Product Description

Product Description

It's Saturday morning and Charles is still asleep. He should be on his way to Angus and Laura's wedding! Charles is always going to other people's weddings and he is always late. He's worried that he will never find the right person to marry. Then he meets Carrie and suddenly love is in the air!

Four Weddings and a Funeral is one of the most successful British films ever made. It is a very funny tale of friendship, love and marriage in 1990s England.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this over the vanilla release..., 22 Nov 2005
By oliraceking (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Four Weddings And A Funeral [DVD] [1994] (DVD)
If you're wanting to buy 4 Weddings on DVD, my advice is buy this one. The picture has been remastered to a level which I didn't think was possible when viewing the old release - extremely impressive. Also the sound has been remastered in 5.1, which although doesn't exploit the rear speakers a lot is a DEFINITE improvement over the vanilla.

The extras, too, are impressive. You get an interesting group commentary by director Newell, Producer Kenworthy and writer Curtis. Also included are; 2 documentaries, TV promotions, good deleted scenes etc. There's also the short featurette which appeared on the original DVD - so you're not missing out by upgrading.

Because DVDs can be bought so cheaply nowadays, my advice is to spend the extra pound or two and buy this - it's worth a thousand more than the old release.

5.0 out of 5 stars British Comedy breaks into Hollywood, 4 May 2007
By Jay "The Amazon Reviewer" (Mauritius) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Four Weddings And A Funeral [1994] [DVD] (DVD)
Very funny film with some superb lines. Hugh Grant can be very amusing, and there was a great cameo from Rowan Atkinson as a bumbling, nervous trainee priest who keeps fluffing his lines during one of the weddings. ("Awful wedded wife", or "Holy Goat" for "Holy Ghost"). I also liked David Bower as Charles's deaf brother David, the late Charlotte Coleman as his impudent younger sister Scarlett and Anna Chancellor as his ex-girlfriend Henrietta (also known as Duckface), whose embarrassing emotional incontinence perhaps explains why Charles is so keen to distance himself from his feelings. I was less impressed by Simon Callow as Gareth, loud, extrovert and excessively hearty (like most characters Callow plays).

To sum up, this was a very good film indeed; proof that the British cinema can produce romantic comedies as good as Hollywood at its best.

4.0 out of 5 stars A classic in every way, 8 Aug 2005
By J. Kirkland "jennyk" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Four Weddings And A Funeral [1994] [DVD] (DVD)
To the top notch cast, the humour, the wit the shear class that this film still has, it works on simplicity & is one to watch time and again. For the jokes just keep coming.

Both Hugh Grant & John Hannah gave two of there best performances to date & the chemistry and friendship between all the characters was so endearing.

Well done to all and this is one of the best British films ever and deserves to be!!1
