 Quirky Sep 29, 2008
I love this movie, though it doesn't seem to have the mass appeal. Plus it was filmed in my area. Great performances by Danes, Byrne & Olin.
"Polish Wedding" Jun 16, 2008
A good laugh. This movie describes the ethnic input into American society very well and we can all have a laugh at the Pole's expense. God help us if our daughters ever get into a mess like this. Enjoy.

Pointless May 12, 2007
I have to disagree with the reviewers who say that this movie is offensive to Poles. I don't have an ounce of Polish blood, but I still found it to be a huge insult to my intelligence.
The movie was boring, pointless, and painfully unfunny. The filmmakers seem to think that all they have to do to make a movie quirky is to have their actors do stupid or self-destructive things, then follow it with happy circus music.
Don't waste your time with this movie.
Busting stereotypes Apr 21, 2007
Let me say first that if this film had been entitled, Pennsylvania Dutch Protestant Wedding, I might have had a different reaction to it.
Ultimately, though, it's about the truth behind the image people present of themselves and so its business is one of busting stereotypes, specifically the most mundane and therefore common stereotypes of life--Mother, Wife, Father, Husband, Daughter, Brother . . . Carl Jung would have loved this film. When people present themselves as icons, trouble is apt to follow.
The final act is hilarious in that it could happen in any family and any culture and proves that real life is apt to exciting enough even for a drama queen.
