Not horrible, just not funny


The movie as a whole wasn't that bad. It was interesting, I didn't find myself bored or looking at the clock. This is just not funny...at all. I didn't laugh one time. You can tell what its trying to be, it just never achieves it.

Smirking and having fun while watching is enjoyable dont always have to be a try hard gut buster

If you are a guy: Has a woman ever made you laugh - intentionally? Ever?

What kind of boring ass women have you met? Maybe you should get out more.

I shall now pause for giggles

reply

wow. If women are so awful, you should go become a monk.

And I'm sure they don't think you're funny either, prince charming. Go admire yourself in the mirror.

just came across this movie hours ago and watched it

story line - flat

actors - nothing spectacular, not good looking

music - cannot relate

dialogue - boring

script - not original, not funny

overall - complete waste of my time

of course, this is just me

some others may enjoy this movie, just not me

Jesus Christ, what were they trying to achieve here? worst movie i have seen in years...

A surfeit of absolutely miserable characters in a steaming pile of manure.


Only two things are actually knowable:
It is now and you are here. All else is merely a belief.

I completely agree with you
it wasn't horrible and even more profund than more comedies are but it was so mean spirited that all the jokes can't make people laugh because the three bridesmaids are so unlikable that we can't laugh with them

reply

I'm agree.

I agree as well. But I think it mostly because I can relate to Becky's issues too much. Not the weight issue, but the problems with her wedding and friendships. Hardly seem like half decent friends when they can't even stand up for the ceremony, and would rather go get a drink. To me, they didn't show they really grew at all. I don't think a friendship could be much worse than that. Any less and they are just Becky's bullies. At least most of the people I asked to be in my wedding party actually were there, minus a couple aholes.

I know what you mean. I chuckled a couple of times but mostly felt a bit bored, I don't quit during films so saw it through to the end. I found the end speech the funniest bit if I'm honest but mostly its a lot of screamy shouty girls and coke.

reply

I laughed a lot. Perhaps it takes a level of cynicism to get the humor in this movie.

My husband and I watched it last nite & we thought it was really funny. I think it's a BLACK COMEDY, which I think most people aren't getting. Seems like everyone is expecting a typical rom com or something??? The three main actresses do a great job playing sad/desperate women. And whoever said that this movie wasn't good because none of the actors are attractive, don't we all get it by now that beauty is in the eye of the beholder? I think Isla Fisher and Kirsten Dunst are super attractive.

reply

No it's not a BLACK COMEDY.
It is a sad reflection of the narcissistic society we live in but hey we all need a good laugh now and then don't we?

reply

A movie can be both a black comedy and a "sad reflection of the narcissistic society we live in." That's why Heathers was so good; it had something to say behind all the humor.

reply

I didn't find it funny but humourous in most parts, which was enough to keep me interested. Not all forms of comedy are designed to make you laugh out loud.

reply

wow I couldn't have said it any better I liked the film but it was not funny like how they were promoting it as a bridesmaids bust worst

reply

I agree. The movie was nothing special. With all the talent involved, it should have been funnier. It was just...there.
