DVD Reviews of Cowboys and Angels
DVD Review: Wedding Crasher
Summary: 4 Stars
-With one look at the plot summary for this movie, one might be led to believe that this is some sappy story about a man deciding to be a cowboy after his bride leaves him, which is total bullplop. Yeah the movie is somewhat about that but that's a pretty small part of the larger picture. The story here is about a man that goes through some fire to finally find the woman of his dreams. It's a fantastic story told amazingly by writer/director Gregory Haynes. It's heartwarming and sweet without being overly sentimental and it has an amazing sense of humor. The line by the little black kid "you two are white" is just hilarious and one of the many great things about this movie.
-The main character in the movie pretty much has to deal with betrayal and heartbreak for most of the movie only to find out what everything was truly about in a "Touched by an Angel" manner. Great credit to Adam Trese for playing the character wonderfully. He's just a sweet guy that falls in love a little too easily. You really root for him and at the end when everything falls into play for him and his life seems to be on the rise. Trese plays the character with a naïve yet burnt style that makes him vulnerable. He's being screwed over by love before and not sure whether it's right to fall in love again. It sounds cheesy when I say it like that but he does a great job of it in the movie.
-My favorite character in the movie is JoJo and Radha Mitchell plays her perfectly in the movie. She's loves going to weddings, but it's not something that she's obsessed with. It just makes her feel complete and is that one thing with her that makes her happy more than anything. She has a line in which she talks about how every time a shooting star falls it means that an angel has fallen from heaven to guide someone and that pretty much applies to her character. She's like the guiding light that leads Danny to find the love of his life which something that complicates their relationship. The very beautiful Mia Kirshner plays the other woman in Danny's life that ends up being the one. It's impossible to watch her in the movie without falling in love with her. Her soft voice and those eyes, it just makes me glad to be straight. She's amazing in the movie like every actor in the movie and I dare anyone not to be a huge fan of her after seeing her in this.
-I don't know what DP Kramer Morgenthau did to the camera in this movie but he made the two leading ladies look spectacularly beautiful. I've seen Radha Mitchell and Mia Kirshner on the screen before and this is by far the best looking they've ever been. Especially Radha Mitchell, it's like the camera has a love affair with her or something. Unlike "Everything Put Together" which had some unflattering shots of her, she looks absolutely beautiful in this. I mean when she smiles it just makes your heart melt, just amazing. Equally achingly beautiful is Mia Kirshner who as one reviewer pointed was nice to see her not kissing another woman or taking her top off. She is stunning in the movie and I just love the way the camera accentuates her lovely eyes. It's like looking into the stars or something. Yes I know that was cheesy as hell but Morgenthau just makes the women look so lovely. He's currently working on "Feast of Love" and that features Radha Mitchell so I'm guessing he's going to bring his magic to that movie too.
-The music in the movie is something to behold. The stuff that sounded like source music taken from country music was all right, but the real treat was the original score by Stephen Edwards. I've seen a lot of low budget flicks and this is by far the best low budget score I've ever heard. That little theme that he plays for Radha Mitchell's character is amazing. He first plays a variation of the theme when we first meet her, and later when on the steps of the church after the wedding vows sequence with JoJo and Danny we hear it in its full glory. The best rendition of it to me will always be the one he does for the dream sequence in the hospital when JoJo comes to visit the injured Danny. I just can't say enough good things about the amazing score to this and it's by far one of the movie's strongest quality. Stephen Edwards is on my radar now, and I look forward to hearing more from the amazing composer. The songs are great too and I hope there's an album release or something so I can hear it whenever I wanted.
-In a world where romantic comedies are sappy and melodramatic, this one sticks out like two white people at a black wedding. I'm glad I'm saw it and hope to add it to my DVD collection soon.
Kudos Gregory Haynes
