Samoan Wedding (2006). 1h 37m | Not Rated

“I loved this movie – you really feel the friendship amongst these guys – itu0026#39;s not a perfect movie in the u0026quot;Three Act Structure/Everyone has an arc wayu0026quot; – but itu0026#39;s funny and real and the guys are easy to relate to – and itu0026#39;s ultimately emotional. I understand why itu0026#39;s a big hit in NZ. I think the actors were all in a comedy troupe together which explains their chemistry. Itu0026#39;s interesting that the Samoan culture in NZ seems to be akin to the black/hip-hop culture in the States – they even have their version of the u0026quot;wiggeru0026quot;. I also like that the flick is fairly natural – not to broad like a lot of comedies. It was also interesting to learn more about the Samoan community – they werenu0026#39;t too heavy handed with the racial angle though. It reminded me a bit of a cross between Wedding Crashers and Diners. Seems ripe for a Yank remake.”
