Armed Marriage: The action-packed romantic comedy comes to Prime Video

the romantic comedy Armed marriage has arrived on Prime Video, bringing Jennifer Lopez to the big screen in the kind of film that the actress and singer always excels at. This time was no different, with Lopez starring alongside Josh Duhamel in a wild, action-packed story.

The big highlight of Armed marriage is Jennifer Lopez, who manages to create a good chemistry on screen with both high-ranking actors, as happens with George Clooney in Irresistible passion and Matthew McConaughey My dream weddingand with more supporting actors, most notably Michael Vartan in The mother-in-law‘, Alex O’Loughlin in Plan B and now with Duhamel inside Armed marriage.

Directed by Jason Moore, the film stars Duhamel as Lopez’s boyfriend. Like a couple whose wedding is interrupted by terrorist pirates who take their guests hostage, the two bicker and banter, with a love-hate relationship that is delightful and effortlessly convincing. While the dialogue isn’t necessarily a highlight, Jennifer Lopez makes things work.

Armed marriage combines two familiar subgenres in a very original way: the remarriage comedy, in which an embittered couple rediscovers their affection after their breakup, and the single-scenario slasher film, in which an ordinary man has to rescue the hostages of a team of armed bandit elite. .

What was supposed to be a wedding in the Philippines in a beautiful tropical setting turns into the backdrop of an action story, with the lead couple doing everything to try and stop the gang of armed and dangerous pirates.

As Lopez and Duhamel begin using machine guns and grenades against their enemies, there’s a new appeal to seeing the tensions between the romantic comedy and thriller genres mixed with the action overlapping. Among the other cast members of the series, Jennifer Coolidge stands out very much and her scenes were perhaps the ones I laughed the most watching the film, as well as the Brazilian actress Sonia Braga, who plays the Brazilian mother of the character of Lopez.

However, not all is positive in this production. There’s an insistence on forcing humor and pop culture references that sometimes end up becoming superfluous. Armed marriage it’s not great, nor a must-see movie, but if you need to kill a few hours or on a sleepless night, Jennifer Lopez is worth seeing running through the jungle in her wedding dress with a grenade in hand.

Armed marriage It is available on Amazon’s streaming platform, Prime Video.
