Synopsis
Dev Patel stars as a mysterious British Muslim who journeys from London to Pakistan in order to kidnap a bride at her wedding. But it's okay - what seems like a crime (and, OK, to be fair is definitely a crime) was orchestrated by the bride’s secret lover, so that her arranged marriage could be avoided and they might be reunited.
Naturally things don’t go entirely to plan. One the “wedding guest” has done his work, the pair still has to get from Pakistan to India. Their journey is dangerous, and the potential for a blossoming attraction between the two could be their biggest problem.

This movie DELIVERS if you're looking for a movie with no fewer than five scenes of two characters lying in a bed together as one of the characters stares at the other one's sleeping form until the one doing the staring finally closes their eyes and turns over and the one…

annya 🦇Feb 27, 2019As a spare and sexy thriller, Michael Winterbottom’s “The Wedding Guest” is far too undercooked; there’s little flavor, and even less to chew on. As an audition for its star to be the next James Bond, however, this aimless Dev Patel vehicle is virtually perfect. Sure, there…

Patel excels as a smouldering, enigmatic antihero who gradually begins to drop his defences; Apte might be even better as the duplicitous femme fatale.
