**

I personally didn't mind the home-movie dusting this film gives the atmosphere. It's so realistic it makes you wonder sometimes... but it can also get a little overbearing too, if you're not in the mood for watching creativity...

Hathaway is the annoying, but somehow utterly endearing rehab who is allowed an excuse for a weekend in to attend her sisters (her complete opposite in ALL ways) wedding. The events that unfold and the ending are nicely looped and tied.

The acting is superb. Hathaway not only pulls off the character well, but makes the watcher forget her usual on screen charisma... she really is a pain in this movie, and she makes you feel it.

It was a joy to watch this...

Rate: 7/10
