BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Geeky Randy Career-oriented pushover Heigl finally has enough when another woman swoops in on the man she secretly loves (Burns), the only problem… the woman is her sister (Åkerman). Ugh. Then there's Marsden's character pushing his way into conflict, as a cynical writer who tries to win the heart of Heigl. Typical chick-flick that offers as little originality as it does laughs. While the acting may not be terrible, it certainly is insincere—maybe the cast had a difficult time hiding their frustration with being a part of such a dull and empty movie. Even the Elton John music can't lift this cookie-cutter rom-com.*½ (out of four)

SnoopyStyle Jane (Katherine Heigl) is always the bridesmaid, never the bride. She's attracted to her boss George (Edward Burns), but when her little sister Tess (Malin Akerman) comes to town, he falls for the younger sister. Kevin (James Marsden) is the cynical writer who's trying to do more than the fantasy wedding story. When he find Jane's filofax in a cab, he decides there might be an interesting story about Jane.Literally there was only one laugh in this for me. Just one. That's when Judy Greer slaps Katherine Heigl. Is there something of a wish fulfillment? I don't know. Let's say Heigl in this movie is pushing all the wrong buttons for me.I'm not trying to say that Heigl is a bad actress. The whole idea that these two beautiful people are both so cynical is not an appealing story. Bennie and the Jets singalong was a smile-worthy moment. Somebody should steal that and put it in a better movie.

george_cherucheril I watched this movie on a network with commercials and did not finish watching it but saw most of it. I cannot believe so much money was spent with such a poor result. This movie fails on many levels. First, the idea that Katherine Heigl's character is interesting enough to be featured in a big feature story for a large New York newspaper is balderdash. Heigl's character is boring and largely uninteresting.The plot is contrived. The actress who plays her sister cannot act. The scene where she freaks out about the newspaper article does not work. She cannot carry that scene.Katherine Heigl's role as the woman who is always the bridesmaid is not convincing. No one would believe that a woman of Heigl's beauty and charm would be unable to find a suitable husband.The actor playing the newspaper reporter who falls for Heigl does not have chemistry with Heigl and he is miscast for the role. I do not buy him as a newspaper reporter.The actor who plays Heigl's boss and the guy she thought she loved is underused. He seems bored by the role.Overall this is a superficial and forced plot that begs to be interesting. With so much money to spend to make this movie one would think that the producer's could have delivered a better product.

Desertman84 27 Dresses is a romantic comedy that stars Katherine Heigl and James Marsden.It was about a woman who has served as a bridesmaid a shocking 27 times wrestles with the prospect of supporting her sister at the altar on number 28,despite having fallen helplessly in love with her smitten sibling's handsome husband-to-be. The film was directed by Anne Fletcher.The plot starts when Jane,played by Heigl,has the kind of altruistic traits that everyone looks for in a friend, yet lately the perennial bridesmaid has begun to feel as if something is missing in her life. One night, local newspaper reporter Kevin spots the devoted bridal attendant racing between receptions in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and quickly surmises that her quirky tale may be just the story to get him off the bridal beat and into the big time. Immediately suspicious of the cynical reporter's motivations, Jane butts heads with Kevin just as her younger sister Tess shows up in town. While Jane has always put the needs of friends and family before her own wants and desires, she's suddenly prompted to reevaluate her priorities when her boss -- with whom she is secretly in love -- falls for her younger sister Tess. When Tess and Jane's boss George make plans to marry, the smitten younger sibling mistakenly assumes that her lovelorn older sibling will be happy to take part in the wedding. For as far back as Jane can remember, she has sacrificed her own happiness for the sake of those she holds dearest, but now that her heart has been broken, she's finally found the courage to be honest with herself. Now, as Jane finally comes to terms with her true feelings, her life begins to change in ways she never expected.The movie is definitely clichéd,predictable and most of all forgettable.But nevertheless,Heigl's presence makes it entertaining.Although she could fare better in good movies like Knocked Up,she makes up for the many negative things the movie has like its dry humor and unoriginal ideas borrowed from other films.Also,the actors except for Heigl were uninteresting and looks uninspired where the plot is headed.Overall,it remains a good view only for Katherine Heigl and for young people in love.
