I’ll admit there were enough chuckles to keep my interest, but the story is episodic and doesn’t hang together very well. It is at its best when the bridesmaids are interacting, a bit slow in the “romantic” bits and “roommate” bits. The Bonus Features on the DVD were a lot of fun, from the deleted scenes and gag reel to “line-o-rama,” which is just a ton of one-liners strung together at a fast pace. Melissa McCarthy is a hoot!

So much bathroom humor, but Chris O’Dowd SERIOUSLY, YES.

This, another project from SNL alumni, falls between “Mean Girls” (very good) and “Tommy Boy” (quite horrid), possibly saving Wiig’s film-career post-“MacGruber”. This film is co-written by her, and is at its best a collection of sketches and at its worse just that, ending up with a fractured feel. It’s not as splintered as one might imagine though, giving it all a Miranda July-cum-“Garden State” feel, an indie film which at its best is ferociously funny, especially where women do feminism justice. Entertaining, yes. Recommendable? So-so.

This film had its moments but it wasn’t a laugh-ride from beginning to end. Which is ok. In some ways it seemed like a more mature, thoughtful version of Hangover.

I liked that the story didn’t completely follow the woman-is-down-on-her-luck-until-she-learns-a-valuable-lesson-and-turns-everything-around formula.

It was a bit messier than that, just like life.

Also, Chris O’Dowd is fun to watch as Officer Rhodes.
