AND MRS (2024): The Things I Liked…

And Mrs is a story about Gemma (Aisling Bea), a reluctant bride-to-be’s seemingly ill-advised decision to marry her husband-to-be, even though he’s no longer alive.  

Directed by Daniel Reisinger, And Mrs has some amusing moments/quips. However, I had to try hard not to reach for my phone at points because it’s not the most charming and engaging comedy of this kind.

I enjoyed a couple of scenes and how Gemma’s story is eventually wrapped up. What I unfortunately cannot say is that the overall experience felt worthwhile. A reality not helped by Billie Lourd’s often awkward and sadly annoying performance.

My favourite thing about And Mrs, which also stars Colin Hanks and Susan Wokoma is how it’s concluded and, the London, England setting. The latter is not exactly the best compliment a movie can get. Still, give it a chance if your curiosity is strong enough. You may have more fun than I did.

Happy Film Loving,
