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.
