Hallmark has convinced me that a wedding is the final obstacle before marriage.
This movie actually shows that blending a family can be difficult. Hallmark usually has the kids become instant friends and accept the stepparent before the original parent does.
It's hard to sympathize with teenage angst. Erin spent a lot of time sulking about a comment her dad made. And her tantrum when her friend got busted was totally out of line.
Griffin retreads the first movie's plot of him not wanting his dad to get married.
Did Boone really not think to text his fiancé or one of the kids that he had to go deal with a highway accident? Given how quickly his fiance forgives him, I wonder what the point of that sequence was.
I've not read the books, but the redhead felt like a shoehorned cameo in the first movie. In the second, her subplot is so unrelated to the blended family, that it should have just been its own movie.
