I might have been able to enjoy this movie more if there was (a) more character development of Adam's actual fiance (b) there were actually consequences to Adam's actions (c) more character development of Adam and (d) a point. Alas, there was not.
The idea itself, a cad who is out to seduce an entire family is an interesting story point. However, it was not handled with any deft or depth. We don't know why he does it, and in fact we are supposed to like a guy who brings such joy to this immoral family with his seduction and lies. We have virtually no idea why Lucy chose any of the men before or why she chooses him, especially since she cheats on him before the wedding with a sad sack of an ex; apparently to bring parity to the pathetic lie of a marriage they enter into at the end. There are also no consequences for the duplicity - which also could be fun and interesting, but in this movie it's not.
I'm just surprised he didn't seduce the mother. Or did he?
