	Father of the Bride (1991) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		For any father who loves his daughter, this movie simply can't be watched without feeling a tearing at the heart and a lump in the throat.
		This is a tough time for many fathers, and mothers and daughters very often don't understand their erratic, paranoid and irrational behaviour.
		Father of The Bride explores this phenomenon with what was for me an amazingly accurate depiction of the emotional turmoil that goes on in the head of a man who cherishes his daughter's love and feels threatened and reduntant when another man enters the picture.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Father of the Bride \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		But with "Father of the Bride," director Charles Shyer and his co-writing/producing partner Nancy Meyers have managed to bring the story of the 1950 film into the '90s, remain faithful to the source material and still make an up-to-date, warm comedy.
		But there's inspired casting in Steve Martin as the father, giving the material a comic edge and demonstrating his maturity as an actor as he confronts the age-old problem of letting go when his daughter announces she is going to be married.
		"Father of the Bride" is very much a family film, with only a single vulgar remark accounting for the PG rating.

		"Father of the Bride" is the Vincente Minnelli comedy that introduced us to the angst of hosting your daughter's wedding reception.
		While buckets upon buckets of movies show the mother daughter relationship, this movie shows the ties that bind a father and daughter, and the difficulty and emotion that ensues when that relationship changes forever.
		That's because her first real-life wedding (to Nicky Hilton) was tied in to the publicity for "Father of the Bride", in which she plays the engaged daughter of Spencer Tracy and Joan Bennett.

	DVD Review:Father Of The Bride
		The most enjoyable moments of the movie are the nicely done moments of drama during the film, which don't feel forced or sappy.
		For a movie like this that was a fairly big hit at the box office(it made 89.325 million at the box office during its run at theaters), I would think it would deserve a new, anamorphic transfer.
		Disney does really nice work on their current hits, but "Father Of The Bride" is part of a group of discs that I sat down to watch that included other older Disney/Miramax films such as Four Rooms and Beautiful Girls, and I was definitely not impressed with those either.

		Father of the Bride is the hilarious re-make of the 1950's MGM film that starred Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor.

		"Father of the Bride Part II" is as bright and shiny as a Christmas tree ornament and will likely be cause for holiday season cheer in many a family feeling overdosed on brutality and depravity on the screen.
		Unsurprisingly, Martin is adept at conveying the angst of middle-age male crisis, but the film doesn't develop his anxiety much beyond George high-tailing it to the gym--he's not really out of shape, for that matter--and the barbershop for a dye job.
		Indeed, it is this transaction that blemishes "Father of the Bride Part II" as an otherwise innocuous fantasy of upper-middle-class American life.

		"Father Of the Bride" is not a cutting edge social commentary, just a humorous slice of life regarding a middle class Joe whose daughter is the apple of his eye, and the man in her life is suddenly someone else.
		A minor classic in a minor tradition, blending the late Forties with the early Fifties, "Father of the Bride" is a fragmentary but mainly delightful suburban comedy which finds Hollywood in its best light vein and benefits from a strong central performance...

		In a long flashback beginning with Kay’s stumbling admission to her mother (Joan Bennett) and father that she may have met the man of her dreams and will probably marry him, we get the entire story.
		There are movies where he played a gentle man, there are movies where he played a terrible man, but it was movies like this, when he plays a funny character, where he truly shined.
		All that fan gushing aside, Father of the Bride is also a terrific story of a man who loses his only little girl to the world.

		The mere idea of having Spencer Tracy playing the father of the bride, after his many years of portraying heavier characters, is in itself a triumph!

	STEVERINO: L.A. STORY, FATHER OF THE BRIDE
		FATHER OF THE BRIDE, the remake of the 1950 Vincente Minelli film, directed here by Charles Shyer, suggests the opposite problem, of what happens when Martin's personality gets watered down.
		And there's no real reason for updating it to the 90's except as a way to spoon-feed us the blandness of that era that Republicans claim was the best time America had.
		The story, of course, is the same; Martin is George, the father whose world is thrown into disarray when his daughter Annie (Kimberly Williams), whom he still sees as his little girl, announces she's getting married to Brian (George Newbern), whom she met while studying in Europe.

	Father of the Bride : Filmcritic.com Movie Review
		And that’s what you’ll be saying, too, as George whines about having to buy a tuxedo, mopes about the disruption to the house, disapproves of the perfect young man (George Newbern) who has deflowered his daughter, and gets all frantic about meeting his future in-laws (who are even richer than he is).
		Father of the Bride is the lightest of light comedies, a harmless little movie that probably didn’t need four writers and eight assorted producers given that it’s a remake.
		At least the new Father of the Bride is better than its sequel (yes, a sequel to a remake), in which both Nina and daughter get pregnant at the same time, a most improbable turn of events, and one that turns nervous George into a mass of quivering jelly.

		SYNOPSIS: A father of a young woman deals with the emotional pain of her getting married, and the financial and organizational pain of arranging her wedding.
		What grounds this film is the relationship between loving father and worshipful daughter.
		Taylor is radiant, as every young bride should be, bringing passion and personality to the proceedings, making her father's pain easily believable.

		Father of the Bride is a well-made light comedy, enhanced by a radiant performance from Elizabeth Taylor and Spencer Tracy at his subtle, comic best.
		If not as opulent as MGM films of the Irving Thalberg era, Father of the Bride nonetheless represents the type of high-quality studio film often produced in the post-WWII era.
		It was a huge financial success, and it is sometimes cited as evidence that the reputation of director Vincente Minnelli has come to center too much on his musicals and not enough on his broader work, such as this comedy.
