βLOVE WEDDING REPEATβ IS ONE WEDDING TO SLEEP THROUGH
Eleanor Tomlinson and Sam Claflin play brother and sister in the film
Love Wedding Repeat was released on Netflix on April 10, 2020. The film is an updated version of the 2012 French short film Plan de Table, which follows eight guests at a wedding.The synopsis Netflix provides for its newer version is simple enough - βDifferent versions of the same day unfold as Jack juggles difficult guests, unbridled chaos, and potential romance at his sisterβs wedding.βΒ
Basically, a wedding meets Groundhog Day. That actually sounds pretty interesting.
So why was Love Wedding Repeat so bad?
Itβs nearly impossible to answer that question without doing some serious digging and examination into the movie. Is it the shallow plot, tonal inconsistencies, or Sam Claflinβs atrocious haircut that caused Love Wedding Repeat to miss the mark? Letβs march down the aisle and see.
In this post, I will:
Summarize the plot
Conduct a character analysis for the ensemble (spoilers!)
Examine theΒ filmβs poor execution of βrepetitionβΒ
THE PLOT
From the start, itβs obvious Love Wedding Repeat has close to no concept of time. We start out with Jack (a miscast Sam Claflin) and Dina (a pretty, but boring) Olivia Munn at the end of a stay in Rome, where theyβve supposedly spent time together and fallen in love. Dina is the roomate of Hayley, Jackβs sister. Now, not only is the romantic chemistry between Jack and Dina non-existent - itβs really more of a sexual tension - but so is the desire to care about the two of them ending up together. The two are interrupted before a kiss can occur, and eventually head their separate ways.
Sam Claflin and Olivia Munn play love interests to one another
Fast forward 3 years and Hayley is getting married to wealthy Italian Roberto, causing Jack and Dina to reunite. The β3 yearsβ might as well have been the next day, since there appears to be little growth in any of them - especially Jack, who still struggles to formulate a sentence around Dina. Luckily, Hayleyβs placed them at the same table. But Jackβs desire to make a move is constantly interrupted by the other guests, and the distractions only grow when Hayleyβs ex-boyfriend Marc shows up to crash the wedding and a sleeping drug is misplaced in a champagne glass. And when love doesnβt prevail, the movie switches things around: showing us another seating arrangement at the table that changes the situations of each character. What should be a wild ride that eventually ends with love (and yes, a kiss) - feels shallow and undeserved.
THE CHARACTERS
The ensemble is talented, but lacks cohesion
JACK
Sam Claflin portrays the main character
I like Sam Claflin. I really like Sam Claflin. Heβs more than suitable to handle these types of films, with romances Me Before You and Love, Rosie under his belt. But, here, the lack of personality to Jackβs character makes it difficult for Sam to bring much to the film. Now, Sam certainly does carry the film, but itβs definitely breaking his back in the process. Thereβs only two things to know about Jack: 1) he likes Dina a lot (I still doubt itβs love - despite what the film says) and 2) he loves his sister. Everything else: dead parents, a job as an engineer, an ex-girlfriend -Β all which would help bring a sense of depth to Jack as a person - is simply mentioned and never truly explored. His bumbling speech and βjust canβt winβ trait make it hard to not like Jack, but it does grow old after a while. One would think that losing Dina 3 years prior and finding her newly single would make Jack jump at the chance to make a move, but he still struggles to articulate his feelings to her, or even ask guests to leave so he can speak to her alone. It hurts to watch Jackβs awkwardness be one of the biggest barriers between him and Dina - the film would strengthen if Jack was actively trying to speak or flirt and then was pulled away. Jackβs supposed conflict of having Amanda, his ex-girlfriend, attend the wedding is hardly a conflict, given their relationship seems to have consisted of more sex than substance and Dina barely seems to care about Amandaβs presence. In an attempt to make Jack have something to his character, he ended up with nothing.Β Well, nothing but a kiss and a wealthy brother-in-law.Β
HAYLEY & ROBERTO
Eleanor Tomlinson and Tiziano Caputo play the marrying couple
Hayley and Roberto are the couple causing the βweddingβ in the filmβs title, which fails to show a ceremony and instead, spends the film at the reception. Now, Roberto plays next-to-nothing of a role in the film, so letβs focus on Hayley, who is arguably the cause of all conflict in the film.
