27 Dresses


Since Jane Nichols (Katherine Heigl) was a young girl all she's ever known to do is look after her family and friends. Now in her 20's she has found herself at her 26th and 27th wedding as chief bridesmaid and ever the optimist is happy to be there. As the film unfolds we see her boss George (Edward Burns) who she had been madly in love with since she started her job fall for her beautiful sister Tess (Malin Akermen)and when they get engaged she is asked to help organise their wedding as well. All the while Kevin Doyle (James Marsden) a local reporter has spotted her at these weddings and has found himself fascinated with her.

Can anyone say awwww?? If you want a sweet chick flick to curl up to with a cup of hot chocolate (do cinema's sell those?) and your favourite stuffed toy then look no further than this one. First off anyone who used to watch Roswell and then went on to fall in love with Grey's Anatomy will agree with me that Katherine Heigl can do no wrong at the moment, everything she is in she makes a success coz for some reason you just have to love her, even if she is too stupidly gorgeous for her own good and seems to have the bubbly perfect personality to match (judging purely on the roles she's played of course, will need to do more research to confirm) we all seem to love her!!

And then James Marsden actually has landed himself a lead role!! Horraay!! No more playing the other man (X Men, The Notebook, Enchanted, Superman Returns, the list goes on) but actually getting to be the man that scores the girl at the end!! Now when I heard he was going to play this man I was unsure as to whether he was up to the task always used to rejection in on screen love and all but I can happily say that he comes across just lovable and sexy enough to always be in his corner throughout the film!!

With a supporting role from the queen of supporting roles Judy Greer (Elizabethtown, 13 going on 30 and The wedding Planner to name a few) who I personally love and sercretly hope will make to leading lady one day, it is a shiner of a film if you're not expecting anything else other than a smiley and feel good moment!!

Probably one for the girls more than the boys, but as I am a girl I give it a very smitten 4 faces!!
