Runaway Bride
1999
**½
Director: Garry Marshall
Cast: Julia Roberts, Richard Gere, Hector Elizondo, Joan Cusack, Rita Wilson

Julia Roberts and Richard Gere reunite nine years after Pretty Woman in an overlong but relatively enjoyable romantic comedy. Julia Roberts is the same as ever as a bride who has the habit of running away at the last moment, but Richard Gere as a persistent reporter has rarely been this likeable.
