The Wedding Planner (2001)by Tristi Pinkston | More from this Blogger 23 Jan 2008 09:00 AM
One day while crossing the street, her shoe gets caught in the middle of the road. Out of nowhere comes a dashing knight in shining armor who pulls her out of harm's way and even goes back for the shoe, which, she tells him, is a designer brand. They spend the evening together in the park, watching an old movie. She's sure she's found the right guy at last. His name is Steve Edison (Matthew McConaughey) he's a doctor, and he's perfect. Her dreams of romance come crashing down when she goes into work to meet her new client's fiancé and discovers it's Steve. His fiancé calls him Eddie, because of his last name, so she had never dreamed they could be the same man. She's hurt and feels betrayed. What was all that in the park, if he's engaged to someone else? Throwing herself into the wedding plans and ignoring her own heart, she's determined to forget all about him. He, on the other hand, is having a hard time forgetting her, too, and calls off his wedding. But now his task is to win back her trust and convince her that he really is the guy for her. This film is a lot of fun, but it's not one that I would call outstanding. It's rated PG-13 for language and some innuendo. As an interesting side note, Jennifer Love-Hewitt and Brendan Fraser were originally slated to star in this movie. I'm glad they couldn't make it-I think we ended up with the right actors for these characters.
