A Julia Roberts film

A woman who, by a promise made years earlier, is supposed to marry her best friend in three weeks, even though she doesn't want to. When she finds out that he's marrying someone else, she becomes jealous and tries to break off the wedding.

Michael O'Neal and Julianne Potter have been friends for years but when Michael rings Julianne to tell her he is getting married to a lady called Kimberly Wallace she finally realizes he has to him her true feelings, which are that she loves him. When she gets there she can't do it so she tries to do everything to get them to break up.

After Michael tells his best friend, Julianne that he is getting married in four days, she goes straight to Chicago to help him get through. But she has every intention to stop the wedding and steal the groom from Kimberly. Over the next three days, she tries everything to split them up. Finally, on the day of the wedding, Jules tells Mike she loves him and kisses him, but to her disadvantage, Kimmy is watching them. Now Michael has to decide whom he loves most.

When Julianne's best friend tells her that he met a woman and they are getting married in four days, she finds out that she loves him and wants him for herself. So, she sets out to break off the wedding, but things prove to be really difficult, since the bride seems to be "the perfect woman".

It's a story of love revealed when Julianne realizes that she is in love...with a man who is going to be married to someone else. The only thought in her head is that she has to break up Michael and Kimmy. George, her boss, comes to the rescue, but helps her open her eyes to see what she needs to do.

--This is one of the most uproariously funny mainstream Hollywood movies to come along in a long while. A popcorn movie, a chick flick, that leaves a lot to be desired all around in the ethics department.The story is funny and its something that you can relate to and learn from, like to learn how to let go of someone.

I love Julia Roberts but in this woeful tale, she fails to come across as her typical vulnerable and endearing self.

Two thumbs up for this movie.
