05 Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) (bluray) :star::star::star::half: First movie I saw Hugh Grant in and I totally fell for that little boy innocence and cheeky grin. I love the whole layout of this movie, hopping from wedding to wedding with different stories to be had at each. Hugh Grant is made for these type of movies and as we know he's made several, playing the same charming and sometimes befuddled character. I've never been too big of a fan of Andie MacDowell but she was great here as the character who meanders in and out of the various scenarios. This is a quirky and charming story one I'm glad to have in my collection. 06 The Decoy Bride (2011) (Netflix) :star::star::half: Famous Hollywood actress can't get married without attracting a lot of attention from the paparazzi so they devise a plan for the wedding to take place in a remote location, a small out of the way Scottish island. Katie is an island native unlucky in love and she is chosen as the decoy bride in the hope of distracting the press. Wasn't really a fan of this one. The acting was fine, but the script was irritating and lifeless and frankly I was bored for most of it.
