Patrick Dempsey makes his full transition to romantic-comedy stardom in Made of Honor, flashing those winning dimples and twinkly baby blues to full fetching effect. The camera truly loves him, and his considerable affable charm calls to mind early Hugh Grant, winsome even in utter confusion. Dempsey plays Tom, a nice guy but a serial dater with a girlfriend in every zip code of New York; Michelle Monaghan is Hannah, Tom's BFF since college, who's decided she wants marriage and family. When she becomes unexpectedly engaged to Colin (Journeyman's Kevin McKidd, rather McDreamy himself), Tom realizes what the viewer's known all along--that Hannah is in fact his dream woman. It's When Harry Met Sally... meets My Best Friend's Wedding--but thankfully, Dempsey's Tom is far more sympathetic than Julia Roberts' snide schemer. The plot isn't exactly full of surprises, but the cast--and their amazing chemistry--are so winning that the film makes for the perfect date movie. Not only are all three leads charming in their own way, but the rich cinematography manages to make both Manhattan and the Scottish countryside look like glorious edens, one urban, one windswept. Monaghan is a revelation, quietly lovely as a young Carla Bruni, but with a flinty gumption that makes her all the more appealing. The supporting cast is rich, too, especially Sydney Pollack as Tom's serially marrying dad. (At his dad's fifth--or is it sixth?--wedding, Tom's new arm-candy "stepmom" gets tipsy and overly affectionate with guests as her new husband looks on fondly: "Ah... drunk as the night I first met her.") But at the core of the film are its big heart, and the connection between Tom and Hannah, deep and wide whether they end up just best friends or more. And the delight for viewers is knowing they'll be just as glowy either way.-- A.T. Hurley

Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Moderately entertaining and amusing romantic comedy

As romantic comedies go, this is definately one of the more amusing that I have seen over the past year or so. Patrick Dempsey proves that he can handle a very different character to "McDreamy" (Doctor Jonathan Shepherd) from "Gray's Anatomy" and Michelle Monahan is beautiful and charming as the heroine.

The film begins with a student party, during which Tom, (Dempsey) a senior year student who has seduced half the female students at the University, meets a girl called Hannah ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - NICE MOVIE, BUT HAD TO BUY AT TARGET
If you're into RomCom, "Made of Honor" is Made to Order for you.Patrick Dempsey encores his reluctant bachelor bit from "Enchanted," and Michelle Monaghan is beautiful and charming as "THE girl."The whole thing is entirely predictable from the outset, but it's a pleasant journey getting there.The Amazon seller advertised as Just Launched, and, since her price was right, I wanted to help get her started in the biz.But when no DVD arrived at the outer delivery date, three emails of inquiry were ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Cute Movie
Its a cute movie, kind of the male version of my best friends wedding...not the best movie in the world though but funny.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Cute
No surprises and it's not going to win an Oscar.This is predictable, light hearted fun little romantic comedy.This is a good choice if you want a few laughs, not much thinking and to be left with happy feelings.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - One of the worst ever!!!
It's such a shame that I have to give it even 1 star.Luckily my cable provider had it for free.I am SOOOOO glad that I didn't pay any money for it.

Things that bothered me:The guys wouldn't play basketball with the geeky skinny guy.The super tall bridesmaid, the short fat bridemaid and then the beautiful bridemaid with the bad attitude.

Getting a root canal at the dentist was more fun than watching this movie.
