A super surprising 91% on Rotten Tomatoes, with a healthy 137 reviews.

A skim of some of the reviews give Kristen Wiig particularly high marks.

Bridesmaids

I have a free ticket to see it for buying Forgetting Sarah Marshall on Blu-ray at Best Buy. I'm going to see it tonight.

One critic on TV here in Canada reviewed it last night and he said while it might look like "the hangover" for women it's really not. He says that the movie surprisingly has some heart to it but it's definitely not a movie to take your mother too. He also said despite the title and the theme of the movie this is one flick that guys would enjoy watching with their Significant Other.

Critics that enjoyed other Apatow produced comedies have said they think this one is his best yet.

Bold statement to make. I'm not really a fan of Wiig when she acts goofy (the scene of her dancing as she's pulled over makes me cringe) but I do like the female cast and the concept.

The part of the trailer that made me cringe was when the fat girl said, "I want to apologize, but I'm not sure what end that came out of". That bathroom humor seems unnecessary and cringe-worthy. Subsequent trailers I've seen at the theater have taken that line out.

There is lots of that type of humor in the movie, which I was surprised about.

Went to see it last night with the wife, overall it was pretty good. A little bit long and drawn out, but had a lot of funny parts to it. The wife loved it so overall a successful trip to the movies.
