
My Best Friend's Wedding
has a bit of an edge and enough intelligence to keep it from drowning in the kind of mawkish sentimentality that often makes this sort of movie hard-to-swallow."

James Berardinelli
3/4

Montreal Film Journal
Kevin N. Laforest
3.5/4
"
My Best Friend's Wedding
is effective -- some might say manipulative -- at winning you over to its side."

Marty Mapes

Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
3.5/4
"The Roberts audiences knew and loved is back--not only has the smile returned, but also the glow, the joy of performance."

Michael Dequina
3.5/4
"One of the things that makes
My Best Friend's Wedding
such a terrific romantic comedy is that it refuses to play it safe."
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
10/10
"Everett is very charming."
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
C+
"For those of us not so enthralled with Ms. Roberts, you'll have to endure the movie, but will be mildly entertained with good, old music and some stellar comedy provided almost entirely by Rupert Everett."
