* CatharsisFactor: The movie wants the audience to condemn Jane for humiliating Tess in front of their friends and family, but honestly, plenty of people enjoyed the living hell out of watching Tess get LaserGuidedKarma for lying to George so he'd fall in love and marry her and for being such a selfish brat to Jane that she let someone cut up her mother's wedding dress knowing ''full well'' that Jane wanted to wear it at her own wedding. Not to mention she's a grown woman who can't even be bothered to clean and cook for herself or anyone else. Jane could have pulled them both aside and exposed Tess that way, but given Tess' ridiculously bratty behavior, it's hard not to cheer when Tess gets humiliated.

* UnintentionallySympathetic: Jane after she [[spoiler: publicly calls out Tess for her constant lying to George, during the wedding rehearsal dinner.]] She gets a WhatTheHellHero from her sister and her best friend, but not only is she completely right about [[spoiler:Tess being wrong for seriously and continuously lying in order to keep a relationship (and ''marriage'')]], but Tess also had a ''major'' KickTheDog moment when she cut up their late mother's wedding dress, ''knowing'' that Jane wanted to use it one day and being solely focused on herself. (Even saying it "wouldn't have fit Jane anyway" as an excuse.) Given that Jane has been an ExtremeDoormat for the whole movie (and her entire life in putting Tess' wants first since they were kids), it's hard to blame Jane for finally snapping on her {{Bridezilla}} JerkAss of a sister. It's [[UnintentionallyUnsympathetic even harder to feel sorry]] for Tess given all of her lies (that would probably have ended her marriage very quickly even ''without'' any help from Jane), her ItsAllAboutMe attitude, and how she clearly doesn't seem that sorry about the way she's behaved. Even her excuse -- that she'd recently been fired from her job and dumped by her previous boyfriend, and she was trying to be someone that George wanted and who deserved him -- falls flat, since again she wasn't ''genuinely'' making an effort to be a better person and was merely pretending.
