It has its moments...but nothing more.

The story begins with Harry getting married. While they are waiting to take the train for their honeymoon, they go see a 'House of the Future' being demonstrated. Unfortunately, one of the folks there has Smallpox and everyone is quarantined. Instead of spending his wedding night with his bride, Harry is forced to room with a psychotic drunk.

When you watch the lovely silent movies that Harry Langdon made and then compare them to "His Bridal Sweet", you can't help but notice how different they are from each other. Although his silents were popular, when Langdon left the studio and went out on his own, the plots he was given just didn't fit the nice persona he'd created. So, while "His Bridal Sweet" is not a terrible film, it is for Langdon....and he ended up making years and years of sub-par movies like it. What a waste.
