Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Cleo Smith I'm usually the first person aboard the "Hollywood needs to stop ridiculing our inteligence by asuming a big wedding is all women care about" but I actually saw potential in this film.It has 2 talented leads (both Hathaway and Hudson have proved themselves as decent actresses to say the least) and 2 main characters who have some substance, i.e. they are not just mashed up cliches. It has a premise, childhood friends get married on the same day, but loses it all, because it assumes the worst of women. Let me explain. There simply is no way two people who were selfless enough to be able to hold on to a friendship for so long, would turn against each other like hyenas over an easily solvable problem. The movie makes our characters denounce the idea of a double wedding (more to get rid of the thought in all of its viewers heads) straight away, but the thing is, two best friends like them, who do everything together, who have shared this dream all their lives, would have had a double wedding and they would have loved it.Making this about the brides being all "this is MY day, I'M the bride" blah, blah is what ultimately ruined the movie. Because from being a movie celebrating friendship, it turned into a parade of selfishness and shallowness, not because it didn't have a choice, but because this is what the men who made this film think about women like their central characters, and that's just sad.The cleansing comes too late in the film to salvage it, as far as I'm concerned. The fact that these two inteligent women come to the same conclusion we came to 5 minutes in the film, that they are sharing their lives together, but only do so at the very end of the film makes for a sadly torpid script.One last thought: the amount of concealed evil exhibited in the ugly games the two best friends played against each other is not telling of feminine nature but, again, it is telling of what the men who wrote this script think about women. And, again, that's really sad.

MattyGibbs Two friends accidentally arrange their weddings for the same day which leads to them falling out and trying to sabotage each others day. Bride Wars had the potential to be funny but unfortunately this one fails on every level. It isn't remotely funny, the characters are awful and the dialogue and the plot boring. Even though it's a relatively short film it seems to drag on and on. The acting from the two leads is very poor but whether this can be blamed solely on the actresses or the awful script is up for debate. Anne Hathaway probably comes out with more credit but Kate Hudson is just terrible. Neither of the characters is remotely likable and in a film like this, that is a critical flaw. Both come across as spoiled and vindictive and it is impossible to have any sympathy with either.I thought I might enjoy this but it is one of the poorest romantic films I've seen, lacking any sparkle at all. Avoid.

marie fowler I unlike some other enjoyed the movie. It was comical and I thoroughly liked watching it. My friends all would like to see a pregnancy sequel of Bride Wars. NOT only are the actors exceptional, but just the whole June wedding is enough to have kept me watching. You hear so many people talking about June weddings, but for you and your best friend to have the same wedding date is hilarious how it played out. It is just plain and simply a movie worth watching many times over. I have teenagers who live it, also so it can't be that bad for them to watch. You have to find the lighter side of the plot. It is about a friendship and bonds made since childhood. How people end up still staying together and sharing their special movements in life. That's what it was all about. Although, the one part I didn't like was when at the end something more could've been given such as Pregnancy Wars...

phoenix 2 Bride wars is a movie about two best friends, Liv and Emma, who happen to have their weddings at the same day at the same place. And as they are planning their weddings, they drift apart and they start battling till the end. The movie is a romantic comedy, mainly about friendships however and not all about romantic love. The battle between the two friends is entertaining and gets better and better as the rivalry develops. Kate Hudson is great in the role of the controlling, competitive business woman, however Anne Hathaway seem a little out of her comfort zone. The two couples too have no chemistry between them. The theme is interesting, but its still the usual romantic comedy plot, with no surprises or twists till the end. All in all, a nice movie about weddings.
