27 Dresses

27 Dresses is the brand new movie about a girl who has been a bridesmaid no less than 27 times… First I wonder who has 27 friends close enough to be asked to be a bridesmaid. That aside, the movie seems to look like a bit of a chick-flick, and it shapes up to have exactly that formula. Girl meets boy, confusion is created to make girl think boy feels as much for her as she does for him. At the same time another suitor tries to get closer to the girl, just to use her for his own advancements. When she finds out, she of courses hates him, and he is not fond of her. Sounds familiar yet? This is probably a similar scenario you encountered in grade 3: the boy who teased you secretly loved you to shreds - puppy love of course.

Anyhow, without spoiling too much more of the plot, 27 dresses may be a great date movie if you are seeing it with a girlfriend, or an extremely metro-sexual or gay friend. Definitely keep the jock away from this one, and enjoy it like chocolate: in all it’s chick-flick glory just like you enjoy your other guilty pleasures.
