Bride Wars

directed by: Gary Winick
written by: Gary DePaul & Casey Wilson

Best friends since the beginning of time Emma (Anne Hathaway) and Liv (Kate Hudon) have always dreamed of having June weddings at the Plaza Hotel. Emma is a high school teacher and a people pleaser. Liv is a tough, hard-nosed lawyer who always gets her way (and was a chubby girl). Miraculously the girls are proposed to within a week of each other and they rush off to New York's best wedding planner Marion St. Claire (Candace Bergen). Since she is the best a what she does, she lets them know there are two openings for June weddings at the Plaza. Hooray!!

The girls book a wedding, Liv's at the beginning of the month and Emma's at the end. But due to a horrible mix up, the girls are booked on the same day and neither wants to give up the dream. The war is on.

I guess the movie appealed to me because of my addiction to WE go bridal sundays. Total chick flicks aren't usually my thing, but this one had a few good laughs in it. It's completely predictable but it's not as cheesy as a Lifetime movie would be. You learn a bit about friendship and relationships. But its mostly for fun.

I wouldn't drag a guy to see it cause they do tend to make the men a little...useless??? Something like that. Unnecessary. Not bad at all though.
