Marry Me
When song meets math, see if it all adds up in this romantic comedy fairytale. Celebrity superstar pop singer Kat Valdez (Jennifer Lopez) impulsively asks divorced dad/math teacher Charlie Gilbert (Owen Wilson) to marry her when her fiancé’s infidelity is exposed. This is the type of reality tv story that audiences want to see, featuring Lopez in the kinda role that people imagine she plays day to day. Wilson represents Joe Blow, ordinary dad trying to raise his teenage daughter. Lopez always brings it as a singer & performer. Wilson is the lovable awkward good guy. Sarah Silverman plays the comic relief sidekick. Two souls from different worlds challenging each other & bringing themselves closer together. This one is about not making the same mistakes over again. This is a cute & sweet story for all of those romantics.
Alien gives it 3½ “Wonder Wheel” stars out of 4.
