Shotgun Wedding

2022

Indonesia

Jason Moore

Romcom Action Thriller

What’s it all about: Jennifer Lopez can’t decide if she’s a girlie girl who faints at the sight of blood, or her usual kick-ass self who drops grenades on pirates and lights bad guys’ faces on fire. Luckily, Jennifer Coolidge is on hand to keep this from feeling like a hostage situation.

First Encounter: first viewing   

Prostitute Index: nil

Death By: helicopter fu @joebobbriggsofficial

Relics: a “something borrowed” cake knife

Hoops: J-Lo’s career-long obsession with proving she’s just Jenny from the block – name dropping Old Navy and shapewear, pigging out on camera, and casting Sônia Braga as her Brazilian mother to expand her dominance as alpha latina

Heartthrobs: J-Lo, Selena Tan

Pass/Fails the Test of Time: Lenny Kravitz

LoFi Magic: pirates with a sense of flair; hair extensions to the rescue

Words to live by: “Darcy! We’d come with you! But we don’t want to!”

Makes me want to: invite Jennifer Coolidge to my wedding (or just marry her)

Candotti Take: “Her dress never gets dirty. A plain Versace dress. / She seems to be more screaming than actually talking in the movie.”

Worth a watch/rewatch: Yes
