In spite of its retread quality, ``Father of the Bride Part II'' is a likable chunk of cinematic confection.
Father of the Bride Part II,'' now on home video, is too long, completely predictable and unabashedly immersed in a posh world.

Friday December 8, 1995 "Father of the Bride Part II" is as bright and shiny as a Christmas tree ornament and will likely be cause for holiday season cheer in many a family feeling overdosed on brutality and depravity on the screen.
The seasoned husband-and-wife team of Nancy Meyers and Charles Shyer--she produces, he directs, they collaborate on the script--and their expert cast, virtually intact from the 1991 "Father of the Bride," knows exactly how to deliver the goods, just like Santa.

Shortly afterward, Nina begins having erratic mood swings and an upset tummy.
As with the first film, there's some strange stuff going on here, not the least of which is the spectacle of Martin transforming himself into a poor imitation of Chevy Chase (himself a poor imitation).

What "Part II" has going for it is an exemplary cast.
Great "Bride II' cast carries retread plot Steven Martin and Martin Short play beautifully; Diane Keaton's outstanding, as well
She was so good that I didn't think of her as a terrific actress.

In spite of its retread quality, ``Father of the Bride Part II'' is a likeable chunk of cinematic confection.
The same sentimentality that ruled the last ``Father of the Bride'' is operative here -- George can't face losing his house and is forced to buy it back in one of the film's more inspired asides.
