Bridesmaids

Overview:  Life is pretty dang shabby for Annie, considering the fact that her bakery store sunked during the recession, no one loves her, and she lives with two British roommates that look like those people you'd see on "Hoarders".  As if things couldn't get any worse, Annie's BFF Lillian is getting married to a stud-muffin and she was asked to be the Maid of Honor, now it's going to get crazy all up in here!

The Good:  Much like "Horrible Bosses" C and I laughed all the way through, and I think I may have had an accident, but for my reputation's sake i'm going to blame it on the popcorn butter leaking all over.  The entire cast was SO funny with Kristen Wiig as the lead, but the person who stole practically EVERY scene was Melissa McCarthy.  In real life I'm sure she's a very pretty woman that you would want to hug about as much as the Easter Bunny, but in this movie she's made to be so disgusting that you end up loosing all faith in humanity, and almost end up jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.  In every scene she would come up with the most random tomboyish lines, that you'll no doubt be quoting for days.  It takes a lot for me to say this, but someone else who deserves some praise is Chris O'Dowd, who plays as Kristen Wiig's lover.  I don't think very many people heard of this man, but he had a breakthrough role in this one.  His main talent in this movie was not only making fun of cops, but also lightening the mood when Annie's life became a bit too chaotic.  I said it took a lot for me to say something about him, because just the other night I had a frightening Nightmare and he was in it!  I'm not going to discuss the details because it will scare me, but i'm sure there are some of you out there who already know.

The Bad:  When I said this movie made me laugh all the way through I was mostly right.  There was a part during the climax of the movie where it wasn't "as" funny because they were trying to get all the emotional stuff out of the way, that way it could be a legitimate movie.  Really there was nothing I thought was bad about this movie, and the only reason I gave the previous statement was to bring at least some "con" into the review.

The Ugly:  Other than Melissa McCarthy's hilariuosly disgusting character, the movie isn't that ugly.  For those fo you who have lost your faith in chick-flicks, fret no more, because this movie will make you squeal like a pig about to enter the slaughter house (I assume they're excited); you won't have to worry about seeing Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan making out somewhere onscreen, and I sing praises every day for that.
