Review:

Sabrina (Paula Patton) and Jason Taylor (Laz Alonso), despite the differences in their financial stability and their upbringing, fall in love and want to get married. Seems easy enough, but because their decision is quick even though they’d been dating for five months, their families have not met their new in-laws. And so at their rehearsal is when the fireworks begin when Sabrina’s mom (Angela Bassett) who is very classy and rich meets the down-to-earth and sassy mother of Jason (Loretta Devine). Their fighting over where to have the wedding starts a whole slew of battles which makes the couple wonder if getting hitched is even the right thing to do. The whole thing is proving to also be a quite distressing assignment for wedding planner Amy (Julie Bowen from Modern Family), who is just trying to get through it all. Read more…

And it doesn’t help that her life long best friend Darcy, who is engaged to be married, is bugging her that the clock is ticking. But when she finally finds love in Dex (Colin Egglesfield), a past acquaintance from her law school, all is good until she finds out that he’s actually getting hitched to Darcy (Kate Hudson). Rachel must decide whether to tell her best friend and risk their long time relationship or dive into the love that she really wants. Read more…

Review:

The big night is approaching for a group of high school seniors, each with their own trial and tribulations over the most important event of their lives. Prom is what Nova (Aimee Teegarten) has always dreamed about and she pictures the perfect night with the perfect guy. And she is determined as class president and head of the prom committee to make that happen, but when the guy she hopes will ask simply wants to carpool and not bring her to the dance, it turns her world upside down. All her planning may be for naught if she doesn’t even have a date. And to make matters worse, the principal assigns a trouble making, yet handsome loner Jesse (Thomas McDonell) who doesn’t believe in prom to help her or not graduate. Can this mismatched pair wind up finding happiness and will Nova get her happy ending? You’ll just have to see. Meanwhile other students are also getting ready for the dance of the year, but their quest is not without issues either. Mei (Yin Chang) and Tyler (De’Vaughn Nixon) find that there are revelations that are revealed that threaten their relationship. And of course, no movie about a dance would be complete without the one bumbling nerd like character Lucas (played this time by Nolan Sotillo) who will do anything to get a date at all. Read more…
