Take a ‘Leap Year’-style setting, add the plot of ‘27 Dresses,’ and top it off with a scene that references superior Lindsay Lohan movies like ‘Just My Luck.’

This post contains spoilers for Irish Wish. The movie’s central conceit—Lohan is Maddie, a hapless book editor who inadvertently sets one of her best friends up with the author she’s secretly in love with, then uses magic to test-run the romance she’s long dreamed of—merely reheats elements of movies that are already getting endlessly rewatched.

But while Rupert Everett’s George gets to escape his landline lockup to join the wedded festivities, Jane Seymour was likely all-too-happy to keep her Iowan high school principal character in exile—where all of her scenes as Maddie’s mother could likely be shot in a single day. 27 Dresses While there are traces of all those other films, no film gets more flagrantly copied in Irish Wish than 2008’s 27 Dresses.
