A competently conceived, professionally made movie about real people that holds your interest and makes you think about something besides vampires, zombies and idiot jokes is as hard to find in the middle of summer as free ice cream. A friendly, heartfelt little movie called My Mother’s Wedding is a pleasant exception. It’s about three sisters who reluctantly return to their childhood home in the British countryside to be bridesmaids in their widowed mother’s third wedding. The sisters, with their own problems and agendas, are Georgina (Emily Beecham), the youngest and a hard-working hospital nurse; Victoria (gorgeous Sienna Miller), who has made quite a name for herself as an actress in America; and Katherine (Scarlett Johansson), the eldest, who played a strong role in the upbringing of her two sisters, who resent her for it. Their mother is glamorous Diana, played by still-beautiful Kristin Scott Thomas, who is continually baffled by her assorted children, grandchildren and female family friends, not to mention their various fathers and lovers, all of whom have disappointed her in different ways through the years. -Observer

““My Mother’s Wedding” neatly juxtaposes its subplots with the joyous event that serves as its centerpiece. The wedding allows Scott Thomas to bring in several minor characters for an effective moment or two.”-Boston Globe
