Review
A star rating of 5 out of 5.
Karen Krizanovich
With an incredible ensemble comedy cast, Bridesmaids is a heady, hilarious romp through western female tribal-bridal culture. Loser singleton Kristen Wiig is asked by lifelong pal Maya Rudolph to be maid of honour at her upcoming wedding. But their friendship is torn asunder by Rudolph's new friend, icky perfectionist Rose Byrne, who undermines and upstages Wiig at every turn. The script (co-written by Wiig) and direction (from Paul Feig) makes for one smart film - produced no less by gross-out genius Judd Apatow. The film is spiked with outrageous scenes that show off Wiig's lightning-quick comedy timing, while credit should also go to Chris O'Dowd as her love interest and Melissa McCarthy as the awkward but lovable oddball in the bridal party.
