27 Dresses (Widescreen Edition)

I AM a husband and father, and I could care less if a movie is "predictable" or not. Too many wanna be critics here adopt the typical critics skepticism and puffed up attitudes when they rate a movie or a book. 27 Dresses made some great memories and bonding moments between my wife and I, and our 15 year old daughter who is racing all too fast towards womanhood, relationships and leaving the nest. Moments like what 27 Dresses brought to our home are way too rare. It was daughter Erin who told us about it, and predictable as it was, we love it each time we watch it!!

Bottom line is that this is nothing but another feel-good Cinderella movie. It's predictable. It's got stereotypical characters and overused plot points. It's nothing new and exciting. But it's not the worst example of the genre, either. I actually liked the main character - she, at least, wasn't completely mopey and unhappy. She had a good outlook and attitude towards her bridesmaid-ness. The main guys were appropriately eye-candy-ish. The best friend was (of course) spunky and sweet. So, yeah, it was the same as dozens of very similar movies. And if that's what floats your boat, this is a perfect movie to add to your collection.

If you're looking for anything ground-breaking and amazing, this is not it. If you're looking for an 'awwww, how sweet' romance, this will fit the bill. Not highly recommended, but I wouldn't stop a friend from buying it by performing a flying tackle in the middle of the store, either.

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
