27 Dresses (2008)

Cast: Katherine Heigl (Jane Nichols), James Marsden (Kevin Doyle), Judy Greer (Casey), Malin Akerman (Tess Nichols), Edward Burns (George)
For complete info, see IMDb's 27 Dresses page.

I always thought the concept of 27 Dresses was a great one. I also thought that they had a great title for a movie about someone who was always a bridesmaid (or, in this case, always a maid of honor) and never a bride. In spite of thinking it was a cute concept, 27 Dresses pleasantly surprised me. I think this is one "chick flick" that even guys can enjoy.

The story behind 27 Dresses is clever and definitely puts a few unique spins on the standard romantic comedy. Besides, I think everyone can appreciate the fact that there have been some hideous bridesmaids dresses out there (whether they looked like they looked better at the time due to the fashion, or not). Most women have had to wear them, but everyone has been to at least one wedding where they've shuddered at the idea of the poor women having to walk down the aisle (and hang out through the entire reception) in one of those horrible dresses.

The cast is amazing and the dresses are over the top and wonderful! If you missed 27 Dresses in a theatre, I highly recommend renting it now.

Grade: B+
