 Katherine Heigl is such a Cat! September 17, 2008

It took me awhile to actually watch this film and I have to admit I was a bit skeptical the first few minutes, but once I put my thoughts away and sat back to truly engage with the moment I found "27 Dresses" to be ultimately delightful! When I was first introduced to the title and plot I thought it was just going to be a bunch of wedding parties but was pleasantly surprised to uncover such a charming story. I totally rate Katherine Heigl's performance as 5 gold stars, And James Mardsen was such an adorable 5 stars! I thought they both played these roles very well and they made a wonderful connection on screen. I thought the lady who played Tess was also perfect for this role, very snaky and distasteful, but is not without a little heart. This story was a great balance of humor, love and reality. Which reminds me that Jane's red headed friend was such the perfect little sidekick to have around! She did a great job, and actually I find that this actress does a great job in similar roles elsewhere as the main friend of leading roles. Gooo Red! Lastly, I did find Edward Burns' character to be a little dull; George. Even the name Geoorrge.... Is so serious and Big. But George felt genuine which did allude to his charm which made it more real that Jane had a serious love crush on him, but discovered she was mistaken in the most beneficial way. She must have been very generous in previous lives to have such good karma. All in all the whole cast did a great job and Little Brother Pedro was super cute! Wishing more warm hearted stories get adapted to the screen.

An absurd story that speaks the truth about the disproportionate value we place on weddings while neglecting the things that really matter in a relationship. Definitely a girls night out choice.

It was a very cute and very romantic movie. I am a big Katherine H. fan! Love her from Grey's Anatomy and I think she will be at great as Katherine Hepburn if she keeps up the way she has been doing.
Love is patient, love is kind, love is slowly losing your mind September 5, 2008
Jane(Katherine Heigl) is obsessed with making her friends wedding days picture perfect; the way they dreamed of since they were just little girls. Jane is selfless and kind, and Jane never gets much to show for herself. She's desperately in love with her boss George(Edward Burns) and yet she'll never take any steps toward her own happiness.
That is until the night of two weddings, dashing back and forth between the ceremonies of two friends(which she was the maid of honor at both) that she meets Kevin(James Marsden) an outspoken marriage cynic. Tess(Malin Akerman) Jane's younger sister returns from a modeling job in Milan to turn Jane's world upside down, most of all hitting it off with George!
When dreamy Kevin gets Jane to see that she needs to take a chance to get what she wants in life, maybe it's not what she'd thought.
Judy Greer is hilarious as Casey, Jane's sharp-tongued best friend who believes the only joy in weddings is finding someone to hook up with and trashing the ugly bridesmaid dress she was forced to wear.
Predictable yes, but enjoyable all the same. Something I can watch time and time again that somehow makes me believe in marriage, just the way Jane does.
Excellent August 18, 2008
DVD came looking great and works wonderfully. Thank you for such a smooth and quick transaction.
