Who are the scariest people alive?
“Bride Wars” would make anyone think the answer is brides.
The movie stars Kate Hudson as Liv and Anne Hathaway as Emma. They are lifetime friends. But when their weddings get booked on the same day, the claws come out.
Neither one wants to change the date or the location. And this get a little bit messy. Both Liv and Emma do some things that are a little bit insane.
Hudson and Hathaway create great scenes together. Throughout the entire movie there is never a moment when you don’t want to be watching.
Whether one is dyeing the other’s hair blue or showing an embarrassing video at their wedding, this movie has all a girl could ever want from a chick flick. It has drama. It has love. And last but certainly not least, it has boys.
When you are staring at the screen, some things in the movie will surprise you; others will make you want to cry.
This movie made me happy that I have best friends who live near me, and I can talk to them whenever I want to.
But it also made me realize that if I don’t have these childhood friends with me when I grow up and am getting married, it could be very sad.
I give this movie two thumbs up.
Girls, if you are looking for a movie to make you happy, see “Bride Wars.” It is a great one for the heart.
