It’s an inoffensive and unchallenging little film. Full Review |

2/5 |
Take out all the elements of The Big Chill that made you like that film and keep the ones that annoyed you and you've got The Wedding Weekend. Full Review |

Indie buddy comedy hits too many wrong notes. Full Review |

The cast veers from overly theatrical (Rogers) to amusing (Molly Shannon as Ted's wife Shannon, a woman who speaks her mind without thinking about the consequences) to spot on (Harbour, DeWitt, Basche, and several others). Full Review |

Cute is as cute does. Not much more. Eh. Full Review |

The cinematic equivalent of catchy soft-rock elevator music. Full Review |

The title is the least of the film's problems; far more significant is its failed attempt to make its protagonists endearing instead of obnoxious. Full Review |

It's pretty insubstantial stuff. Full Review |

As for the singing, it's pleasant but unctuous and, frankly, made me squirm. Full Review |

One long sour note. Full Review |

Molly Shannon, as the raunchy wife of the group's most reserved member, is the best-known actor in the cast and its most obnoxious. Full Review |

|
3.5/5 |
The actors are well cast and effective. As a film, Sing Now, shot on location, is as attractive as its cast. Full Review |

2.5/5 |
Its dramatic freight lurches, and intriguing characters (a sex savant, an Indian human beat box) are sold short; a thinning of the ranks might have helped.

Sing Now or Forever Hold Your Peace is a poor man's Big Chill, proving that navel gazing isn't the sole province of early baby boomers. Full Review |

1.5/4 |
If, when this gang lights into Our Love Is Here to Stay, you feel you've entered a very special chamber in Hell, rest assured you're not alone. Full Review |

Do we really need another movie with thirtysomethings who ache to re-live their college years? C'mon, guys, grow up! Full Review |

The latter may be the better option in this lame comedy. Full Review |

Sing Now/Wedding Weekend has a marvelous personality to it that does wonders to alleviate the problem areas that plague the script. Full Review |
