The TVI Take

Anne Fletcher's 2008 Katherine Heigl romcom whose structural achievement is the always-a-bridesmaid premise rendered as actual career inquiry rather than as joke. James Marsden's editor-character is unusual romcom male-lead work, he's the actual antagonist for most of the film.

Genre-competent rather than genre-elevating, but cleanly executed.
