"Bride Wars" - a war on your senses

Why not to watch it:
- It's mind-numbing (it's really not funny to watch two actresses of such high calibre get into a screeching craze-fest about who gets to wed at The Plaza...sorry bout the spoiler)...
- It's regressive (Kate Hudson, what were you thinking to come up with this movie for your debut as a big-screen film producer? It shows women to be obsessive dimwits who can turn crazy-manipulative over extremely stupid so-called wedding dilemas)
- It's so low on logic, it's embarrassing...its movies like this that perpetuate the myth of female craziness accompanying weddings...it talks about the apparent modern phenomenon of "bridezillas" and takes it to a whole new cringe-worthy level...

Why you can watch it (said with extreme caution):
- two great-looking ladies (Anne Hathaway and Kate H)
- well, that's it.

What is it about modern chick-flicks and chick-lit that forgive and even seem to idolise silly, obssessive, manipulative heroines?? Where are the leading ladies who can manage to get their own without being bitch-manipulative for a change? I miss them...Julia Roberts in My Best Friend's Wedding makes me want to shake her out of her flagrant disregard for her "best friends'" choices...the heroine of the Shoppaholic books is both sweet and funny but at the end of the day, she's a chronic money-guzzling machine that can only be maintained by marrying a super-rich guy...Wither "work-hard-and-make-your-own-life" girl power?
