Critics Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle
The real casting disaster is Mulroney. His blandness in the role makes it impossible to believe two beautiful women would fight over him.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
Although there are definite lags here, those "glittering" set-pieces are funny enough (at least one is hilarious) to stave off any prolonged yawns.

Users Reviews

Cute fun movie.
Julia Roberts is great as a guys best friend who suddenly realizes she is in love with him just as he is getting married. She flies to the scene to tell him her love and then realizes that she should let him be with the love of his life.
harmless chick flick
Julia Roberts is lovely, enough to make thiss movie watchable - and 2 minutes after it's over, you won't even remember watching it. So all is good but not more than that.
Likely to see
Not for me
