27 DRESSES (2008)
One of the cheesiest rom-com sub-genres is definitely the wedding rom-com. You know, the one where the sweet, hard-working, young woman gets stuck in the midst of a wedding she wishes was hers. They're predictable, corny and always have a happy ending. 27 Dresses is no exception.

Katherine Heigl takes the lead as an obsessive assistant who is secretly in love with her boss and whose life is completely absorbed by wedding planning--dress fittings, registering the bride and groom, picking the linens-- and her duties as a loyal bridesmaid. Of course, she's never confessed her true feelings to her boss and when her younger sister comes into town for a visit and steals him away, Jane's (Heigl) life is ruined. And to top it all off, she's being pestered and followed by a hunky journalist who's crushing on her. (Wait, why is that an issue?)
It's completely a guilty pleasure. Do not watch this film if you're looking for a complex narrative, break-out acting or brilliant directing. Watch this film with your favourite bag of potato chips, gummy bears and a Snuggie. Get ready to see lame done right.
More cheese?
