Review of Bridesmaids (2011) by Lahaine — 28 Dec 2011
I finally took time out to see Bridesmaids, and plain and simple: It wasn't worth it. This is commonly cited as the female version of the Hangover, and I can see why; Its loud, raunchy and most of all it's Overrated.
The movie is sluggish and filled to the brim with simple minded, toilet humor. It has some laughs here and there but overall the humor was forced (eg. the food poisoning scene). Story-wise, the movie may have been fine, but this was overshadowed by all the mess.
It is also bizarre that Mellisa McCarthy is getting this much attention, for a substandard, useless performance.
