Just slightly over absolutely boring. I had a hard time keeping my eyes open. Mandy Moore's acting just so "her".
Mandy and John make a real sweet couple.The kid was also cute.The movie could have been funnier with more jokes.
.... wow, wut, I can't believe so many people rated this movie positively. Wtf, you guys.
The license for this movie should have been revoked before it came out. PEWW! This was one inane movie with inane jokes and dialogue and a boring story line that just doesn't work.

This was one inane movie with inane jokes and dialogue and a boring story line that just doesn't work. This movie was absolutely inane. Divorce anyone? Marriage counselling should be left to the professionals and the guy who wrote this certainly isn't.
Fair! Given the talent in front of the camera, its just a pity there wasn't a little bit more talent on the other side of the camera (script, direction, editing, etc.)
I was pleasantly surprised by this and enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. Williams is hilarious.

No obstante, la pelicula como tal es medio aburrida y peor cuando tienen a Mandy Moore. Lo mejor es que utilizan la religion de forma jocosa para que uno vea lo ironico que pueden ser las doctrinas. No voy muy a tono con las pelÃculas romanticonas, pero la diversión es lo que ucenta. No es una pelÃcula que sea santa de mi devoción, pero creo que es bastante comica y divertida para poder verla en familia y en pareja. Si estas solo, mejor ve otro tipo de pelÃcula.
Una comedia ligera basada en relaciones personales... como si nos faltara alguna... pero bueno, como dije, ligera, comica, linda... y cualquier caracteristica que la lleve a esa mediocridad de "No malgaste mi tiempo viendola, pero la olvidare mientra...

Critic Reviews
If for any reason your wife or girlfriend - or both - try to drag you to this thing, break up with them instead. It would be less painful.full review
Like some weddings, License to Wed is a long sit and a bland buffet.full review
Forget about Saw, Hostel and all the other films in the new, notorious torture-porn genre. If you're looking for a really sick movie, check out License to Wed.full review
There's bad, there's awful and there's horrible, and then somewhere beyond that, in its own Kingdom of Lousy -- where all the milk curdles and the jokes aren't funny -- is License to Wed.full review
The movie is plodding, predictable, formulaic and, worst of all, not funny.full review
The story ends with a sentimental clunk. To say the picture isn't funny is putting it mildly. It isn't tolerable.full review
It is only the latest attempt by a Hollywood studio to pander to prurience and piety in a single gesture, and to avoid giving offense by treating all possible factions of the public equally, which is to say like idiots.
Krasinski affirms that he can carry more than a desk job on The Office, and Moore plays straight gal in a film that improves, at least, on her last role in the ugh-inducing Because I Said So. License to Wed doesn't fail her this time.full review
