I hate to say the following words "they don't make it like this anymore" ... but you wouldn't be wrong uttering them in connection with this movie. Of course one of the reasons they don't make them like this anymore is because how society has changed, viewers are more savvy now and some other factors. That being said, that does not mean you can't find a lot to love here. Yes it may have aged in certain aspects and black and white movies may seem "old" as in prehistoric to some ... but they are not the ones I am talking to here.
So if you have some preconceived notion, if you do like "modern" movies, do not feel offended, when I say this is likely not your cup of tea. We have different tastes and many just watch a few movies ... not in a week, but during the whole year. So to save yourself time and anxiety/boredom or whatever you want to call it: skip this. Everyone else hold on to your horses - you're in for a wild and fun ride.
Especially the beginning is quite amazing. We get to know our main character and how he thinks and feels. We also get to know his future wife - and her family. And we start to feel the gap between them. Not everything is being said, but we can feel that there is friction and that there is a different view on many things here - not just when it comes to a ... "holiday". But there is a reason that is front and center and the title of the movie ... you will know by the end of the movie ... great comedy, with rapid fire dialog and such charisma that it ouzes of and from the screen right into your lap ...
