The Knot (2012)

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Good movie but grossly overrated

Fresh and Exciting

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I will not write about the movie, many others did it before. I only write this review to help others make a decision whether to watch or not. If you want a traditional Hollywood (predictable, sugar-sweet) movie in this genre, probably it's nothing for you. It is absolutely nothing stunning or smashing about this movie but it's much better than the 1-3 point reviews. Then again I agree with one reviewer that some review are false or absolutely ridiculous, this movie is NOT 10 or even 9, maybe if you never so a movie before and are exalted about the story and think it's a documentary like some people thought about "The X files" if not - then not! But still some funny moments with some good laughs. I rated 6 to get it little higher but actually it's a very strong 5, for me 5,5 :-) I recommend you to watch it, why? It's better than most Hollywood productions that are 100% more predictable. Thanks for reading!

Okay, so six reviews of this movie...all written within a day of each other, all written in the same voice, and all the reviewers have only one review to their names. If these "glowing" reviews aren't enough to make you suspicious, let me be quite clear. This movie is TERRIBLE. It's basically a series of gross-out jokes, ridiculous injuries and tired clichés that could have been written by a group of high schoolers. In fact the entire film has a very amateurish feel to it, which makes it impossible to connect with any of the very thin storyline. Mena Suvari must owe someone in England a big favor, and hopefully this erased her debt, because even this poor excuse for a comedy is far out of her league (which is saying a lot considering she was in American Pie). This "rom com" is not romantic, not funny and really not worth your time.

Thoroughly enjoyed Skys preview screening of The Knot Film on 02/10/12!! You guys did good! Plenty of LOL moments definitely theBritish Rom com of the year!! I thought this was a bit of a different direction for Noel Clarke and i wasn't too sure how this would come together, but i am very pleased to say that this film did NOT disappoint in anyway! Cleverly written and well cast there were no awkward moments. Talulah Riley plays the bride to be very well and has some cracking bridesmaids played by none other than the beautiful and talented Mena Suvari, Rhoda Montemayor who steals the show as bridesmaid Anisha and also the lovely Louise Dylan. Lets not forget the real men in the film Noel Clarke, Davie Fairbanks, Mathew McNulty, Jason Maza, Brett Goldstine who i think gave class A performances!!Definitely Britains own Hangover/Bridesmaids Well done to everyone involved in making this cracker! #IDO Make sure if you see one Rom com this year this should be it!

I'm an 18 year old teen journalist so here's a young perspective! I thought it was awesome!The Knot is a fun-filled film full of funny moments and excellent British cinematography. Throughout the movie two characters (a couple who are good friends of the bride and groom) film the entire wedding. I particularly liked this element as this is exactly what our generation is like! We're constantly capturing moments, whether that be through Instagram or making Youtube videos and sharing it on Facebook and Twitter. It was relevant, memorable and oozed modern humour - Noel Clarke's and Brett Goldstein's delivery was jokes!Great choice of cast, an eclectic mix of British talent joined by Hollywood star Mena Suvari - names both older and younger audiences are familiar with/can relate to.I went to two screenings, one packed with an industry audience the other was a public screening. Both crowds showed their enjoyment, there was lots of laughter and overall a positive vibe.I'd recommend it to my college mates, couples and anyone who fancies a good fun night out!
