ShotgunWedding Review: Jennifer Lopez Hardly Redeems Mediocre Action Comedy
Last year when Marry Me, the romantic comedy starring Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson was being released, many were touting it as a return to form by the pop singer-turned-actress, once a reigning queen of rom-coms. But the film was hardly worth the fanfare and landed with a whimper in theaters and on streaming.
No one can deny that Jennifer Lopez is one of the hardest-working people in the industry, but her ability to pull good projects has become less and less effective. Granted, her acting career hasn’t always produced bangers, but there are classics in the mix that are undeniable due to her charismatic persona and, well, her beauty. Shotgun Wedding attempts to highlight some of the qualities that make her who she is, but they never hit.
Shotgun Wedding is ultimately a movie about two people who are inexperienced with violence going full Mr. and Mrs. Smith on a group of terrorists and somehow coming away unscathed. The key to making it all funny and entertaining is to have the absurdity of the situation cranked up to an 11. There are some funny bits and running jokes that earn a chuckle, but there is very little that holds one's attention.
