It revolves around a fantastical wedding that spirals out of control, showcasing Ferrell and Witherspoon’s comedic chemistry. Critics have pointed out some strengths in the performances, with Ferrell delivering his signature charm, while Witherspoon’s role has been viewed as both delightful and somewhat underutilized.
