The story starts with two new American university graduates headed for Bali. One of them is Lily (Kaitlyn Dever), a soon-to-be lawyer. In Bali, they go snorkeling ... and their boat leaves them stranded a long distance from shore. They're rescued by handsome young local Gede (Maxime Bouttier) in his boat. So much for the first five minutes and the only plot driver we need.

We're then introduced to David Cotton (George Clooney) and Georgia Cotton (Julia Roberts), Lily's parents. They're divorced and hate each other. They now find themselves invited to Bali for their daughter's wedding, after she's known this guy for about a month. They agree to set aside their hatred long enough to stop their daughter's wedding.

That's it folks: it's a rom-com, you can guess the rest. But the plot is never the point of a rom-com: the real question is, do the stars have chemistry and were they handed a good script to go with that chemistry. And damn, it would be hard to go wrong with George Clooney and Julia Roberts: they're still both very fine to look at, and even more importantly they're excellent actors who work superbly together. Their fighting is of course over-played at the beginning for comedy and emphasis.

There's nothing new here, but 90 minutes of Roberts and Clooney bickering and reconciling with a reasonable script, beautiful scenery (according to Wikipedia it's all in Australia, not Bali), and some good jokes? Works for me.

As an added bonus, the movie goes all Jackie Chan at the end, interspersing out-takes with the final credits. Unlike Jackie Chan, this isn't action out-takes, just mistakes and stars being silly. But they're really funny, and it's clear (to no one's surprise) that they all had a blast making the movie. A very nice way to close this out.