During her relationship with Roberto and (fairly near to the wedding), Hayley slept with old classmate, Marc, who unexpectedly shows up to the wedding to declare his love for her and expose the secret. Hayley threatens to have security to remove Marc from the wedding, but decides that recruiting Jack to drug Marc with sleeping medication is somehow a better idea. How? In the first scenario, the infidelity is exposed and during an argument with Hayley, Roberto accidentally falls off of the balcony to his death. In the second (and final) scenario, Marc has a change of heart, keeping the secret to himself, leaving Roberto to live his married life in blissful ignorance. Apparently, if in the second scenario loveΒ prevails, being honest isnβt part of the deal. Hayleyβs infidelity is excused because according to her βit didnβt mean anythingβ and she βloves Roberto!β If love truly prevailed - if Haley truly loved Roberto - the truth shouldβve come out with Hayley admitting it and (hopefully) Roberto forgiving. But, thatβs just me and my ideas.Β
Anyways, Hayley also decides to invite Jackβs ex-girlfriend Amanda for whatever reason (itβs not even mentioned if Amanda and Hayley are friends) and to sit her and Jack at the same table. I thought she loved her brother? Itβs no surprise when the table arrangement goes south, and is that the fault of the little kids who switched the name cards, or the bride who planned: not only for those particular people to sit at the table but to add a sleeping drug into the mix?Β
DINA
Olivia Munn plays Dina
Olivia Munn really tries with this role. You can tell she attempted to bring something to the table with Dina, but - similar to Jack - thereβs not much to her. Sheβs a foreign correspondent and former roommate/friend of Hayley, but sheβs mainly just the pretty girl whoβs Jackβs love interest. Dina is at the wedding as a plot device. Sheβs there to remind Jack to seize his chance at love, sheβs there to be separated from Jack or whisked away, she almost exists as a symbol. Her story of being kidnapped whilst in Afghanistan and coming back to care for a sick mother who would eventually pass is played twice for laughs, making it hard to find anything to care about for her. βDoes she even like Jack?β is what I wondered in the back of my mind. She definitely engages in conversation with him, but her flirtiness is hard to find as more than friendliness. Itβs known that Dina is newly single, having broken up with an ex. While this is a golden opportunity for Jack, itβs not even determined whether Dina is interested in another relationship. It certainly wouldβve been nice to see Dina try to make an effort towards Jack as well - truly making it feel as if both sides are being kept apart.
BRYAN & REBECCA
Joel Fry and Aisling Bea play Bryan and Rebecca
Itβs established early that the comedic side-kick is Bryan, the man-of-honor-maid-of-honor, whose relationship to Hayley or Jack doesnβt feel entirely sincere no matter how the film tries. He doesnβt come across as a βride-or-dieβ type of best friend, and itβs unclear how he and Hayley even met, or what his relationship is like with Jack. Is he best friends to both of them? Thereβs little time to ask these questions (not like the film would answer) since Bryan announces his plan for the evening: convincing famous director Vitelli to give him a role in a film. This βsubplotβ is little plot, since Vitelliβs presence or effect on the wedding is barely felt. In the first scenario, this plan fails tremendously, with Bryan (victim of the sleeping medicine) falling asleep on Vitelli and mid-speech. In the second scenario, the plan works, but only after he falls in love with Rebecca, the blunt Irish guest whose relation to Jack or Hayley is not made clear. Honestly, Rebecca was my favorite character, possibly because she had a clear personality. Even if her chatterbox nature was exploited for exposition, Aisling Bea plays the obliviously honest nature with such perfection that I didnβt mind. Rebecca and Bryan have supposedly dated, but in the end, the two end up together, so thereβs little time to care about what caused the breakup. I could only wish that Bryan had acted as more of a wingman for Jack and Rebecca had been given a larger role, perhaps as a wingwoman for Dina.
