Chicago Sun-Times - Richard Roeper
There’s not a bad performance in this movie. De Niro, Keaton and Sarandon are particularly good, what a surprise. But it feels as if all the guests at “The Big Wedding” are wearing ID tags telling us their one Plot Point.

Chicago Tribune - Michael Phillips
The movie's own brand of charm has its subset of smarm.

San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
Most of this huge-cast extravaganza is a botched farce. When that doesn't work, it turns sentimental. The presence of liked and familiar actors helps make it watchable, but there is no disguising that this is a weak, badly constructed comedy. At least it's short.

Philadelphia Inquirer - Steven Rea
No one is bad in The Big Wedding, but no one is remotely believable, either.

NPR - Unnamed
Zackham's film feels as plastic as a cake topper — and just as hard to digest.
