The Wedding Ringer

Kevin Hart said before the release of the Wedding Ringer that the film was his best work yet and after watching it I agree with him. Hart shows that he is an excellent leading man in a comedy film. Josh Gad is also great, I think that Hart and Gad may be sustainable comedy stars for years to come. The movie is very funny but its also a heartwarming movie that make you realize how much you appreciate the friends in your own life. The Wedding Ringer is what you get when to add I Love You, Man and Wedding Crashers and the result is a film that will likely headline the best comedies of 2015 and I think it beats Hart's other release in 2015, Get Hard.

While the premise is pretty original, the movie overall follows a lot of the buddy comedy tropes and is fairly predictable. It is still pretty enjoyable, benefiting from good acting, writing, and directing. I am 50/50 on Kevin Hart: sometimes I find his shtick annoying, sometimes I think it works great. Thankfully in this case, it's the latter.
