Runaway Bride (1999)
Stay and watch this film

Following up on their huge romantic hit "Pretty Woman," Richard Gere, Julia Roberts, Hector Elizondo and director Garry Marshall reteam to make yet another romantic comedy called "Runaway Bride."

Neither the director nor the original actors have lost a step since "Pretty Woman." Gere, Roberts and Elizondo teamed up with newcomers Joan Cusack and Rita Wilson as they never skipped a beat in their performances. The cast performed with such perfection it seemed like they were performing as it happened for the first time. I commend the casting director and producer for putting together an excellent cast that really gelled and had chemistry that was like magic.

I must say that "Runaway Bride" was much more charming than "Pretty Woman." I still enjoyed "Pretty Woman" but the updated version had a certain charm and a twist that was lacking in the first film.

I can't say what the twist is without giving away too much, you'll just have to see it to find out.

This was a cute film with a unique way of telling a plot that seems to have been done before on the silver screen.
