It is very hard for me to find something I didn't enjoy about this movie. The performances were brilliant and the dialog was clever and witty! Expand

The humour in this film is so varied, it varies from subtle dry humour to crudeness. Admittedly some of it is cringey but this is overlooked by the pure wit and amazing comedy acting from some of the funniest comedy actresses you will see. Definitely a girls film but enjoyable for guys as well, every girl will understand and relate to this film! A must see for a feel good movie! Expand

While the regular mainstream chick flick often comes across as forced pandering to womens interests and woes, Bridesmaids is a clever filmWhile the regular mainstream chick flick often comes across as forced pandering to womens interests and woes, Bridesmaids is a clever film with some genuine depth, and has believable characters and life learning situations. I found myself rooting for the lead character and her peril and later the supporting cast became equally significant. There are some VERY funny scenes that while pushing the line dont over step it, at least too far and become too vulgar or inappropriate. Bridesmaids was highly enjoyable and a great example to how romcoms can be both entertaining and genuine. Highly recommended. Expand

Bridesmaids is a bit disappointing namely because of how hit-and-miss it can be. Some of it is really very funny. Some less so. But, what wasBridesmaids is a bit disappointing namely because of how hit-and-miss it can be. Some of it is really very funny. Some less so. But, what was really a miss was the ending. Far too neat and cliche, the ending just does not work at all, especially for a film that had really built up solid characters and characters with real emotion and relatability. Unfortunately, the film goes a little cliche and silly at the end where the girl gets the guy, even if it does not make much sense. Additionally, the film has a problem that plagues many modern comedies have in that it thinks that gross out scenes and over-the-top unrealistic scenes are hysterical. Unfortunately, they are not. Bridesmaids falls for these mistakes far too often. That said, the acting is good and the cast has good chemistry. Unfortunately, it is simply not funny enough, even if it can be quite enjoyable.

However, it works very well as an indicator of the sorry state of contemporary society. The story revolves around Annie Walker, a most annoying woman who would be a perfect character for a cheap sitcom.

Annie alleged best friend Lillian is getting married and that horrendously stressing event that is an American wedding must be organized. Countless chick flicks have been there, only to underline how the true meaning of getting married and any shred of happiness are lost in the process of having so much “organized” fun.

Produced by Apatow and co-written by Kristen Wiig, who is also starring – and appearing in every scene - as main character Annie Walker. If you know a bit about movies, this can explain why it is so bad. Apatow is the king of crass, vulgar, unfunny comedies. Wiig wanted to make clear she is the star. Unfortunately, like most female comedians, she seems to think that the only way to make women “funny” is to degrade them. Surely they get plenty of humiliations in this movie, but this does not make the movie funny in any way.
