Re: Bridesmaids-Critics Love It

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.
