Movie review: License to Wed
“License to Wed” takes an interesting premise, a marriage-prep course, and raises the stakes. Unfortunately, the film feels removed from reality — the difficulties feel forced and lack authenticity.
What does feel real is the chemistry between (Mandy) Moore and (John) Krasinski. Watching “Wed,” one wishes the pair were cast in another, wittier comedy.
Despite the best efforts of the leads, “License to Wed” never quite makes it over the threshold.

Michael Bay discusses nuts and bolts of "Transformers"
Bay said he wanted to make a “Transformers” film that would appeal to people who didn’t grow up with the characters.
“I actually think that because I wasn’t a fan, I think makes it more accessible to other people, does that make sense?,” he said. “(Decepticon leader) Megatron was a gun, and I’m like, ‘I don’t get that,’ and I did get a lot of flak from fans on the ‘net, like, ‘Michael Bay, you wrecked my childhood. … We’re going to protest his office.’ They protested my old office apparently.”
