 Four Weddings and a Funeral Four Weddings and a Funeral Quote: Four Weddings and a Funeral is a 1994 British romantic comedy film directed by Mike Newell. It was the first of several films by screenwriter Richard Curtis to feature Hugh Grant. The film was an unexpected success, becoming the highest-grossing British film in cinema history at the time, with worldwide box office in excess of $245.7 million, and receiving an Academy Award for Best Picture nomination.

Love it, if I could vote I would give it an A 
This is one of the few non-childrens movies that I don't mind watching over and over.

Loved it too. Very funny with awesome characters. I wished there would have been a bit more about Scott-Thomas and Grant relationship but that's just a minor complaint. A

Re: Four Weddings and a Funeral FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL - 8/10 (A-)
You know, I started it and watched maybe 10-15 minutes, but then stopped it because I was tired. I wasn't all that impressed with it at the time so I almost didn't end up watching the rest. Thankfully I did though because this was a very funny, very charming movie. I loved it! I loved the characters and would love to have a circle of friends like them. Kristin Scott Thomas was especially awesome. And the speech at the funeral was very moving. The only real weak link was MacDowell. I liked her well enough, but there were times when her acting was off.
A very fun movie, with quite a few laugh-out-loud moments. The "awful wedded wife" line was hilarious. This was much better, and funnier, than the disappointing "Death at a Funeral."

Re: Four Weddings and a Funeral Great film... except for Andie MacDowell. At no point did I believe that Hugh Grant (or anyone, really) would fall in love with her. Trust the American actress to nearly ruin a British film.

Re: Four Weddings and a Funeral Yeah, this film is perhaps the most vivid example of a fantastic film with a glaring weak link (Andie MacDowell, of course).