MARC
Jack Farthing plays the coked-up wedding crasher
If Marc was more of a looming threat, his arrival couldβve easily saved the movie. In fact, I was intrigued by his arrival: who is this disheveled, red-eyed man stumbling into the wedding reception? Whoever he was, he was obviously up to no good. However, the one thing that makes Marc interesting: the secret of him and Hayley having slept together, is quickly taken away or avoided when Hayley reveals the information to Jack (and the audience) on her own. Marc is not much of a physical threat either, his druggy demeanor makes him easy to overtake, hence why in the first scenario heβs locked up in a armoire. While the whole situation with Marc could have easily been avoided had Hayley had security remove him, the sleeping drug intended for him never finds its way in his champagne glass. And whatβs worse: the audience never gets to see that scenario. If Marc was intended to be the antagonist of this movie (which the film will try to convince you he is), he surely failed by barely being much of a threat to begin with.Β
CHAZ & AMANDA
Allan Mustafa and Freida Pinto play Chaz and Amanda
If Hayleyβs enemy of love is Marc, then surely Jackβs is his ex-girlfriend Amanda. Or, supposed to be. Unfortunately, what is told about Amanda is worse than what is shown. For someone whoβs supposed to be extremely rude and problematic, Amanda just seems to be extremely annoyed at best. Even when seated next to Jack, she doesnβt bother commenting on the situation, but her unbearable fiancΓ© Chaz sure does. His angry comments towards Jack seem to be coming from a place of hurt: Amanda has not responded to his marriage proposal six months prior. But where Chaz could really be a character to wreak some havoc, especially for Jack, his lines are delegated to unfunny penis jokes for nearly the entirety of the movie. No wonder Amanda is annoyed.
SIDNEY
Tim Key plays Sidney
Speaking of annoying, itβs time to talk about the last character of the ensemble: Sidney. Who is this guy? Once again, his relationship is not made clear and the audience is quite confused by the kilt-wearing-crotch-adjusting guest who lacks social intelligence. You can tell when Sidney is supposed to be funny and unfortunately it falls short every time. I guess him finding love in the end is supposed to make us feel some type of way, but it failed to move me. Every member of an ensemble should have something to contribute, and I can say - aside from a few scenes where he was needed to act as a barrier between Jack and Dina - Sidney was completely unnecessary in the film.
VITELLI
Paolo Mazzarelli plays Vitelli in the film
Why was Vitelli in this film? What exactly did he add? Is he actively scouting for a new movie or did guests just assume? Whatβs his whole relationship thing with Dina? He offered her a ride - was he romantically interested or trying to cast her? Who even is this guy? How does Roberto know him?Β Β
I just...why?
THE ORACLE
Penny Ryder voices The Oracle
Thereβs a narrator in this film. Donβt ask why. Not only is she completely unnecessary and unhelpful, the message she spews for a majority of the film is not only untrue butΒ contradicts the entire plot: that chance is the enemy of love.
βREPEAT?β
Confused, Bryan? So am I.
I donβt whatβs worse: that I canβt tell you how many times the film lived up to the βrepeatβ part of its name, or that I donβt want to. Itβs true: the film only plays out the entirety of two scenarios when it comes to seating at the table. The rest are muddled in what is perhaps the worst montage Iβve seen recently (and Iβve been subjected to multiple βsenior sznβ recaps on IGTV), and offer no information. In this montage, we donβt know who has the sleeping drug, and the entirety of the table isnβt even in frame. You donβt know who is sitting where or who has the sleeping drug. I guess it doesnβt matter because Jack and Dina donβt end up together, but it does matter because it needs to make the wait worth it. The audience should be subjected to different crazy scenarios: they should realize how completely wrong everything has gone. They should be tired of reliving the same wedding reception, they should want Jack and Dina to end up together to just end it.Β
But I must say, the best part of the montage was Jack and Rebecca end up tongue-kissing. Thatβs a scenario Iβd love to see.
CONCLUSION
A kiss to end it all
I hate to bash a directorial debut. But I hate wasted potential more.
Love Wedding Repeat couldβve been something great - it really couldβve. Itβs easy to see the same idea executed better going down as a modern rom-com classic. But Love Wedding Repeatβs failure to live up to its name is a major disappointment, especially giving the talented leads (who are better off playing friends than a couple). The idea was certainly there, and so were the resources. I mean, they shot on-location in Rome. But if Love Wedding Repeat shows anything, itβs how a lackluster script can truly harm a concept. You canβt tell us sad stuff about our characters, show the sadness. Show the tension between Jack and Amanda, show us the camaraderie between Hayley and Bryan, show how reckless and wild Marc is - make us care and understand. It shouldnβt just be Jack who wants a kiss between him and Dina - it should be us.
Overall, I can only hope what Netflix has in store for the future when it comes to rom-coms isnβt anywhere close to repeating this complete mess.Β
