Summary: This Weddings A Hoot
Review: A lot has happened in the world of television since the first season of MTV's Real World back in 1992! We now have bachelors, jackasses, survivors, amazing racers, and just about anything you can think of in this world of so-called "reality" TV. Norm Korpi along with his buddy Clint Cowen have produced "The Wedding Video" which spoofs this whole genre and reunites his cast members from the good ol' days of the "Real World".

The basic premise is that Norm is about to be married to Sky (Brien Perry- a real life straight porn star I might add) whom a few of his friends think is a woman and that Norm is straight. Surprise, surprise! Anyhow, Norm's taken the $10,000 his mom has given him, she refuses to attend or accept such a thing, and has hired an amateur videographer (Clint Cowen) to film the event up to the big day. It's a bit slow in the beginning as guests are filmed in their respective hometowns and is a bit chatty, and it isn't until they all arrive in L.A. that things begin to pick up. The "Real World" cast is reunited, for those of you who forgot, Julie Oliver, Heather B., Rachel Campos, Syrus Yarbrough, and so forth. Fans of the show will surely get a kick out of it, but if you've never seen any of them before, the one who steals the show is Heather B. Funny and with an attitude she comes across as the most natural and "real" of the bunch. But what is real and what is not? With plenty of backstabbing, bickering and mayhem, it's all caught on tape for us to see, even when the cameraman tells certain guests he's not filming. He's so sneaky! Capturing everything from the girls fighting, a wild bachelor party, a secret from Sky's past and just about everything in between it's one bumpy ride. Meanwhile, poor ol' Norm is totally oblivious to anything and everything that is going on around him. Not all of it works, the German dj, the homophobic wedding planners, and the girl who may or not be with Sky, but for the most part it's a good goof. But what really makes the film is the final few minutes where we actually see the "wedding video" and what Norm really thinks of the whole reality scene and what is really captured. The ending makes it work and I'm glad I attended this skewered wedding! Only true "reality freaks" and fans of the "Real World" will probably get a kick out of it otherwise you "non believers" may be bored and not get the "joke".

The DVD also includes interviews with the cast, an enlightening commentary from Norm and Clint, and a handful of outtakes.

Review: I can't say enough about this movie, it is too funny for words. Simply amazing work, and I agree with most of the other reviewers that Heather B. was the queen of the show. But EVERYONE is great in this movie, and the way they make fun of The Real World, themselves, and reality tv in the process...it is just genius.

I can't wait to get my copy in the mail, I have been waiting a year for this movie!

If you are tired of hearing the same old stuff on here, then take this into consideration, hopefully it will make an impact on you: I would have paid $100 for a DVD copy of this movie, THAT is how much I LOVE it.

Review: I didn't like the cast on the Real World and don't like them in the surreal world either. Norm should've spent more time on the script. He had a good idea but just didn't pull it off. Had my finger on FF the whole time.
I don't know what film the rest of you watched but....

Summary: Heather B. Rocks! I can't believe this isn't in Theaters.
Review: I saw this at a film festival in Tampa Florida. Heather B. is the funniest thing I have ever seen. This movie is a classic comedy of errors. Just when you think nothing else can go wrong with the weirdest wedding on earth-- you get hit with something even more outlandishly funny. By the end I was in stiches. The film sucessfully delivered several really smart messages cloaked in a trojan horse of comedy. Very, very good.

Review: RENT THIS FIRST! Are all those posts Norm and Clints? This was absolutely dreadful! Heather B was the only funny and natural thing about the movie. The rest were boring and lame if you ask me. It was so not funny or even a good parody. Blechh! Put this in the discount bin where it belongs. I'll give it a couple of stars as credit towards what they were trying to accomplish and the extras.

Summary: A fantastic comedy, a must see!!!
Review: While all the Derby festivities were taking place, I was at the local preview of The Wedding Video. Everything was there, the Red carpet, popcorn, burgers, and a great film. Norman Korpi, in his directoral debut The Wedding Video, shows the brilliance of a young talent who just blossomed. Heather B. steals the show with her performance, and for all of the stars of this film, bravo! On the surface, this movie is just plain funny. Looking further and deeper, you'll find the reality of reality TV. Enjoy, because I did.
