Made of Honor (English audio. English subtitles)

As romantic comedies go, this is one of the more amusing that I have seen over the past year or so. Patrick Dempsey proves that he can handle a very different character to "McDreamy" (Doctor Jonathan Shepherd from "Gray's Anatomy") and Michelle Monaham is beautiful and charming as the heroine.The film begins with a student party, during which Tom, (Dempsey) a senior year student who has seduced half the female students at the University, meets a girl called Hannah in the most embarrassing circumstances imaginable when he accidentally gets into the wrong bed. Despite this dreadful introduction, they become best friends, in a completely platonic way.The story resumes ten years later, in New York. Although he has remained a serial womaniser who is astonishingly successful in charming every other girl he takes a fancy to into bed for relationships which are about sex and nothing else, Tom's friendship with Hannah has become part of the bedrock of both their lives but appears to have remained entirely platonic.The first hint that the relationship between Tom and Hannah might not be quite as platonic as they both think comes when he persuades her to come with him to his father's sixth wedding. At this point it becomes obvious where Tom gets his attitude to women: Tom Senior, a wealthy man in his sixties, is marrying a beautiful girl of 25 (e.g. about five years younger than his son.)During a series of silly events at the wedding, which I won't describe to avoid spoiling the story, the viewer realises that Tom junior and Hannah mean more to each other then they are prepared to admit even to themselves.Then Hannah has to go to Scotland for six weeks on business, and while there she is swept off her feet by Colin (Kevin McKidd), handsome heir to a family of dour highland aristocrats who are even richer than Tom's father. Returning to New York with Colin, Hannah tells Tom that she is getting married to Colin in a fortnight, in Scotland. And as he is her best friend, she wants him to be her "maid of honour".This comes just as Tom has finally realised that he is in love with Hannah, and presents him with a dilemma: does he support his best friend in her choice of life partner, or use the position to try to persuade her to marry him instead?Most people will find the shenanigans which follow to be highly amusing, but be aware that the film takes the mickey out of every cliche about Scotland from an American perspective in a way which patriotic Scots - or even other Brits - may find irritating.If you are not too put off by this, or by a large number of predictable stock Hollywood RomCom chiches, you will probably enjoy "Made of Honour" but it might not have much repeat entertainment value. Perhaps a film to rent, and watch once, rather than one to buy.

I liked the movie because, it’s a good feel film & it’s romantic

A feel good ROM com to see the beauty of Ilse of Skye.

Really good movie

Romantic film with the very watchable Patrick Dempsey! Characters were likeable and funny. All the way through the film you are hoping that they will get together .... no I'm not going to tell you what happened.I really enjoyed it and my husband who is not into romcom at all, sat through it and didn't moan as much as normal. That in my book is recommendation indeed!Get the girls together, get a box of chocs and a bottle of wine and watch this, you'll love it!

Good value for the money

GREAT FILM , FUNNY BUT HEART WARMING

i got this for my daughter and was forced to warch one night and to be honest its actually pretty funny , blueray quality good , film funny , not overally soppy , imagine that if film had been made with say adam sandler as the main character rather than patrick dempsey it may been bigger success but its a funny film , good for the family , good to watch with a girlfriend and worth a rewatch.overall a pretty good funny film.
