You know you’re in trouble when the outtakes during the end credits are the best part.

Consensus: Featuring one of Robin Williams' most shtick-heavy performances, the broad and formulaic License to Wed wrings little out of its slightly creepy, unappealing premise.
Theatrical Release:10-08-2007

Reviews for License To Wed
Forget about Saw, Hostel and all the other films in the new, notorious torture-porn genre. If you're looking for a really sick movie, check out License to Wed.
07/06/07
The inert License to Wed shambles along one lame scene after another.
07/05/07
'License To Wed' is a comedy fiasco.
07/05/07
...even if I could have put up with the unpleasantness of this as comedy, I still would have balked at the eventual portrayal of this monster [Williams] as an angel in disguise.
07/05/07
I have rarely seen a movie with less self-knowledge than License to Wed, an awful comedy made ever so slightly fascinating because of its dual personality.
07/05/07
A blitzed-looking man stumbling out of a screening of this dreadful excuse for unromantic comedy volunteered that the best part of the movie was when Robin Williams got socked in the jaw. Couldn’t agree more...
07/05/07
Williams, who seems to have shown up for a payday, lacks any of his typical spontaneity and might actually be sleep-joking through some scenes. An utterly uninspired movie that will leave you not wanting to get married, ever.
07/05/07
Going to this movie is at least a more enjoyable way to spend the Fourth of July weekend than participating in the Coney Island hot-dog eating contest.
07/04/07
The trials Ben and Sadie go through are nothing compared to the obstacle course inflicted on the audience, who has to work very hard to find anything entertaining or enjoyable.
07/04/07
so lifeless and bland you will only see it when Transformers is sold out and your girlfriend thinks that Jim guy from The Office is cute.
07/03/07
There's bad, there's awful and there's horrible, and then somewhere beyond that, in its own Kingdom of Lousy -- where all the milk curdles and the jokes aren't funny -- is License to Wed.
07/03/07
What this is really about is yet another entry in one of the more loathsome comedy genres, the humiliation of the hero.
07/03/07
It's highly amusing and its cast is extremely persuasive, playing the kind of roles that kill most careers: genuinely nice people.
07/03/07
The movie is plodding, predictable, formulaic and, worst of all, not funny.
07/03/07
The outtakes that accompany the end credits suggest that making the movie was a blast; it's a shame the same can't be said for watching it.
07/03/07
It used to be annoying when Robin Williams insisted on wrecking comedies with his overbearing shtick. Now, it's just sad and pathetic.
07/03/07
The story ends with a sentimental clunk. To say the picture isn't funny is putting it mildly. It isn't tolerable.
07/03/07
All it does is make you wish [Robin Williams] never discovered movies -- or, at least, stuck to voicing cartoons and doing the odd, occasional drama.
07/03/07
...a film that's an early favorite for worst comedy of the year.
