A solid $24 million this weekend, but with the great reviews the film should have legs to make a bundle.

Saw it. Hilarious. Definitely think the film did mostly everything right for a comedy.

Didn't feel it was too long either. And the one scene that cake mentions was fine to me. I don't really consider that bathroom humor.

Gotta agree with anyone that says Wiig did a great job. Really liked her performance. She might actually have a future as a comedy leading lady.

Have always been a fan of Rose Byrne and think she is one of the most underrated female actors. Everything I've seen her in, she's a different person which Wiig can't really do (but, Wiig does what she does well).

Melissa McCarthy stole the hilarious side-kick role. Love her delivery on lines. Even the fart joke got me to chuckle because she delivered it so well.

A bit disappointed that Maya Rudolph almost disappears in this film. She doesn't really do anything funny or say anything funny. She's just there.

Good film. Watch it.

Really liked her (Byrne) in Damages. As you may know it's been picked up for a season 4 and 5 by DirectTV. Since I have Cox Cable now I'll have to wait for the DVD. Season 4 starts in July.

Just saw it.
Hilarious.
I KNEWWWWW the previews did not speak well for the film.
I just had a feeling.
Megan (the big girl) was soooo funny in the film, and from my impressions looked terrible from the trailers.

Saw it with the gf and she loved it too.
So many good parts.

FANTASTIC movie.

Great laughs, no matter what you got hanging b/w your legs.

Yep, my wife and I were doubled over in the theatre many times. Especially during the bridal shop scene and where Kristen Wiig tries to get the cop's attention in the car.

We really never do agree anymore!
