Harmless entertainment

Rating: 6/10 (19 May 2011)

The ads and trailers tell you what to expect and that's what is delivered. A female driven comedy. As the star and writer Kristen Wiig deserves a lot of credit and some of the blame for this one.
The male characters in the script are dull, flatly written, or in one case just a jerk.
The humor will not always appeal to everyone. Some people my not appreciate the barf and worse in the bathroom.
The movie feels long at over two hours and individual scenes seem to go on longer then necessary. How many times have we seen the drunk on an airplane? There were some cute bits in the jewelry store. The puppy favors was good for a laugh.
It's a harmless summer escape. Go with her to this one. Then you can drag her to "Hangover 2".
