	'Four Weddings and a Funeral' (R)
		"Four Weddings and a Funeral" is an English lark full of lovely hats and pretty Brits, a movie to cheer you up and on and help you feel that spring will, in fact, arrive before we are all too desiccated to enjoy it.
		This ritual, in contrast to the frivolity of the weddings, spurs Charlie to really think about commitment (as much as he is capable of) and spins the movie off to its eventful finale.
		Four Weddings and a Funeral is rated R for naughty words and sex scenes.

		Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) is an appealing romantic comedy, with more clever situations and good wit than is typical of the genre.
		Those feelings are accentuated by a string of weddings (and a funeral) that seem to underscore his situation and the finite temporal nature of his existence.
		In preparation for the third wedding, poor Charles is enlisted, for example, into helping Carrie pick out her wedding dress, all the while pining over the fact that he will not be the groom.

		“Four Weddings and a Funeral” is a charming and thoroughly British comedy-of-manners with a dumb American romance tacked on.
		There are plenty of people, after all, that we do define solely by their behavior at weddings and funerals because that’s the only time we interact with them.
		Anyway, he is “a cad” in “Four Weddings,” which is to say that if he were a girl you would call him “a slut.” He hops from woman to woman, not so much because he feels entitled to them, but because he dreads commitment, because he is weak, and because he can.

	Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994)
		Just as When Harry Met Sally captured the essence of male-female relationships, Four Weddings and a Funeral conveys everything that is hilariously and poignantly true about the ceremonies we use to tie the knot and bid loved ones farewell.
		Four Weddings is being simultaneously re-released in two versions with similar-looking covers.
		With or without the DVD extras, Four Weddings and a Funeral is more than just an engaging ensemble piece or romantic comedy: it's also a wonderful comedy of manners and a wickedly funny commentary on a cherished institution.

	Mutant Reviewers from Hell do "Four Weddings and a Funeral"
		Weddings are all about high-strung women on the verge of exploding into puffy-pastel dresses, men who see the free bar as their only viable lifeline, and about five hundred too many awkward and trying moments for all involved.

		The budget for the film was so small that the Scottish wedding wasn't filmed in Scotland, and the extras had to bring their own suits to the weddings.

		Ealing touch is Four Weddings and a Funeral, a British film directed by Mike Newell which shows off the comedic talent of Hugh Grant, who plays a young man who regularly attends weddings but avoids marriage until he meets up with a brash American.
		It is obviously the ceremonial trappings of the weddings, not the spiritual content, that interests the filmmaker.
		Based on a popular novel, the film traces the stories of four women born in prerevolutionary China who come to the U.S. and, with varying degrees of success, raise their daughters in a society which is less repressive than the old country but which is nevertheless dominated by men.

		George the Boor at The Boatman - Wedding One
		The most ludicrous of the four is the final WEDDING where the major character admits that he would prefer being in love with another to paying attention to Hen, his on-again, off-again love interest who is in full bridal costume standing next to him.
		The wedding theme of the picture is lovely and enthralling; the consequences of being more committed to one's tag-along companions than to a monogamous partner are indirectly put forward as the "cause" of Gareth's death, one might theorize.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Four Weddings and a Funeral \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		The opening night premiere event at the Sundance Film Festival in January was the English comedy "Four Weddings and a Funeral," a frequently hilarious romantic romp that won over local audiences despite its propensity for R-rated language.
		A very funny and warm effort, "Four Weddings" strives to recapture the screwball sensibility of another era, succeeding to a surprising degree.
		Though I would personally have preferred the foul language to be toned down, "Four Weddings and a Funeral" remains a most appealing, sweet and beguiling romance.

		Grant keeps running into an attractive American (Andie MacDowell) at these festivities and begins a long-running affair with her, even as he attends her own wedding, the funeral of one of his best friends, and his own pending nuptials.
		With winning performances all around, great lines, be they witty, acerbic, or poignant, Four Weddings And A Funeral is a funny, romantic, and heartwarming winner from director Mike Newell (Enchanted April, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire [pending]).
		The scene at the first wedding with the minister blowing his lines in the wedding vows was truly a stitch.

	Commonweal: Four Weddings and a Funeral. - movie reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The great strength of Richard Curtis's script for the comedy, Four Weddings and a Funeral, isn't its dialogue (though there are many funny lines), nor its characterizations (which keep the plot humming but are rarely interesting in themselves), nor the passages of physical humor (only a cut above the better TV sitcoms).
		Curtis's special triumph here is in the sheer arrangement of the action, the crafting of a plot in which events and character quirks rhyme, contrast with, reverse, and echo one another as the hero, Charles, a young man who despairs of ever finding true love, staggers through the five ceremonies of the title.
		A seminarian who's just a shy guest at the first wedding becomes the presiding priest at the second and nearly capsizes the wedding vows with his spectacular ineptitude.

		The country that gave American moviegoers A Room With a View, Enchanted April, and Howards End has done it again: The veddy British romantic comedy Four Weddings and a Funeral is the most unexpected hit of the spring.
		It resonates in every small town in America.'' Four Weddings widened to 900 screens only last week, but it's already grossed $24.7 million, a spectacular sum for a low-budget foreign art film with one name American actress in a cast of British unknowns, and it could top out at twice that.
		While the movie's universal themes have certainly helped it in mainstream America, Four Weddings had at its helm a group of hip Londoners who were bent on making a piece about people much like themselves.
