I find reviewing films to an extremely personal and opinionated thing to do, there will always be someone that disagrees with what you think and how you view or perceive a particular character, storyline or scene. So please, take from this what you will, these are my thoughts and feelings nothing more nothing less.
'I Do' follows the story of an English man in New York who is forced to marry his best friend in order to stay in the country. The film covers issues such as gay marriage and equal rights without being over powering and in your face. There is so much more to this than being another 'gay film' there is a heartwarming complexity to the protagonist of the story and his relationships with his friends, family and new love.
The film staring David W. Ross, Maurice Compte, Alicia Witt and Jamie-Lynn Sigler amongst others is beautifully shot with comedic moments as well as some real tear jerking issues. It is an inoffensive look at love and issues surrounding couples including same sex relationships. It is a film I would happily watch again and would suggest others give it a go.
