Directed

Farrelly
The
Farrellies
are
no strangers
to off
the
wall
romantic
comedies.
Here
things
tread
similar
ground
as their
Something
About
Mary
hit,
but
lacks
a lot
of its
charm.
Stiller
plays
a single
man
who
meets
a very
nice
girl.
When
she’s
about
to leave
the
country
for
work
reasons,
he takes
the
leap
and
asks
her
to marry
him
to avoid
a good
thing
slipping
through
his
fingers.
Shortly
after
the
wedding
on the
way
to their
Mexican
honeymoon,
the
little
irritating
things
start
creeping
in,
slowly
escalating
into
astronomical
personality
clashes,
serving
up one
disastrous
holiday.
But,
he meets
a girl
at the
resort
which
is totally
his
type…
This
movie
could
well
silently
plead
the
case
for
pre-marital
communal
living
to suss
things
out,
before
taking
that
leap.
Extra
features
include
many
interviews
and
behind
the
scenes
looks
at the
production,
including
the
Egg
Toss
ritual
with
which
the
crew
occupied
themselves
with
after
shooting.
