I was going to let this one go but then saw that all the reviews for it were insanely positive.

License to Wed features Moore as a bride-to-be who attends a wedding preparation course with her fiance (John Krasinksi) led by a deranged preacher (Robin Williams) whose sole purpose is to destroy their relationship, cancel their marriage plans, and make them hate each other. Why? That’s a damn good question! His back-assword reasoning is if they get back together after this then they are truly meant to be together?! So let me get this straight, the film is about a minister who destroys peoples lives and happiness because he thinks it might (he has no idea if they will survive) improve their relationship? This is one of the stupidest ideas for a movie EVER! The stupidity of the plot is only outdone by the preposterous ending where the characters thank the priest for trying to destroy their lives! Aside from the usual Williams zaniness, which does deliver one or two laughs, there is nothing here but disaster and pain (for the audience, that is).
