Summary- Two things about Jane: she never says no to her friends (she's been a bridesmaid 27 times and selflessly plans friends' weddings), and she's in love with her boss, George, nurturing dreams of a lovely, romantic wedding of her own. She meets Kevin, a cynical writer who finds her attractive, and that same week her flirtatious younger sister Tess comes to town. Jane silently watches George fall for Tess, a manipulative pretender. Worse, Jane may be called upon to plan their wedding. Meanwhile, Kevin tries to get Jane's attention and has an idea that may advance his career.
Kia's Review- "This is the first, and only, movie I saw in the movie theater all by myself, therefore, I have a special place for it in my heart. :-) No, it's not a fantastic movie but yes, I smile through almost all of it. There were places where it was a little slow but overall it's well done. True, the plot is a little obvious, as is the case with most chick flicks, but it's a charming movie! I'm crazy about Katherine Heigl, I think she's darling and I kind of want to be her when I grow up. She was sweet and believable! I think James Marsden is a wonderful person to look at and he wasn't too over the top, which was nice. There's something wonderful about drunk people singing and dancing on bars so I'm sure glad the movie had a little bit of that and I'm very glad that they actually showed you all '27 Dresses', it would've been disappointing if they had not. All in all, I'm a fan of the movie and would watch it again! Oh, and I LOVE the bosses dog!!! He's a Bernese Mountain Dog and I NEED one! :-) I give 27 Dresses a 3 out of 5 stars." ***--
Eric's Review- "Not too painful for a chick flick, I LOL'd in a few places. I thought casting Edward Burns as the boss that Katherine Heigl has a crush on was a little odd, but overall I guess it worked. Also, James Marsden (Cyclops from X-Men) didn't do too bad as a romantic comedy lead actor. He was rather charming and seemed comfortable in the role. I wonder why he has not been in this position much? Maybe he just prefers psy-fi action... as I do... :-) Judy Greer as the best friend was a highlight although the character is feeling a bit stereotypical as hollywood has overdone the sassy best friend role. Not Judy's fault though, she was good. And, well, I don't hate watching Katherine Heigl on screen, and she was fun and cute as usual in this one. Not an amazing move but good. I give it 3 out of 5 stars." ***--
