Bride Wars

Or, the mirror opposite of Rachel Getting Married, in which Anne Hathaway played a grungy, irritating maid of honor fresh out of rehab. In this shiny sitcom pilot that looks like something yanked from NBC’s shelves circa 1989, Hathaway is back to bright smiles and dewy eyes as schoolmarm Emma, who, with lifelong galpal, Liv (Kate Hudson), has always dreamed of a June wedding at the Plaza. Alas, a scheduling snafu means both brides-to-be have to share the date, which, solely for the purpose of an 88-minute film that feels as though it’ll last till July, they refuse to do. Hence all manner of juvenile hijinks (Liv dyes Emma’s skin orange; Emma streaks Liv’s hair blue) that linger till the icky “I do”s (or do they?). A step backward for Hathaway, Bride Wars is one more step into the quicksand for Hudson, who’s spent the nine years since Almost Famous wandering the romcom wasteland in search of an exit strategy—this movie, which she exec-produced, ain’t it. The biggest giggle comes in the opening credits: Cinematography by Frederick Elmes, best known for working with David Lynch and Jim Jarmusch. Really, Fred? Really?  — Robert Wilonsky
