Review: Bride Wars

Friday, March 13th, 2009

I didn’t really have any interest in seeing this movie per se, but my friend and I always end up going to see all the girly movies anyways. What can I say? I’m a sucker for a chick flick! I went in with very low expectations but it ended up being not as bad as I thought it would be.

Plot summary from Netflix:

Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway star as Emma and Liv, best friends who become worst enemies when they schedule their respective weddings on the same day. Competing for guests, venues and staff, these two bridezillas go on a ruthless rampage toward matrimony.

I was actually very entertained by this movie for some reason. It wasn’t particularly great in any way, shape or form, but for some reason I thought it was very sweet. And the relationship between the best friends (played by Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson) was very touching and I even found myself getting very emotional at some parts… (I must have been having a bad week because that’s very unlike me LOL).

But as soon as I saw Kate Hudson on screen I was like ‘What the hell happened to her face?!’ She’s not that old so I can’t believe she got a face lift but that’s really what is looked like. Her face looked very strange… it was kinda scary.

I was so happy to see Steve Howey in this movie because I love him on Reba! He is absolutely hilarious on that show. His character wasn’t really funny in the movie but I hope to see more of him soon.

Overall, I would say it is worth watching, especially if you normally like chick flicks. Not great, but entertaining in my opinion and it definitely had its moments.

My Rating:
3.5 stars
