Review of Runaway Bride

Runaway Bride (1999)
7/10
This sequel is better than the first...
8 November 1999
OK, so "Runaway Bride" is no direct sequel to "Pretty Woman", but still it's the same team that brought us the latter. And, let's just say that the saying 'never change a winning team' fits the bill for what this movie's concerned. I thought it was very good. Very good indeed. I liked "Pretty Woman", but "Runaway Bride" is actually better. Cause as the romantic part of the story has been kept intact, the comedy part is funnier than "Pretty Woman". The only objection I have, is the the very last part of the movie. From the scene in the church when Roberts and Gere is getting married, and Robert's character for the fourth time runs away, the story seem a little too constructed and prolonged. They could have ended it at the church after my opinion. But that is just a minor problem, and I won't let it change my opinion about "Runaway Bride" being an absolutely good movie! And I can't think of any actors that has that special chemistry which Roberts and Gere in fact has. Not even Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan can match it...
