How important is the perfect wedding? Emma (Anne Hathaway) and Liv (Kate Hudson) have been best friends since childhood and each has always dreamed of an extravagant wedding at the Plaza hotel. When both friends get engaged in the same week, they rush to the exclusive wedding planner Marion St. Claire (Candice Bergen) to book the perfect weddings at the Plaza hotel. The reservations get mixed up and both weddings end up scheduled on the same day and, since there are no other suitable openings available at the Plaza, the friends find themselves in the impossible situation of having to decide who will sacrifice her long-held dream and change venues. It turns out that neither woman is willing to give up her plans for a perfect wedding and the friends turn against one another in a hilarious battle that results in everything from blue hair to rumors of pregnancy and embarrassing home videos accompanying one bride's walk down the aisle. Can even a life-long friendship survive the emotional turmoil of two weddings gone wrong? Bride Wars is an amusing look at the trials of friendship and love that's sure to inspire laughter and perhaps even a tear or two. --Tami Horiuchi Stills from Bride Wars (Click for larger image)

 Fierce Competition Over a Wedding Date February 4, 2010
Khaled Altaher (Riyadh, NA Saudi Arabia)
Two girls, played by Kate Hudson and Anna Hathaway, since they were very young had the dream of having their wedding held at the Plaza. Both their boyfriends proposed to them at the same time, and therefore they both were getting married soon. Kate and Anne visit a wedding planner to schedule their weddings at the plaza, only the wedding planner mistakenly booked their weddings on the same date. Each girl in the attempt of trying to protect her thunder, forces the other one to change her wedding date by ruining up her wedding. Throughout the movie we watch all sorts of evil attempts to ruin the other girl's wedding, some of them are quite funny.
Entertaining story. However it touch base on the issue of competition and the idea that you need to completely destroy your competitor to get what you want. These are two best friends who were brought up together since they were very young, however they were ready to ruin the life of each other just because of 1 wedding night. It also tells us men that weddings are really a big deal for women (most men treat their weddings as a nice and fun party); and we need to do our best in fulfilling their dream by making it truly a special night for them.

 Bride Wars Raped My Eyes January 8, 2010
Jack L. Aiello (Bronx, New York United States)

It's movies like Bride Wars that make me so happy I was born with a penis. Bride wars is a toothless, vapid comedy that cheapens the institution of marriage by shamelessly pandering to its lowest common denominator. With a voice over from Candice Bergen, we learn that Liv Lerner (Kate Hudson) and Emma Allen (Ann Hathaway) are two life long girlfriends who have fantasized since the age of seven to have June weddings at the Plaza Hotel (hold that thought). Surprise surprise: Now in their twenties, Emma and Liv get engaged at the same time and though they both manage to snare separate dates in June at The Plaza for their respective weddings, through some irreversible glitch, their dates both get switched to the same day.
At first, Liv and Emma are crestfallen over the situation. They try to rectify it, but as the reality sets in that one of them must move their date, the claws begin to unsheathe and Liv and Emma become two of the biggest Bridezilla douche-pies this side of the Bravo Channel. What follows is a rapid devolution of their friendship into a tit for tat rivalry. There's a tanning salon fiasco for Emma and a blue-hair incident for Liv. This is meant to be funny, but it's just tedium. Worse still, the fiances are bit players who don't figure much into the movie's equation at all, and by the end, they become so inessential that they could have been replaced by blow-up dolls.
Bride Wars doesn't know what it wants to be. This is owing to director Gary Winick's shift in tone. The first half is dedicated to the spiteful revenge stunts the girls pull on each other, but the second half becomes a halfhearted focus into each character's relationship with their fiances, plus a sort of ice melting set-up for the ending so we don't hate either of the girls too much by the time the credits roll. I would even forgive the tonal disparity, weak script and blotchy narrative, if it weren't for one egregious, frightfully disturbing theme that I find completely obsolete and not a little offensive. This movie normalizes the fact that girls should have their weddings planned out by the age of seven; regardless of career, hobbies or friends and family that surround her, a woman isn't accomplished until she's walking down the aisle. And when a woman gets engaged, she has license to act rudely, selfishly, and vindictively by simple virtue of that fact. Bride Wars inadvertently makes a great case against any form of marriage, gay or straight.
And the visual ipecac doesn't stop there. The last straw comes during the epilogue, when one final stroke of bathetic manipulation involving a double pregnancy made me realize that Bride Wars is really only good for one thing: stomach pumping.
