Bridesmaids Fast & Furious Knocked Up The Big. Staring Kristen Wiig, Annie Mumolo, Damon Wayans Jr., and Dornan, the film was written by both Wiig and Mumolo, which is why it's giving off Bridesmaids vibes since the pair cowrote that as well. When Will the Disney Movie Be Streaming Stream It or Skip It: 'An Unexpected Christmas' on Hallmark Takes a Tired Premise and Makes It Wired. If the ridiculous antics Star (short for Starbara) and Barb get up to in the trailer aren't enough - including but not limited to making and eating hot dog soup, touching feet in the pool, and playing with the lights in their hotel room - there's Jamie Dornan seemingly hating his life and attempting to rip off his shirt.Įverything about the film is tailor-made for folks who use outdated slang unironically and love a good vintage sweatshirt. I'm not sure what it is about watching two Midwestern gals leaving their small town for a "glamorous" beachside vacation, but I am HOOKED.

But although Bridesmaids isn’t revolutionary in its format, it is almost flawless in its execution: even with the formulaic jokes in the mix, this is an intelligent and amusing gem. So why the marketing campaign? Bridesmaids isn’t a comment on Hall Pass or The Hangover, or the other misogynist comedies that roll into multiplexes year after year. It’s no coincidence that we don’t even meet the groom that Lillian’s spending the rest of her life with Bridesmaids is more concerned with giving its stars time to let loose their skills on camera. Well matched by the excellent Chris O’Dowd, Annie strikes up a romantic subplot with his loveable Irish cop, but it’s her relationship with Maya Rudolph that defines the movie – Wiig’s co-written script is about friendship, not girls chasing boys. She bakes cupcakes by herself, devours Jon Hamm’s pork, gets stuck with a 10-foot gate between her legs and remains nothing less than awesome at all times.

Kristen Wiig – the first of many lead roles, after countless stellar supporting turns – nails the painful humour of her midlife crisis. Inevitably, perhaps, for an Apatow-produced vehicle, the movie descends into a gross-out segment, but Bridesmaids excels because when they’re not vomiting in each other’s hair, the performers rise above it.

For example, the gorgeous, rich and probably evil Helen (Byrne) – Lillian’s other, new best friend. There are dress fittings, nights out, a flight to Vegas – all the things you’d expect to see in a mainstream comedy.īut while the amusingly inappropriate Megan (Melissa McCarthy) may not get much to do other than entertainingly hit on an unsuspecting air marshal, other characters are superbly developed. We follow Annie (Wiig), as she attempts to play maid of honour to her best friend, Lillian (Rudolph). But then, you already knew that.īridesmaids isn’t revolutionary in its format. For those who had missed Whip It and Easy A, a crowd of critics were lining up to shock you with their revelation: women are funny too. With its bright pink poster plastered with The Hangover-bashing quotes, Bridesmaids was touted as a ground-breaking piece of comedy back in 2011.
