Something Borrowed Review

Based on the original New York Times Best Sellers List novel Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin, this film offers little to the imagination. The opening scene enters with the main character Rachel played by Ginnifer Goodwin walking into a surprise 30th birthday party put on by her best friend Darcy (Kate Hudson) for her. As the party rages on into the night, we begin to meet some of the other characters including Darcy's finance, Dex (Colin Egglesfield), the focal point of the storys love triangle. Dex, the classically charming and handsome male protagonist was introduced to his finance, originally by Rachel as they were both students studying at NYU's law school. After a few too many drinks, Darcy is forced to leave the party with Dex but seemingly forgets her Chanel purse at the party. When Dex, being the perfect fiance he is, returns to retrieve the purse, encounters a lonely Rachel. Well as the standard story goes, Dex and Rachel, the long lost lovers they are, sleep together beginning the mess that makes this chick flick exactly as expected. Does Dex really love Darcy? Or should he have been with Rachel the whole time? These questions are the painstaking glue for which the film relies on leaving the audience with many predictable and obvious moments.
