27 Dresses (Widescreen Edition)

This movie was showing in the nail salon a few weeks ago, but I didn't watch it b/c it had already started and I have a "thing" about starting a movie 1/2 way through that I've never seen. So instead I had a lot of conversation with the nail technician. Anyway, onto the movie. I bought it yesterday and plopped it in last night to watch after kids were in bed. Hubby grabbed his laptop to do some work, figuring it is a chic-flick and he'd be able to get all kinds of work done in 111 minutes. Not so!! He was laughing along with me and enjoying each and every minute. Even went so far as to say "that was a really good movie, wouldn't have been upset if I spent money on it in the theatre."

Dress up a video with 27 misses and you have one hit, including the 28th dress sung to the tune of "Here Comes the Bride." Delightful entertainment!

these is a great movie becz it gives you comedy and romance so if love date movies and romance movies you will love these movie I would highly recommend for everyone to watch

I don't normally watch this kind of thing, so I'm not even sure how to review this. It was totally predictable, of course, but it wasn't horrible.

Katherine Heigl is the best thing in it--a bit of a modern Thelma Todd. She _does_ seem like a doormat, though, whatever reviewer Mr. Keogh thought, but she's cute and she's more interesting than were the heroines of the handful of other chick flicks I've actually seen (all, like, three of them). The rest of the characters are pretty flat, though.

I did sort of like that all four of them get their own bit of comeuppance at the end: Jane for being a pushover; Tess for being selfish; Kevin for being a pessimist; and George for being oblivious.

I bought this copy for myself because I loved it in the theaters. Just a feel good, sweet movie that makes you smile and believe the good girl does win.
