Synopsis of Bride Wars
Lifelong best friends Liv (Kate Hudson) and Emma (Anne Hathaway) are a pair of 20-something career women reduced to acting like stupid, bratty children as their shared wedding day approaches.
No, they aren't marrying each other, although that would have made for a more interesting premise than the one presented here. The problem is that each of them wants her long-dreamed-of nuptials to take place at New York's Plaza in June. Unfortunately, the in-demand wedding planner chosen by each of them (Candice Bergen) says only one date is available at the hotel that month. Cue resentment, estrangement, subterfuge, sabotage…and scads of sitcom-level unfunniness.
Cowritten by Greg DePaul and "Saturday Night Live" cast member Casey Wilson (who has a small role as a third Plaza-scheduled bride), Bride Wars would be insultingly condescending even if its main characters were uncouth, dopey dropouts fighting over a Vegas chapel ceremony. The fact that Liv is supposed to be a high-powered Manhattan attorney and Emma a schoolteacher makes their annoyingly childish behavior even more off-putting.
Yes, the movie (allegedly) is a comedy, so allowances must be made. But there's nothing about Bride Wars that indicates its infantilization of Liv and Emma is supposed to be regarded as ironic, satiric or even tongue-in-cheek. Instead, the unsubtle subtext is that even educated and otherwise adult women are shrill, vindictive, manipulative harpies at heart.
And so we are treated to scenes of Emma switching dyes at a salon so Liv's hair turns blue, Liv switching Emma's choice of tanning spray so Emma turns orange, and so on. The former BFFs hurtfully harangue, insult and belittle each other at every opportunity.
There's also the initial creepiness of Liv's psychotically needy desperation to be betrothed, as well as her powerlessness to avoid eating any of the wedding-gown-straining sweets that Emma surreptitiously sends to her office. And Emma turns out to be the type of humiliating shrew who shows up at Liv's bachelorette party for the sole purpose of making herself the center of attention. That's entertainment?
Eventually, we are treated to that most overused of wake up call lines. Disappointed by Emma's cruel behavior toward Liv, Emma's fiance sadly informs her that "I don't even know who you are." Ugh.
Amid all of the squealing, screaming, and shouting that's supposed to pass for humor, exactly one thing in the movie struck me as funny enough to write down. Arguing about the merits of each other's upcoming event, Liv enthusiastically emits the immortal words, "Your wedding can suck it!"
Sort of says it all, huh?

Dancing Polish street cleaner
A dancing street sweeper has left Britain fearing for his life, saying he was beaten up by racist thugs.
Ziggy Dust, from Poland, told friends he was leaving because National Front members had attacked and threatened to kill him.
The London cleaner shot to public attention when YouTube clips showed him dancing as he collected rubbish in Chiswick.
Film crews descended on the borough to see the 47-year-old strut his stuff and one national newspaper used him in its advertising campaign.
But after three years in Britain, Ziggy - christened Zbigniew Colbecki - is now back in Poland.
Writing on a web forum, he said: 'I'm outside of England because someone wanted to kill me before New Year.
'I feel very sad. Not everyone was happy.
'Someone hated me very much and my dancing. I miss Chiswick. I left England without choice.'
Ziggy, a former circus juggler had also been DJ-ing in a Chiswick bar owned by Sam Harrison.
Mr Harrison said: 'Ziggy came to see me last week and collected his equipment. He had decided to leave for Poland the next morning.
'He told me that he had been attacked and threatened by a faction of the National Front and felt unsafe.
'He said that it had happened over the Christmas period and that he did not think the police could help him.
'Somebody had scared him. I could see the fear in his eyes.'
Chiswick resident Kieran Loughran, 39, said: 'It was extraordinary how famous Ziggy became but it didn't change him and he was always happy to show off his moves.'
Hounslow council said it had not been aware of any threats against Ziggy.
