Runaway Bride (1999)
6/10
Somewhat works
9 April 2016
Runaway bride, which is the second romantic comedy starring Gere and Roberts, somewhat works in its own way. I mean the script is a little weaker than I would have liked, it doesn't suck, but it had the necessary potential to be more than it turned out to be. Joan cusack was likable as ever playing the best friend role, as she usually does, but that's OK, because she really suits that type of movie character. Also, the chemistry between the leads isn't as obvious here as it was in pretty woman, I just didn't feel it as much in runaway bride. That is one of its biggest issues, not enough on screen romantic chemistry between Gere and Roberts. Some of the movie is kinda funny and amusing, but other scenes are kinda tedious. Also I did enjoy Christopher Meloni, so I'll give him a good shoutout, he was funny, rugidly attractive, kinda dopey at times, and macho, he fits his character pretty well. 6/10 for runaway bride.
