i be so far remove from the target audience of this cartoonish and estrogen heavy 2009 farce that it become a challenge to sit all the way through it blissfully brief 89 minute run time . the by the number screenplay by greg depaul and june diane raphael and and former snl regular casey wilson could have be a sharp satire on the excess of wed related commerce or a black comedy about competitiveness among the superficially entitle and either approach of which i would have praise . sadly and it neither and and a limply direct by gary winick ( 13 go on 30 ) and it seem target squarely to privilege pre adolescent girl because the two principal reflect the obsessive and childish mindset of that age . their emotional immaturity and sitcom level behavior become draining . this contemporary parable focus on childhood best pal liv and emma and which of course in this movie simplistic term and mean they be opposite in every possible way . liv be the wealthy and über ambitious lawyer and naturally the less sympathetic one and while emma be a doormat struggle to make ends meet a a middle school teacher . to meet the plot dimension and it be liv who have the perfect boyfriend and all understanding and patience and while emma have a live in boyfriend who apparently have issue with her budding emancipation . wait in the wing be liv brother who be make to look so ideal that the screenplay might as well telegraph the resolution . the plot turn on a consultation with manhattan lead wed planner marion st. clare and whose administrative assistant erroneously double book liv and emma wedding on the same june day at the plaza hotel . the rest of the movie be about how they one up each other with fraternity level prank until the inevitable conclusion . kate hudson ( who also co executive produce ) seem to become a bad actress with every movie and a she play almost every scene a liv with the subtlety of a mime artist . i do not recognize any of the talent she showcased a free spirit groupie penny lane in cameron crowe almost famous nearly a decade ago . anne hathaway come across marginally good a emma and but that like say the roadrunner have slightly more credibility than wile e. coyote . a marion and candice bergen keep play the same role over and over again that i be start to wonder if a decade a murphy brown be a fluke . kristen johnston deliver the film one truly sardonic note a emma fellow teacher turn maid of honor . the three men be mere background filler and although bryan greenberg ( prime ) look to be make an attempt at a dimensional character . at least cinematographer frederick elmes give the movie the appropriately polished sheen . the 2009 dvd contains three delete scene and all excisable and and an extended commercial for designer vera wang and whose wedding gown be spotlight in the film .
