When Julianne made a deal with her best friend Michael to marry each other if, by the ripe old age of 28, they had not yet found their true love, she never really doubted it would come to pass. But jealousy rears its ugly head when she discovers he's engaged to another woman, and, what's more, that she's perfect for him. What's a jilted bride-to-be to do? (official distributor synopsis)

Basically it’s very trivial and simple, but it’s a bit of a safe bet thanks to the excellent cast. A politically correct romance that can't be completely disliked. Yes, there may be various opinions about the sentimentality, the cheapness and the predictability of this movie, but the fact is that it's definitely not another one of those wannabe funny comedies. It has very good actors, very entertaining and intelligently witty scenes; it’s a very sincere and highly watchable romance, with a big personal touch. It's not a masterpiece, but it's very entertaining. The ending is also truly unexpected. I remember some scenes by heart.
