Chick Flicks

So recently I watched two movies and they really made me think. Both were in the 'Chick Flick' category, In Her Shoes and The Wedding Date. Lets break down what exactly my problem is here, we'll start with In Her Shoes (I saw that one first).


Now for my problem, and if you didn't watch this movie you might not want to read on cause I'm gonna spill the beans. The story is about two sisters, one successful one a complete free loader. The only thing they have in common is their shoes size. So the free loading sister is sleeping on her sisters couch and after her sister leaves for work the 'good' sisters boyfriend comes over. Well free loading sister is mad at good sister cause of whatever reason and sleeps with the boyfriend in the good sisters BED! Well who the heck cares about the rest of the movie my issue is that the good sister forgave the free loading sister. I'm sorry I love family and I know they come above all, but some things are just unforgivable. I mean it's not even about the boyfriend, it's about the betrayal! So how was this movie supposed to be empowering? What is it supposed to be saying to us as women? Screw your sisters man and if she loves you enough she'll just forgive you? Whatever...

Moving on to movie number two, The Wedding Date.


Okay now this movie I thought was really cute through most of it. Basically girl needs date, her sister is getting married, she's the matron of honor and her ex is the best man. So she hires a date, now I don't think I realized at first that she was actually HIRING a date. Like I got it but it didn't click that that would make him a HOOKER! So anyway towards the end of the movie we find out ...... the sister that is getting married had been sleeping with the other sisters ex most of the time they were together. That is why he broke up with her! And guess what else? The MOH sister forgave her! Awww how sweet, NOT! So the slut sister gets forgiven and the good sister falls for the male hooker.

What am I missing here? I just don't seem to be grasping why these movies are so good? I mean they are saying sleep around, you'll be forgiven. And don't worry if you have messed up relationships for awhile you'll have a happily ever after with a male whore. LOL, I don't know. Maybe it's just me. Maybe I shouldn't be blogging tonight. I seem to be having a pissy out look on things.
