English Summary:
Julianne Potter (Julia Roberts), a 27-year-old New York City restaurant critic, receives a call from her lifelong friend Michael O'Neal (Dermot Mulroney). In college, the two made an agreement that if neither of them were married by the time they turned 28, they would marry each other. Three weeks before her 28th birthday, Michael tells her that in four days, he will marry Kimmy Wallace (Cameron Diaz), a 20-year-old University of Chicago student from a wealthy family, and the daughter of the owner of the Chicago White Sox.
Julianne is disappointed that Michael will marry someone whom she perceives as being so wrong for him, and someone he has known for such a short time. She realizes that she is in love with Michael, and heads to Chicago, intent on sabotaging his wedding. Soon after arriving she meets Kimmy, who asks her to be the maid of honor. This sets off a subplot in which Julianne must pretend to be the dutiful maid of honor while secretly scheming ways to prevent the wedding from happening. When trying on dresses, Michael walks in on Julianne in her underwear as he tells her that she looks great, leaving her to think that she still has a chance to get him back. She also engages in petty sabotage—for example, taking Kimmy and Michael to a karaoke bar after discovering that Kimmy is a terrible singer.
Hungarian Summary:
A film ősöreg kérdésre válaszol: lehet-e igaz barátság, de csakis barátság férfi és nő között. Nem. Julianne furcsa szerződést köt egyetemi évfolyamtársával, Michaellel. Ha 28 éves korukig egyikük sem szeret bele másba, összeházasodnak. Ám addig csupán a legjobb barátságban élnek. Sokáig tökéletesen működik a dolog. Michael azonban az utolsó pillanatban megtalálni látszik az igazit, sőt meg is kéri a kezét. Julianne ekkor döbben rá, hogy mekkora szamár.
