I consider myself a fan of "low brow" humor. Don't get me wrong, I love my smart and witty humor ala Woody Allen. However, I have no problem switching over to crude jokes and physical pratfalls to grace a smile and to induce chuckles. I really enjoyed "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and "Horrible Bosses", hell I still think "Dumb & Dumber" is hysterical. With that being said, I was eager to watch "Bridesmaids" since I had heard only great things … more

*** out of **** "Bridesmaids" is exactly the kind of film where you don't expect too much of it going in. I mean, how good can what appears to be a "feminist comedy" really be? Seldom are they notable; or even decent. And the fact that it's being billed as "The Hangover" with an almost all-female cast may also turn a few heads in the wrong direction. I can understand why. Fellow females may feel that the film is giving people the wrong impression when it comes to a solid … more

Star Rating: I’m not going to make this about how women can be just as crude as men, since I’ve personally never believed otherwise. I guess I’m just progressive that way. The simple fact is, Bridesmaids is relentlessly vulgar, and there are times when it really isn’t very funny, but it tells a story, and better still, it has characters I could actually care about. This is key, because those latter elements have been noticeably absent … more

'Bridesmaids' is directed by Paul Feig and written by Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo. I have to say right off the bat...This is one of the funniest films I've seen since 'Hangover'. From the opening scene, you know what kind of movie this is going to be. It's morning. Annie (Kristen Wiig) wakes up in bed next to Jon Hamm. His character doesn't even have a name. He's sleezy...He's rich and … more

I have always wondered what would happen if all of the "dirty laundry" us women carry around was aired (or screened) in front of the general public. Not just our moments of madness when it comes to life, work, and dare I say relationships... but what if we all just let it hang out? Well, Bridesmaids does just that and it seems like there is no turning back from where this film takes it. From the opening scene (which I will not give away) you are immediately … more

Kristen Wiig has been a stand out in the Saturday Night Live cast for some time now, and for those of us unwilling to stay up late for a show that is erratic at best we may have been missing out. Her talent has been noticed by Emmy voters recently, but it was in 2007 that Judd Apatow cast her as the snarky E! executive. Since she has grown into quite the starlet and has put all her talents together and teamed up with executive producer Apatow to star and co-write, along with Annie Mumolo, in the … more

For years now, the boys have been yukking it up at the movies for our enjoyment and they have been doing it as crassly as humanly possible. These male bonding … more

15 - 125mins - Comedy - 24th June 2011 Many people have been describing this as the female version of The Hangover. Those people however forgot to do one tiny thing- watch both films! Yes both films revolve around the preparation for a wedding and contain their fair share of low brow comedy but that is where the similarities end. Bridesmaids follows Annie (Kristen Wiig), the maid of honour for her best friend Lillian's (Maya Rudolph) wedding. While she is preparing for the … more

And so the masses cried out,"Where is the twenty-something gross-out comedy for women?" and lo, the gods of cinema did smile and outpoured Bridesmaids, the latest effort from producer Judd Apatow, the genius mind behind such films as The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up. The movie centers on Annie (Kristian Wiig, who also wrote the screenplay), whose best friend Lillian (Maya Rudolph), is about to get married. Her newest friend (Rose Byrne), a type-A who organizes everyone's … more

What a fun cast of dynamic characters! I love how different each woman is, but how they bond and mesh together. Bridesmaid fitting scene = too hilariously disgusting. The sister-in-law = disgustingly hilarious. And I found Annie to be incredibly relatable. Actually, all of the women were in some way. Love.
