Movie Reviews of 27 Dresses (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: James Marsden ruined this movie
Summary: 3 Stars
This was a movie that I had wanted to see. Katherine is fantastic and is a joy to watch. Unfortunately James Marsden just ruined the entire movie. He is exactly the reason why women should not get involved with men. I can not believe that the movie ended the way it did. One can really enjoy this movie if they cut out all the scenes that Marsden is in. Another character, completely differant from Marsdens, should have been in this movie. Movie Review: Marsdeigl!
Summary: 4 Stars
27 Dresses is a cute little movie about, yes, romance and comedy. While not perfect, it is a pretty good movie. I judge movies on whether I'll ever want to watch them again, and I would see 27 Dresses a few more times. Katherine Heigl is good at playing her title role, and James Marsden does light up the screen as the love interest, but... there is some heart missing. It's the cinematic equivalent of a Hershey's bar- you know it's not as good as, say, Dove chocolate, but you'll still eat it because it tastes pretty good and you're hungry. Movie Review: 27 Dresses
Summary: 4 Stars
No doubt that this young lady has a future! She literally lit up the screen. Using as little over acting as possible. The ending shows that you may not get what you thought you wanted, but you can get something better!Movie Review: Very sweet and, dare I say it, "cute".
Summary: 4 Stars
I knew the ending right from the start (who wouldn't figure that out?), but I had to watch it. James Marsden was in it, hello! That's the first reason, but also because I'm a sappy romantic who loves chick flicks!
I didn't like Katherine Heigl that much before she started doing movies, but she is growing on me with each new film. Her character in this is very admirable for doing all she does for friends and not saying "no" to people. She's a hero at times, really. And when the hero gets trampled, of course you want to see her lifted up and given the respect and happy ending with the perfect wedding she deserves. Oh, and I loved her adorable apartment!
Good, good!
Movie Review: Great movie!
Summary: 4 Stars
I was a little surprised by this movie. Like most romantic comedies, it had the usual scant plot and comedic dilemmas. In this case, though, the substantial charm of the two leads--Heigl and Marsden--added a great deal more. Heigl's character is addicted to weddings and is portrayed as sort of an offbeat character as a result. What the wedding obsession really does is keep her from living her own life; she is always helping everyone else with their weddings and never moving forward toward her own. Add to that an unrequited crush on her boss, and you have someone who is never going to have a real life unless something happens to change things. That something is an unlikely attraction to Marsden's character--unlikely because he appears to hold views that are opposite to hers, not because he happens to be outrageously handsome, funny, and smart. While some reviewers have panned the movie because they see Heigl as pathetic in it, the fact is that everyone has some areas in their life where they are not everything they should be. It's the exaggeration of that that makes this movie funny and endearing. Most of us don't have a closet full of old bridesmaid dresses holding us back, but we may be holding onto other things that take the place of a real life. Heigl and Marsden were both winsome and adorable in this movie, and although it was a typical "chick flick," it was not sappy or boring. There was an interesting edge to both characters that gave the movie some life and spontaneity. I recommend it as an enjoyable viewing experience. Would love to see both actors in another movie again soon.
