Every time you give credit to these kind of comedies 9 times over 10 you'll remain disappointed. You say yourself that probably they couldn't serve you the same soup as did several times ago. Another good reason can be J.Lo, which is a quite good actress, it's true.
To stay at home with your girl or your family it's probably a good choice (well, not for you, but for her), but there's a limit this film has overcome. Not a more predictable, nonsense story could have been invented. People in love at first sight, weddings crashing on the altar and runaways of brides. The script is stuffed with some comic gags (a bit vulgar, like the scene of the statue), and the eccentricities of Massimo and his family. At least they spared us the typical gay friend ! Too little to save the weak plot, clear pretext to give J.Lo a role and make a rich box-office.
The direction is decent (the budget was quite considerable!), as for the soundtrack and the two good starring actors. Surely, a classic in the genre, a must see for women on the point of wedding. Otherwise, it's a romantic, ordinary comedy for lovers only.
