Shotgun Wedding isn’t the worst rom-com ever made, but it’s the type of generically terrible offering that serves as a reminder of why my beloved genre fell out of fashion — a fate that Jennifer Lopez herself may be partially responsible for.

While the director Jason Moore spends much of the film demonstrating how good Lopez looks at 53, Coolidge steals every scene she is in as the mother of the groom (“when I’m in formal wear I like to pee standing up”).

This Wedding clearly wasn't meant to be a masterpiece, but even as mid-winter fluff it feels like a rush job.

The real draw is Lopez and Duhamel, whose odd-couple energy is delightfully daffy. The film cleverly riffs on their film personas, and delivers on action/comedy buffoonery with zeal.
