A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Choose by the wife (who often judges a book by its cover) - she thought it was a chick flick, was it? Almost married wasn't the soppy crass movie I had thought it was going to be - but that's what happens when you don't read up on it first :)To be honest all this has really to do with getting married is how (maybe) your LAD is perceived to handle the lead up to the big day when he has been on a stag night he cannot remember.A lot of drinking swearing and stupid decisions from the lads mixed with some heart felt moments from Kyle (Phillip McGinley)& Jarvis (Mark Stobbart) "especially in Kyle's garage" You are drawn in to Kyle's pain from the very start - "Ouch that must have hurt"... From here you join Kyle on is (WTF happened) journey accompanied by best mate Jarvis - now pay attention during the movie or the movie will end with you saying ..Eh.. (I did say there is a twist) Not the best movie out there but not bad - It's worth a watch...ME

Almost Married perfectly depicts "young" British culture with its hilarious yet disastrous consequences. Although the protagonist was male, I found myself laughing hysterically and connecting with Kyle as I followed his journey of desperation to uncover the truth related to that fateful night. The young British cast only added to the credibility of the film and their on screen chemistry helped me (and each member of the audience no doubt) relate to the characters and their story.The highlight of this comedy is that it does not push into the absurd - an irritating tactic used in so many other British comedies for a cheap laugh. It refines itself by touching on the darker moments within relationships and the boundaries of trust, whilst still retaining a decent level of humour.Definitely a film I'd highly recommend and I look forward to seeing what else the talented Ben Cookson has up his sleeve!

Sitting in the cinema, I very much enjoyed laughing out loud many times during the film. There aren't many films that I would say that about; this is truly one of them.It's not just a comedy; there is good depth to the story and the characters, with some darker moments and very serious challenges to deal with. The film is looking at male and female differing attitudes towards sex, relationships, truth and honesty. What does happen on a stag do? This is one humorous take on it.There are some nice twists to keep you thinking. In the end the story is left a little open for the audience to make up there own mind, which works well.All in all is worth watching.

It takes a lot to make me laugh out loud - but I did during 'Almost Married' - from start to finish.I am a bit squeamish when it comes to the sort of subject matter handled (with a degree of sensitivity amongst all the jokes) in this film, but the brilliant dialogue and nuances between the characters meant that I got so involved with the storyline that nothing seemed gratuitous or jarred in any way.As a northerner who now finds herself residing in The Big Smoke, it was particularly enjoyable for me to see the perfect pub and working men's club - type interiors from my homeland :)Highly recommended.
