Damigella in incognito

Some silly situations lead to some laughs, but not rolling on the floor.

The acting is not good. I've never liked Brooke Burns' acting and this movie is no different. She doesn't come off as natural. In this movie she plays a reserved woman and for that she doesn't need to act. Still she is an attractive woman who catches your attention. There were a few actors who overplayed a little even for comedy. Nicole Pagg, as Daisy,i had some good moments but mixed overall. Justin Baldoni, as Jake, was OK.

As to the mystery, the clues were there. I missed them. Right before the climax, Tanya replays them in her head which is nice for the viewer.

Undercover Bridesmaid sees Brooke Burns as a once jilted security agent going undercover as a bridesmaid in order to protect a bride to be as she has received threatening letters and her father is sparing no expense to keep her safe.

The agent rather stiff about the girly pre- marital rituals gets into the wedding spirit when the groomsman turns up as her attraction to him lightens her up.

This is a typical Hallmark production aimed squarely at ladies with shades of Miss Congeniality but with a lower budget and less laughs. Brooke looks too old to be hitting it with the groomsman and the romance subplot comes across as awkward. However the mystery is diverting enough with enough red herrings to keep you mild entertained.

Hallmark tries a variation on MISS CONGENIALITY as Brooke Burns plays Tanya, a competent young woman working for a private security firm, goes undercover at a rich man's daughter's wedding.

The script is decent, but it feels as if the emotional transitions lack much subtlety as characters change but do so in neat, ratcheting leaps suddenly from one position to another. The script tries to do too much for the cast and crew to handle, dealing with family issues, the mystery aspects -- tracking down who, if anyone, is trying to harm the bride -- and the revelation of Tanya's emotional background.

Miss Burns is all right as Tanya, but it's hard to differentiate the character's discomfort with the situation from Miss Burns' ability as an actress. Nicole Paggi is surprisingly good as Daisy, the bride-to-be who starts as a ditz and remains one throughout, but one with heart.

UNDERCOVER BRIDESMAID is a good Hallmark Channel TV-movie that shows signs of some good work here and there. The uneven realization of details keeps it from being exceptional, but it should be a pleasant experience for anyone who is likely to see it.

Light, light, light. I was amazed the director was actually not a woman. The idea behind the script was not bad at all, but the movie didn't make it much further than a chick flick.

The acting and filming and music are comparable to the ones used in TV- shows like sex and the city, the characters are living clichés and the plot is predictable.

Nonetheless, i had to laugh a couple of times, whether it was intentionally funny or not.

This is a feel-good movie for the ones amongst us who do not want to think to much while watching it.

This was much different and better than I was expecting. The beginning fight scene just seemed so cheesy, I was groaning, but the rest of the movie turned out well! While I feel it was unrealistic for the bride and friends to be SO warm and welcoming, being millionaire heiresses, I suppose you never know!
