SHOTGUN WEDDING

Director: Jason Moore
Starring: Jennifer Lopez, Josh Duhamel, Jennifer Coolidge, Cheech Marin, Lenny Kravitz, Sonia Braga, D’Arcy Carden, Steve Coulter

Jennifer Lopez has made a few movies now that are wedding themed like The Wedding Planner and Marry Me. Her latest, Shotgun Wedding, is one of the worst in her career. The film opens at a tropical resort in the Philippines as Lopez’s character, Darcy, tries to remain calm during the night of her wedding rehearsal to fiancé, Tom, who happens to be a groomzilla. He’s played by Josh Duhamel. It’s a messy evening as the two mothers don’t get along, and Darcy’s father surprises everyone by inviting Darcy’s ex, Sean, to the wedding. Lenny Kravitz feels aptly cast as an ex to Jennifer Lopez. On her wedding day, Darcy proclaims that something doesn’t feel right. Frankly, the audience already knows this by how bad the film is. Just before they’re about to walk down the aisle, a group of pirates hijack the wedding. Darcy and Tom are left scrambling, while the guests are taken hostage in a pool. Streaming on Prime Video
