Plot Summary: "License to Wed" follows newly engaged Ben Murphy (John Krasinski) and his fiancée, Sadie Jones (Mandy Moore), in their quest to live happily ever after. The
problem is that Sadie's family church, St. Augustine's, is run by Reverend Frank
(Robin Williams), who won't bless Ben and Sadie's union until they pass his patented, "foolproof" marriage-prep
course. Consisting of outrageous classes, outlandish homework assignments and
some outright invasion of privacy, Reverend Frank's rigorous curriculum puts
Ben and Sadie's relationship to the test. Forget happily ever after—do
they even have what it takes to make it to the altar?— More here

No surprises, but still a sweet
romantic comedy
Amy Biancolli
Houston Chronicle
Krasinski affirms that he can carry more than a desk job on The Office,
and Moore plays straight gal in a film that improves, at least, on
her last role in the ugh-inducing Because I Said So. License to Wed
doesn't fail her this time.
Warner Bros. should see its theatrical stay quickly annulled.
Brian Lowry
Variety
Unleashing Robin Williams in the least flattering possible manner,
License to Wed squanders the modest chemistry between its appealing
central couple uniting its elements in an astonishingly flat romantic
comedy.
This "License" should
expire a week after opening.
Kirk Honeycutt
Hollywood Reporter
Comedies don't get much lamer than License to Wed. Working from
a flawed premise with characters lacking credibility and plot turns
more moronic than funny, the movie flatlines in about five minutes.
