License to Wed follows newly engaged Ben Murphy (John Krasinski) and his fiancée, Sadie Jones (Mandy Moore), in their quest to live happily ever after. The problem is that Sadie's family church, St. Augustine's, is run by Reverend Frank (Robin Williams), who won't bless Ben and Sadie's union until they pass his patented, "foolproof" marriage-prep course. Consisting of outrageous classes, outlandish homework assignments and some outright invasion of privacy, Reverend Frank's rigorous curriculum puts Ben and Sadie's relationship to the test. Forget happily ever after—do they even have what it takes to make it to the altar?
This was a cutesy date movie with some pretty good laughs. It's also totally predictable and one of those if you see the commercial - you see the movie type films. Robin Williams is his usual funny one liner type self, but the guy that really makes this movie for me is John Krasinski. Krasinski is best know for his role of Jim on The Office. People, if you are not watching this show on a weekly basis - you truly are missing out on the funniest thing on television. Back to the movie . . . . . he brings the same facial humor from The Office to this film and it really cracks me up. Half of the big laughs were based on the look on his face as he reacts to things. The man is a budding physical comedy genius.
I would recommend people checking this one out. It's not a must see by any means, but it's worth seeing if you want to.
