Tonight, I had the pleasure of watching The Accidental Husband, starring Uma Thurman (The Producers) and Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Supernatural).
The movie begins with Emma (Thurman) giving advice to Patrick’s fiancé, thereby making her reconsider marrying the fireman. Patrick (Morgan) decides to get his revenge by making Emma’s life a living hell, complicating her own engagement. Before both Emma and Patrick realize what’s going on, they find each other falling for one another.
There were many reasons that I find myself really enjoying this movie. For starters, the cast is wonderful. I especially loved the chemistry between Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Uma Thurman. It’s interesting because Thurman’s Emma is more polished and sophisticated whereas Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s Patrick is more laid back and at times, immature. Still, they work wonderfully together!
Another great thing about the movie is just how funny it is and how well everything flows. I can honestly say there wasn’t a scene in the movie I didn’t enjoy. I found The Accidental Husband to be one of the better romantic comedies I’ve seen in a while. While the ending may have been predictable, it still managed to stay fresh.
All in all, I give The Accidental Husband an 8/10. I definitely recommend it for those who love a good romantic comedy!
