It’s very funny and sweet and even a little weepy, and it has maybe the best scene ever filmed of dirty talk gone wrong. In other words, it’s a Schumer/Apatow production — may there be more of them to come.
Sweet is not how Schumer wants Trainwreck to go down. She wants to explode rom-com clichés and replace them with something fierce and ready to rumble. Done.

Trainwreck is one of the best romantic comedies in years. Not only that, it's also one of the best comedies in general. Amy Schumer is a comedic genius who isn't afraid to approach any topic. She tends to drift toward topics related to sex and promiscuity and this is where she shines. Trainwreck had me laughing from beginning to end, while also enjoying the story it was trying to tell. Loved everything about Trainwreck!
Report
Trainwreck, about a commitment-phobic NYC writer, is the funniest film of the summer — outrageous and out to make you think.
With each new scene, Schumer manages to offer wonderful little surprises. It wasn't long before I found myself excited at the beginning of each new sequence in Trainwreck, just to see how Schumer would make me laugh next.
Appropriately, the best jokes in Trainwreck are unprintable, or too winding to describe. Schumer's sexual vocabulary and observational skills get a workout, surrounded by an occasionally surprising cast of foils.
Amy the writer has tried to reconcile her gift for whip-smart, razor-sharp comedy sketches with the demands of a feature film. On the whole she hasn’t pulled it off — the movie veers sharply off track toward the end. Still, the sum of its most memorable parts is great fun.
The script doesn't revel in Amy's quite harmless flaws, or at least examine them in the spirit of benevolence.
This movie showed a completely different side of Schumer's sense of humor. It is not as intelligent and thought-provoking as Inside Amy Schumer, but just as wry and witty and even more more honest and raunchy. This woman has been brave enough to prove to everyone that there's nothing brave about having a ****.

Who: Amy Schumer, Stefon, AND HIS NAME IS JOHN CENA, Lebron "The Man, The Myth, The Legend" James, and Harry Potter as a dog walker
What: Judd Apatow's worst movie to date
Where: Inside Amy Schumer
When (Can I watch again): Meh
Why: With more vulgarity than sentimentality, this movie is a step away from "The 40 Year Old Virgin" or "Knocked Up" and it's hard to truly appreciate unless you are a huge fan of Amy Schumer
Report
The trailer of Trainwreck had me believing this movie would be more humorous than actually the story of a young woman dealing with her inability to have relationships. Overall I enjoyed the message this film held, but the slapstick and humour did not work as well. Amy Schumer may face overexposure and turning off her public.

Trainwreck is quite a fitting title for this film. When it's not bad, it's bland, and when it's not bland, it's wincingly cringey. Definitely not a good comedy, and way, way too long of a runtime for what it is trying to do. You will suffer through these two hours.
Report
It's exactly what it calls itself, a Trainwreck. It's unfunny, boring, and predictable.....comedy. This is aimed at a audience for specific, that it would be pretty boring for anyone else.
