SUMMARY: KISS THE BRIDE is the story of Matt, who goes to a friend's wedding to see if the groom, Ryan, still has homosexual feelings for him, as he had in the past. KISS THE BRIDE contains many, many problematic elements, including depicted homosexual sex, male nudity and very strong crude language.
IN BRIEF:
KISS THE BRIDE is the story of Matt, who goes to a friend's wedding to see if the groom, Ryan, still has homosexual feelings for him, as he had in the past. The movie is basically a homosexual version of MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING. Unsuspecting bride Alex (played by Tori Spelling) befriends old friend Matt and ultimately Ryan has to decide who he wants to be with, his female fiancée or his previous homosexual lover.
Not only is the entire storyline of KISS THE BRIDE offensive, there are also multiple negative elements. No surprise, there is much male nudity with many scenes of the two main characters embracing and kissing. There are also depicted scenes of homosexual sex. There's much foul language and constant dialogue about sex and body parts. During the bachelorette party, there is a male stripper. Alex, the bride-to-be, suggests that on the night before the wedding, the two men should spend the night together to see if her fiancée still has feelings for Matt. It's a twisted storyline where black is white and white is black. Naturally, viewers with biblical faith and values will avoid this movie.
