Very well executed

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

I caught this movie on the TV channel sky Valentine without knowing anything about it except this brief synopsis "A charming British comedy starring Martin Freeman and Olivia Colman about three couples competing for "most original wedding of the year". Based on the fact that I like Freeman and Coleman I decided to give it a go.Plot In A Paragraph: Three couples, Sam and Matt (Jessica Stevenson and Martin Freeman), Isabelle and Josef (Meredith MacNeill and Stephen Mangan) and Joanna and Michael (Olivia Colman and Robert Webb) all compete to win a magazine competition for 'The Most Original Wedding' in order to win a house. I started to watch this, and flicked on here about fifteen minutes in, at which point I found out Colman and Webb were told by the filmmakers, that their nude scenes would be pixelated, and only found out they weren't at a screening of the movie. I decided to turn it off out of respect for Colman.

Three young couples vie to win a magazine contest by holding their 'themed' weddings in public, with the winners being awarded a first prize of a brand new home. Step forward the three couples: nudists Michael and Joanna; tennis-mad Josef and Meredith, and Hollywood musical fans Matt and Samantha.The fun comes for us as as viewers as we join the fly-on the wall documentary team that follows all three couples as the wedding organisers and their respective families try to get the weddings together in time for the contest.This is a showcase of modern British comedy talent. Jimmy Carr, Felicity Montagu, Stephen Mangan, Martin Freeman, Jessica Stevenson and Alison Steadman all do their bit. But the real stars are the lesser known Vincent Franklin and Jason Watkins as the camp wedding organisers who won't let anything get in the way of the couples' dream day.This is an enjoyable little film, with a nice basic idea, littered with lots of good performances. It is 'smile' humour, rather than 'laugh out loud' stuff. But the smiles are here a-plenty. It is also surprisingly moving at times as well, and refreshingly free of cynicism. If at times you doubt the sincerity of some of those involved, the ending leaves you on a high.'Confetti' is not brilliant or ground-breaking, but it will make you smile. And that's not such a bad recommendation, is it?

This Film has an ass kicking humor and excellent crew cast.Don't Miss out this all time of totally excellent opportunity of humor, and stomach age.. ;)The story itself is nothing to get exited about but it is the humor and the characters that is worth seeing.Don't miss out, just run along down to the nearest store and buy it don't go to the movies, too much noise from all the other laughing people. ;)Miss a little bit more comedy scenes, but it is still enough, but why stop there.. hahaha

Well its a typical British movie. That being its pretty poor. What is it with British films and British filmmakers. I can't remember the last decent British film. Its not even funny. The only reason to watch this movie is Jessica Stephenson. But when other reviewers mentioned comic talents in this movie, there isn't any. Martin Freeman, from Office fame, was not funny in the office. He was the unfunny one where as the main comic talent from the Office was obviously Ricky Gervais. The others mentioned are from poor comedy shows on British TV and when you add that to an unfunny script you have a typically unfunny British film. The other actors I recognised were bit part players from the great Alan Partridge series. Them being the guy who played DAN from the 2nd series and Lynn, Alans much maligned PA. So this film. As a comedy, its unfunny. If your expecting a great comedy, forget it!
