The Wedding Planner (2001 Adam Shankman)

The Wedding Planner has a good twist a third through - otherwise it's not especially well written. Jennifer Lopez OK as titular character, Matthew McConaughey better as romantic lead, Judy Greer (Jeff Who Lives at Home, The Descendants, 27 Dresses, Elizabethtown, What Women Want) good as uptight planner, Bridgette Wilson-Sampras is fiancee and Justin Chambers an annoying Italian. (And it's not just his character that's annoying - his accent seems to be frequently located in the West German side of Israel. His father, played by Alex Rocco - GF's Moe Green of all people - has an even worse Italian accent.)

So the twist aside, it's frighteningly predictable. Shot in widescreen by Julio Macat.
