Plot Summary: The twisted minds of two of the six screenwriters behind "Scary Movie" – Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg – this time skewer the romantic comedy genre. The new film tells the story of hopeless romantic Julia Jones (Hannigan), who has finally met the man of her dreams, the very British Grant Funckyerdoder (Campbell). But before they can have their "Big Fat Greek Wedding," they'll have to "Meet the Parents;" hook-up with "The Wedding Planner," and contend with Grant's friend Andy – a spectacularly beautiful woman who wants to put an end to her "Best Friend's Wedding."

Honestly, the previews to this movie crack me up!

I just hope the movie stays funny and not that the only funny scenes, were the ones in the previews.

I just saw it with a 15 and 14 year old boy and I'd highly recommend if you see it, you see it at a discounted matinee. There are some laughs, but a lot of don't make me watch this gross out scenes too. It must have taken them 15 minutes to write it. Even the 14 year old said "I guess I laughed a few times". There's a great parody bit of the Bachelor, but in general more of the parodies miss than hit.

One of the shorter movies I've seen in ages, seemed like just over an hour.

I just watched it. If you can somehow revert back to a time when you thought stupid stuff like this was funny, you might enjoy the movie. I used to love movies like this when I was in my early teens (Amazon Women on the Moon, stuff like that). There were several dumb parts, but there were also some that were pretty darn funny.
