Reviews:
”Above Average So enjoy 27 Dresses' limited charms for what they are rather for when they are on display. This isn't a great movie but it fills a niche.” Berardinelli, Internet Critic
”Above Average It's an uninspired romantic comedy that adheres slavishly to the conventions of the genre. But the movie is made pleasant by the likeability of its star, Katherine Heigl, and her chemistry with the affable James Marsden.” USA Today
”Average 27 DRESSES wallows in lazy sentiment and cheap sentimentality, reaching its nadir in the scene in which Kevin and Jane drunkenly bond over mangling the lyrics to Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets" in a blue-collar bar.” TV Guide Online
”Average '27 Dresses' will never itself attain classic movie status, despite a closing pan shot that goes for the goose bumps and a menu of rom-com conventions that steals from the best.” Newsday
