According to reviews on Rotten Tomatoes , it might not be an Oscar-winner, but it’s a solid "romp" for fans of the genre. It’s short, fun, and exactly what you expect from a J.Lo rom-com with a tactical twist. Amazon Prime Video. Shotgun Wedding (2022) - IMDb
It’s a "hard R-rated adult comedy" mixed with "soft PG-13 rom-com" energy. It’s lighthearted, despite the "terrorist-style peril" and occasional grisly image. Final Verdict: 7/10
Jennifer Coolidge is the MVP here, delivering her signature comedic timing that reviewers from IMDb highlight as a major reason to watch.
The story follows Darcy (Lopez) and Tom (Duhamel), a couple who have gathered their opinionated families—including a scene-stealing Jennifer Coolidge as the groom’s mother—at a luxury resort in the Philippines. Just as the couple starts getting cold feet, the entire wedding party is taken hostage by pirates.
What follows is a frantic, hilarious scramble as the bride and groom must save their families without killing each other first. Why It Works (and Why It Doesn’t)
