WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

The two are due to be married on-stage in front of millions of viewers worldwide, but when Kat discovers that Bastian has been cheating on her at the last minute, she impulsively decides to marry someone in the audience instead. She ends up choosing Charlie Gilbert (Wilson), a mild-mannered math teacher dragged to the concert by his daughter (Coleman), and the two are spontaneously wed in front of everyone – but when the dust starts to settle, the impulsive decision soon blossoms into true romance…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Jennifer Lopez produces and stars in this eye-catching romantic-comedy which, despite its rather barmy premise, contains plenty of winning charm between Lopez and co-star Owen Wilson.
