Muriel's Wedding

SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE.

Socially awkward Muriel Heslop wants nothing more than to get married. Unfortunately, due to her oppressive politician father, Muriel has never even been on a date. Ostracized by her more socially adept friends, Muriel runs into fellow outcast Rhonda Epinstalk, and the two move from their small Australian town to the big city of Sydney, where Muriel changes her name and begins the arduous task of redesigning her life to match her fantasies.

Reviews:

  • Luis George
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.

    An overhyped movie that failed to deliver. I didn’t connect with the characters or the plot.

    Surprisingly good! I didn't expect much, but the twists and emotional depth really pulled me in.

    A fun, light-hearted movie that's perfect for a weekend watch. Not too deep, but enjoyable.

    A gripping story with strong performances. The ending was a bit predictable, but overall a great watch.
