Bridesmaids

Synopsis:
Annie's best friend is getting married.  Now she's trying to make everything perfect for her big day.

Favorite one-line review from a different critic:
“The funniest movie of the year. Unlike 'Hangover,' the film doesn't rely on sexism, homophobia and racial epithets to hit a punch line." – Clay Cane -

My Review:
The opening scene is instantly uncomfortable, shocking, odd and funny.  It does a great job at setting the tone for the rest of the movie.  I honestly didn't know what to expect from this movie.  I thought it was just going to be a female version of The Hangover.  I was surprised to find that it is its own movie.  It had its own style, its own comedic timing and was ten times better than The Hanover 2.  Kristin Wigg is perfect in the role and has genius comedic timing (too bad she can't save SNL).

The directing is surprising good along with the production value.  Most movies that star SNL actors have the budget of a porno and the production value of...well...a porno.  And the acting of...you get the point.  Bridemaids is well acted, well written and has plenty of clever and fresh humor.  And that's all I'm really looking for out of a comedy.

Rating:

The opposite of suck.
