Ken had a polar bear golf tournament all day today (and it truly was--30 degrees was the high!), so I arranged with some of my gal-pals to have a chick-flick afternoon. We opted for "27 dresses," and all gave it a thumbs up. Yes, it's formulaic and predictable, but it was fun, and a little different, and we enjoyed it. A much better run for Katherine Heigl than "Knocked Up," which we thought was awful (no doubt the casualty of a lack of chemistry between "romantic" leads), and probably better directed. Some fun moments, some cliched wedding stuff, but who cares. Chick flicks aren't supposed to be Oscar favorites, just fun films to enjoy on an afternoon with the girls. We did.
