Bridesmaids Personal Response
Bridesmaids – Personal Response.

'Bridesmaids' directed by Paul Feig, is my all time favourite comedy. It's the type of funny that makes your muscles ache from laughing so hard. I found the characters and the lines to be totally hilarious. The protagonist is Annie, a middle aged women who's cake business failed, and currently works at a jewelers thanks to her mother. Annie's best friend is engaged to be married and she wants Annie to be her maid of honour. The bridal party consists of 4 others: Becca, a newly wed who has never been with another man. Rita, a mother of 3 boys who wants nothing more to get away from her family of men. Meagan, the grooms sister who is incredibly tom boy with a hint of kinky. Last but not least, Helen, an incredibly rich, upper class friend of Lillian's who is jealous of Annie and Lillian's friendship. Things get beyond crazy with the 5 of these stir crazy women on a trip to Paris. They create a whirlwind of entertainment for the more mature (being R18). The lines are what what makes this movie. They are perfectly scripted and they left me gasping for breath. (Annie very intoxicated) "What kind of name is 'Stove' anyways? What are you, an appliance?" and
(Flight attendent tells Annie she isn't aloud to sit in first class) "Oooh this is a very strict plane. Welcome to Germany (German accent ) Aufwiedersehen assholes!"
There are so many hilarious moments in this movie. For example, the whole bridal party get food poisoning while they are at an upper class dress fitting and they all end up with violent diarrhea. Lillian has no choice but to take a dump in the street, Rita vomits in the toilet and Becca vomits in her hair and Meagan lifts up her dress, sits on top of the sink and screams about her violent diarrhea:
"It's coming out of me like hot lava!"
This movie is fulled with hilarious lines and legendary acting. Bridesmaids is the type of movie which shows an adventure every girl wants to experience with their friends one

    Knocked Up presents the audience with real life issues that society does not speak about in most cases, and this is not a bad thing. It raises awareness, and allows the viewer to examine and question the themes brought up in the film. Although screwball romantic comedies are continuously watched by older generations, they are a thing of the past, and Knocked Up, and other similar films, are now taking center stage in the genre of romantic comedy--whether older generations accept them or…

    First of all, it is a thriller and action film. The non-stop martial arts action compiled with the conflict between the characters will keep the audience entertained and engaged. Secondly, the central plot of the relationship between the Bride and Bill, and the question of what became of their baby, will hook the audience in from the beginning and keep them hooked until the very end. The questions surrounding their relationship and the Bride’s history with his group of assassins become central right at the beginning of the film and the mystery is not completely solved until the end of the film, keeping the audience guessing the entire…

    For instance, Annie is forced to show her combative side as she repeatedly faces off with Captain Keller to be able to teach Helen better. For example, Annie and Captain Keller argue at the breakfast table over how to teach Helen, and Captain Keller exclaims, "'I fail to see where you have taught her anything yet, Miss Sullivan!' to which Annie responds angrily, 'I'll begin this minute if you'll leave the room, Captain Keller! (Gibson 668). Captain Keller desperately wants to have peace at the breakfast table; however, Annie interrupts that peace by demanding that he leave the room. Annie knows that, in order for her to be able to discipline Helen, Captain Keller and Kate must leave the room so that they cannot interfere. In addition, Annie requests another week to teach Helen without the interference of her family, and Captain Keller exclaims, "And what would one more week accomplish? We are more than satisfied, you've done more than we ever thought possible, taught her constructive--"(691). Captain Keller is more than satisfied because Annie has taught Helen manners and how to behave. Annie is frustrated with the Kellers because she knows that Helen's learning manners is only the…

    The producers couldn’t have hired better actors for the roles of Thomas and Victor and the script was as if it wasn’t even a script. It seemed like it just came so naturally to the characters. If someone came to me asking for examples of a movie with really good acting, I would probably recommend this movie, but otherwise. I would say not to waste your time and watch something more enjoyable, like the romantic comedy “The Wedding…

    One thing I generally enjoyed the way they portrayed most of the characters. The characters had certain aspects to them that were exaggerated, and made it humorous but obvious what and who they were trying to portray. Though it was almost the border line of stereotyping the characters into a typical classification of a college liberal arts professor, a nun (personally my favorite), or a pair of over dramatic teenagers who are love struck half the time or too busy pouting with each other like the norm for a overdramatic teenage girl, besides, stereotypes exsist for a reason (not that they're right all the time either) . But all in all, that's what made them enjoyable, and able to laugh at. The costumes were also very helpful in portraying the characters and their personality. The costumes had a way of portraying these characters through half-stereotypical peiecs, like the required turtle neck and hipster glasses for a liberal arts professor, or the obligatory blouse and siut jacket for the lawyer and you cant forget the average white girl look either, with the boots, skinny jeans, sweater and a obligatory scarf to top it all off. And the scrubs uniform for the doctor as well as the unrevealing dress for the nun couldn't go unmentioned.…

    I would recommend Me and Earl and the Dying Girl to anyone who likes a cliche movie where two people fall in love, and then one dies of cancer.

    John Adams

    One particular scene that stood out to me was where the man that challenged John Hancock by calling him a smuggler got tarred and feathered. This scene shows that the most affluent men in the colonies were the leaders, the ones with the most power. Mr. Hancock defended himself by saying “I am an honest man being strangled by monopoly” just as a colonist yelled “shame on you!” to the other man. Mr. Hancock commanded the colonists to show the man a lesson, when the man tried to run, the colonists caught him and ripped his clothes off, poured hot tar on him and then the feathers. Samuel and John Adams watch the whole thing. Mr. Adams, talking to Mr. Samuel Adams says “Do you approve of brutal and illegal act to enforce political principles?” I liked this scene particularly because it shows more about John Adams’ character. He was a just man.…

    Bridesmaids Movie Review

    • 636 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Bridesmaids is a terrifically funny, smart, and emotional ensemble comedy. Some may say it’s the female version of The Hangover, while others may think it’s quite similar to Bride Wars. This movie pulls off the amazingly uncanny trick of being both brutal and gentle at the same time. I highly recommend this movie to all audiences over the age of 17. The unexpected truth of being a bridesmaid is revealed, but in the end, Kristen Wigg (Annie) persuades you that there is a greater light at the end of the tunnel. Despite the chaos, lifelong friendships end up being what truly matters.…

    My Big Fat Greek Wedding was absolutely hilarious in my opinion. In a sense the entire movie was about this relatively old below average looking greek girl who lived in a culturally bias greek family that wanted her to get married to a greek man. Her name is Tula and she is a smart girl working for the familys greek restaruant almost religiously day after day without a "life" as her father implies, which basically means she hasnt found a greek man yet. She eventually meets a non-greek man who she falls in love with and wants to marry but she is stressed out because she is afraid of her family reacting in a horrible way. Eventually, things somewhatwork out between both sides of the family and tula gets married. Love is a funny thing, what almost breaks the family apart brings them together in the end.…
