The Wedding Banquet

Movie 2025 103 min M Comedy, Romance, Drama
AMU 16+ * Quality ★★★☆☆

Our take

The Wedding Banquet is an R-rated romantic comedy about a green-card marriage plan that spirals into a lavish family wedding. Expect frequent strong language, drinking scenes, emotional family conflict, and LGBTQ+ relationship themes. The tone is heartfelt and funny rather than explicit. Older teens and adults

Story (may spoil tone)

Frustrated with his commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris and running out of time, Min makes a proposal: a green-card marriage with their friend Angela in exchange for her partner Lee's expensive IVF. Elopement plans are upended, however, when Min's grandmother surprises them with an extravagant Korean wedding banquet.
