27 DRESSES

27 DRESSES IS 27 TOO MANY
"Kevin: [in Jane's apartment, with her showing off her dresses as she pulls out a loud-looking Gone With The Wind dress] What is that?
Jane: [holding the dress up to herself] Theme wedding!
Kevin: What was the theme? Humiliation? "
Perhaps humiliation would do best as the word I use to describe this film, although disaster works well too. The story about a woman who is in love with love and extends her gift of wedding knowledge to help others with their weddings. This movie was predictable, stereotypical and has already been done. My Best Friend's Wedding+ The Wedding Planner+The Wedding Singer... I didn't overly love any of those movies but would rather see them again then see 27 Dresses. There was NO chemistry with either of the male actors and their women "counterparts". The dialogue sounded like dialogue, not like people actually talking (yes, big difference). The cliche of the drunken night with a terrible song that everyone in the bar happens to love and know the lyrics to... this movie was unbelievable (in the bad way) and a slap to women everywhere.
NOT a pick: An unoriginal and sloppily made movie. Save your time.
