Love And Mary

July 29, 2008 · Print This Article

There is something about Mary that reminds me of the actress Jaime Pressley. They look alike to me and even sound a like. But anyway Mary is a baker and makes the most delectable desserts that will make your mouth water just looking at their scrumptious contents. I have a huge sweet tooth so I was drooling at all those cakes and pies. I would of loved to have been her partner but I would end up a big fat mess.

Mary’s fiancée’ Jake seems to be allergic to sweets and breaks out in hives every time he is near them. He always ends up soaking in an oatmeal bath to stop the itching. Since he is all broken out his twin brother Brent travels with Mary to her hometown to visit her close knit family all the while pretending to be Jake. Will he be able to fool everyone into believing he is Jake?

This movie was cute and definitely a date movie. Her quirky family grows on you and you might even be disappointed when it’s over since you would love to see some more of their crazy shenanigans. Papi was my favorite, he loves his grand daughter with all of his heart and wants nothing more than for her to be healthy and happy. I loved the part where they went to the club to see her brother play and for her engagement party…cracked me up!

Watching you kind of wish that Mary and Brent would get together instead since they seem to be more suited to each other. They have a lot of the same interests and favorite movies. Jake sits home wallowing in his itchiness becoming more jealous with each phone call he makes to Mary. Will every thing work out as planned? Or will this whole charade fall apart at the seems?
