    • "Bottom Line: Hathaway and Hudson, both natural charmers, are reduced to female stereotypes in this outdated comedy."—NewsdayNewsday: Review: Bride Wars (January 9, 2009)
    • "This is a Kate Hudson flick, after all (she was also one of the producers), and often as inconsequential as almost every other Kate Hudson movie of the last decade. Happily it's also something of an Anne Hathaway movie, which means that there’s a little acting in it, along with a few human emotions and two wide-pooling eyes that invite you to get lost in them."—NY TimesNY Times: Movie Review: Bride Wars (January 9, 2009)
