Heigl stars as Jane a romantic completely selfless woman who has been a bridesmaid in no less than 27 weddings. Unfortunately her own happy ending seems to be nowhere in sight. Until her younger sister Tess captures the heart of Jane's boss -- on whom Jane has a secret crush inspiring Jane to change her "always-a-bridesmaid" destiny.System Requirements:Running Time: 105 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/ROMANTIC COMEDY Rating: PG-13 UPC: 024543515975 Manufacturer No: 2251597 Amazon.com: Katherine Heigl is delightful as Jane, a self-effacing Gal Friday so addicted to organizing weddings in her off time, that 27 Dresses opens with her character juggling two nuptials on the same night. A perpetual bridesmaid, Jane's hobby is discovered by a matrimony reporter named Kevin (James Marsden), who hides a romantic side behind his wall of cynicism. While Kevin gradually develops feelings for Jane, the latter's superficial sister, Tess (Malin Akerman), pursues George (Edward Burns), Jane's boss and the object of her love. This romantic circle could go on forever, except that Jane is unexpectedly moved by Kevin despite her general irritation with him and without knowing that he's on the verge of sandbagging her with a ridiculing article in his newspaper. The situation is absurd, but the emotions are not. Heigl is very good, rooted in a long tradition of comely comediennes playing characters who fly under the radar of life. She makes Jane's pain palpable and conveys her character's inability to say no without making her look unappealing or weak. Marsden perfectly captures the part of a rumpled, underdressed writer with repressed passions, Akerman is as convincingly shrewish here as she was in The Heartbreak Kid, and Burns is fine as one of those guys so busy saving the world he barely pays attention to the people in his life. The script by Aline Brosh McKenna (The Devil Wears Prada) is fun if predictable, and Anne Fletcher's direction is vibrant. --Tom Keogh Beyond 27 Dresses

 Rating:  - ExcellentDVD came looking great and works wonderfully. Thank you for such a smooth and quick transaction. Rating: - A Sister Drama with Lots of Laughs and a Few TearsThis movie is filled with laugh out loud moments due to the strong writing and well delivered lines. It may have a typical formulaic plot of a modern romantic comedy, but I found a few surprising elements that far outweighed the stereotypical (even corny) aspects of the film, which made it something I could watch more than once. Jane, played beautifully by Katherine Heigl, is the little girl all grown up, who bathed herself in white lace dreams. She fills her calendar with weddings and ... Read More Rating:  - Some Things Never Change, but Katherine Heigl is GreatAlthough 27 Dresses gives you that same chick-flick high while watching, towards the end you start come down, and you realize it is the same thing all over again. Although one thing that is different is Katherine Heigl. Her sarcastic humor is delivered perfectly, and she is ideal (after some practice on Grey's Anatomy) for the sappy scenes where you are supposed to really feel the character pain. You know, the parts that define a chick flick, when all girls begin to get teary-eyed. Although, ... Read More Rating:  - Perfect FitThis is a typical chick flick and completely predictable..having said that I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jane(katerhine Hiegle) is always a bridesmaid, and LOVES it, or so she says. She is secretely in love with her boss George played by Edward Burns. Everything changes when her always prettier sister Tesscomes to stay with her and her and George get along great... Jane reexamines her always a bridemaids way of thinking. She is helped along by James Marsden who plays Kevin who is a writer. Read More Rating:  - wasnt happyI tried to watch it more then once it was not well done. I was really upset. I watched because Katherine Heigl is a good actress. The movie had no point. She was in love with the guy that Katherine Heigls sister "fall in love with". She lied about everything. So obviously the wound up not together. Katherine Heigl was cute and bubbly like usual but overal the movie was not good. |
