Review

Martin takes over the Spencer Tracy role from the 1950 classic comedy about a family preparing for their eldest daughter's wedding. Martin, who doesn't attempt to compete with Tracy, gives a very funny performance as the exasperated dad, but the film manages to be only mildly amusing. As with the original, Mom (played endearingly by Keaton) and Dad become overwhelmed by all the arrangements. From the in-laws to the caterers (Short and Wong in offensively gay stereotypes), it's a never-ending calamity which the father of the bride handles with one-liners, pratfalls and humiliation. Ultimately, this Father is only a stand-in for the original. (Sequel: Father of the Bride, Part II)
