Fatal Attraction 2 a.k.a. My Bestfriend's Wedding


There is a sudden depreciation in bloggers recently. I assume that the fall in the population of online writers is because hipsters have found a new way of conveying their first world problems and emotional shit. In contrast to this fall, there is a rise in sales of Moleskin. Wow, pen and paper, what an original idea! But that’s the price of being a purist. Either way, it’s a good thing that they’re leaving because that means I can get back to blogging. 

My Best friend’s wedding.


If I ever got anything from this movie, I would say is Julia Robert’s character is the MOST DEVIOUS and CALCULATED VILLAIN ever created for a film. You may have been fooled by her foiled attempts on breaking up Michael and Kimy’s wedding during the first parts of the movie. I could even think that she planned those failed efforts to make her more endearing in the end. But not me. In the end, Jules won. Yes, you read it right, THE FOOD CRITIC GOT THE SPORTS WRITER IN THE END.

You have been blinded by the funny scenes, butt-less Cameron Diaz, low pro Paul Giamatti and a singing gay prostitute. This movie is about how devious a woman can get when she wants something that bad. It’s Fatal Attraction with big teeth and frizzy hair.

If I ask you, who did Michael end up with in the end? You would say Kimberly right? The choice is simple because the movie ended with them getting married. Wrong! Michael ended up with Jules with Millions of dollars.   


You remember Jules and Michael’s song? Of course you do, you’re probably singing it right now. Well, after the bullshit speech of Jules in the girl’s bathroom, the next scene was the reception. That’s when Jules gave another bullshit speech about her dream and blah, blah, blah. Then she says something like, “This song is on loan while you find your own song”. And what did the newlyweds do? They danced to the song. WHAT THE HELL? This was the song of Michael and Jules, the girl who tried to break up their wedding, and Kim just danced away. No, no, no, Kimy was just keeping it cool because people were around. Jules had planted the seed of animosity and it shall grow into a tree of loathing. You think Kimy would just let that go? It’s their first dance as a couple and their dancing to Michael’s ex-girlfriend’s theme song. 


The next time Michael comes home late smelling of booze, he’ll get a fast trip down memory lane. And when Michael’s fed up, she’ll divorce the hell out of Kimy and get out of the marriage a rich man. There is no way Jules didn’t know this. This was planned, maybe even planned with her gay friend.

This movie was written by a Ronald Bass and directed by P.J. Hogan. Both people responsible for the story are men. It’s their way of reminding all the men out there that women are always in competition. Now with this information, I release all you men to the world.
