27 Dresses Audience Reviews

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.
SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
Karlee The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
tjgorman66 I liked this movie and loved the Benny and the Jets bar scene, is the cast over the top too good looking..yep, but worth watching
Taylor Kingston I love this movie. I think it's a great concept, and it's so different from a lot of other romantic comedies. I love the acting, and I think the cast were a great choice. I have seen this movie a lot, maybe not as many weddings as Jane has been a bridesmaid at, but still, a lot.This is the story of a young woman named Jane. She has a lot of friends. So many in fact, that she has been a bridesmaid at twenty-seven weddings. She never says no to her friends, and she always plans all of their weddings. That's a big task. She's in love with her boss, of course, but after Jane's sister, Tess, comes into town, George starts falling for the sister. Awkward. But, Tess is a manipulative liar, and she's only pretending to be everything George wants. Jane meets Kevin, a cynical writer who decides to do a story on the fact that she's been a bridesmaid more than two dozen times. In the end, Jane finds love unexpectedly.Best part of this episode: The wedding / dressing-up montages.Worst part of this episode: Jane's sister, ugh.Overall, I give this movie an 8 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Awesome.
Sancy Jeg This movie was not that bad but okay to watch. In this story Jane has been bridesmaid for 27 times and helped all brides in their wedding plan. J A reporter who is Jane favorite too, secretly writes a report on her. and her sister weds Jane's boss but she had a secret crush on him. I think the movie is okay for one time watch.
p-stepien Apparently the female world still centres around the concept of marriage, especially when losing your mother at an early age. Jane (Katherine Heigl) fetishizes weddings to the extreme, gathering all 27 dresses, where she functioned as a bridesmaid and dedicating to them a grand closet. Essentially treating it as her calling she takes great pride in functioning as the organiser, consoler and mind behind the event. Everyday life has her work as a personal assistant for philanthropist George (Edward Burns), who is also an object of obsessed puppy love. When Jane's sister, Tess (Malin Åkerman), comes to visit the situation complicates itself, as the younger sibling captures the eye and ultimately heart of George. Meanwhile Jane's exploits as a mass-bridesmaid captures the interest of cynical commitment newspaper journalist with a post-crash test helmet hair-do Kevin (James Marsden), witness to Jane servicing two weddings during one night.Female characters are formed in such a way, that were it helmed by a male the term misogynist could very easily surface due to its outdated stereotyping, where females live the childhood dream of marriage as their sole goal, while men are cynical towards the whole concept. Still somehow the storyline found relative appeal amongst the target group, hence despite the stance of Jane being passé the idea of a grand white wedding has not entirely lost its magic. The problems with "27 dresses" don't stop there, as occasionally borderline race stereotypes are ventured in a poorly conceived manner, once even with a cringe-worthy depiction of all Asians as being short. Ultimately these flaws can be glossed over and focus probably best diverted to the satisfaction level offered by the simplistic and clichéd story, which offers no surprises and main strength lies in the graceful allurement of Katherine Heigl. Humour levels lay pretty low, so despite an enticing portrayal of a romantically lost and somewhat ungainly Jane the pull of the movie makes it a replicable and quickly forgettable affair.
