Bride Wars review

When Bridezillas attack!

If you check your brain at the door, perhaps even the parking lot, you can watch Bride Wars and have a decent time.
Sure it's fun watching the tricks that Liv and Emma play on one another but when you stop to consider it, what kind of a friendship do these two women really have when they are willing to trash it away for a wedding.

The characters are one dimensional - though Kate Hudson's character gets to stop being so perfect all time. However all the actors give their best given the circumstances so I can't fault their acting.

Also the story has no logic - once the women decide that their respective weddings are going to push through on the same day why do they insist on pulling tricks on one another?

I honestly don't know how a friendship can survive that kind of emotional pain so the convenient resolution and tacked on happy-ever-after ending falls into the realm of ridiculousness. Also the future love interest can be spotted a mile away.

I don't have that many expectations from a romantic comedy but Bride Wars really asks too much.
