L.A. Weekly by Chuck Wilson

The all-Polynesian cast, many of whom developed this material as part of a theater troupe called "The Naked Samoans," bring so much energy and glee to the telling that one can only smile and hope they all profit wildly from the American remake that's reportedly in the works.

Variety by Eddie Cockrell

The big, burly Samoan Wedding is a shrewdly written, impeccably timed and audaciously played romantic comedy.

San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle

It has an affectionate aura, a warmth to it. But at the same time, the audience is left standing on the outside, almost as though watching a home movie: Clearly, this meant something to the people who made it, but it's hard to say what or why.
