I did..."I do...I did"

so, a couple gets married. they are madly in love. on the way to their honeymoon they get in a car accident. the bride is now in a coma. from the get go, the groom is the scapegoat in which everybody blames for whatever happens to his lovely bride. one year passes as evidenced by a calender montage. marcus (the groom) has maxed out his credit cards and has no other option but to take her off life support. at this point i thought the movie was going to go in the direction of making a comment about our screwed up medical system. after all marcus says to the doctor in passing, "this medical system sucks." however, the plot which unfolds after that is so absurd that there is no way to predict it. its not a good kind of unpredictable either. bad writing, bad directing, bad production values, bad acting aside this is the most fun i've had in a long time watching a bad movie. all the characters are either shallow, stupid, mean spirited or all of those things. it is never clear who the protagonist is. is it the bride who suddenly woke up from her coma only to find that marcus married and knocked up a white girl? is it marcus who professed his undying love for his coma bride only to remarry after he thought she was dead? or is the pregnant new bride who graciously lets coma girl stay at her house only to take her conniving abuse? the answer: it doesn't matter. nothing could've saved this movie. it is a freak of cinema nature. therefore, enjoy the extreme badness. i did...do.
