What critics said
Critics broadly viewed the film as a poorly conceived, lowbrow time-loop farce whose humor failed to justify its premise.
What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
Rob Anderson is forced to relive the same nerve-wracking wedding-day hours over and over.
The premise repeatedly exposes Rob to humiliating wedding-day situations, including his recurring nakedness.
Rob's nervousness about finally marrying Megan drives the repeated attempts to get the ceremony and surrounding events right.
The magic elevator and unexplained time loop create an intentionally unrealistic framework for broad humor.
