ronswansong: blueberry-mary: mattchew03: changetheratio: So! “Bridesmaids” looks awesome, has gotten great reviews, and includes ridiculous talent including Kristen Wiig, Paul Feig,Ellie Kemper, Judd Apatow, Maya Rudolph, Jon Hamm, Rose Byrne, Melissa McCarthy, Jill Clayburgh (legend alert!*) and random members of Wilson Phillips. There are lots of reasons to see it (hilarity; supporting women in comedy; Jon Hamm shirtless) and there are lots of reasons for DUDES to see it (hilarity; picking up women supporting women in comedy, who are invariably hot; picking up women supporting women in comedy, who are invariably hot; I’m pretty sure you’ve heard of Judd Apatow). I was heartily disappointed that this movie sucked. WHAT, is wrong with you? It was so amazinggggg! Okay, I think this is what my problem was with it: People keep calling it The Hangover with women. But this movie only teeters on the raunchy Apatow-ness that made The Hangover so great. It either needed to go all the way or accept itself being a girls’ BFF movie. It had some funny moments, but the script was REALLY weak, and I didn’t like how stereotypical Melissa McCarthy’s character was. It had so much potential and could have been so much better than it turned out to be.
