Le père de la mariée

The biggest problem with remakes is the lack of originality in changing changing the title and seeing if anyone noticed the story they borrowed from.

This Andy Garcia lead movie is unique enough from the original and Steve Martin remakes to make the case of changing the title to something more original.

I'm a big Andy Garcia, he's always superb. This is the second time I've seen this great actor have you work with an incompetent lead actress, Sophia Coppola being the first, and now Gloria Estefan. The lack of chemistry between him and Estefan is not his fault- she did not seem to connect to the character in general.

Had this movies had an original title, it would probably have had better reviews, but also would not be the money maker it will be because it's associated with Father Of The Bride. Divorced from the title, it works pretty well on its own as a fun and lite comedy/drama.
