Monsoon Wedding

I know this film is popular, but it's not one of my favorites. I had never seen it and I'd heard that it was a good movie, so when my friend lent it to me, I watched it right away. I was disappointed. While well acted and interesting, with some good dramatic moments, it didn't move me in the way that many of the other movies (that I've reviewed here) have. The movie is basically about the preparations and ceremonies involved in a traditional wedding. The marriage was arranged; the bride and groom have differences that they work out before their wedding. This generates the plot. In addition, we have a sub plot revolving around the sister of the bride, and another sub plot involving the wedding planner. The final ceremony is a wet one (hence the title) but all end up happy. Monsoon Wedding is worth seeing.
