Similar Formula to Original With Some Success

Nov 29, 2004

Rating:

Father of the Bride was a classic comedy. So one knew that a sequel had to be on the way. The original cast of Steve Martin, Diane Keaton, Kimberly Williams, and Martin Short are back and in fine form.

Whereas there are some comical moments, it just seems like the pacing of the film is oh so identical to the original. Just as Mrs Banks announces her pregancy, Franc is on the scene to plan another baby shower. And a double one at that to honor Kimberly William's character. The scenes just become to off the wall an the repetitive false alarms add very little to the story.

Nonetheless, Steve Martin and Martin Short are very entertaining. The wrecking ball scene with Mr. Habib is priceless. Not quite the original but Father of the Bride 2 certainly rates as amusing.
