The Singles 2nd Ward (2007)
Belated sequel to the film that essential started the ‘Mormon comedy’ genera. Basically a ‘meet the in-laws’ type story, Kirby Hayborn’s character must cope with his bride-to-be’s wealthy, divorced, non-Mormon parents, so its both culture and class clash. Though Full of the requisite Mormon in-humor, this movie would be not quite as incomprehensible to non-members as the original. In the end the Mormon belief system is validated while the culture lightly prodded, which is pretty much what Latter-day Saints like in their nitch comedies. Three out of Five.
