Review: 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' meets Hitchcock in Hulu's enjoyable new comedy

Rosa Salazar stars in "Wedding Season."

An unlikely, likable mix of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and "The 39 Steps," Hulu's "Wedding Season" is a millennial rom-com thriller, in which a lovelorn dreamer falls for a woman who's trouble. In the present timeline, the two are fleeing the authorities and mysterious deadly forces. In the recent past, to which we continually flash back, a group of aging college friends go from nuptial to nuptial over the course of a summer, working out their individual romantic agendas.

The series opens with a bedraggled Stefan (Gavin Drea) interrupting the wedding of Katie (Rosa Salazar), like Dustin Hoffman at the end of "The Graduate," to proclaim his love for her as she stands at the altar.
