After seeing the very funny movie Bridesmaids featuring Kristen Wiig, star from the hit comedy show
Saturday Night Live, I knew this film would have an interesting yet big impact
on the entertainment industry. Kristen’s
character Annie, as well as her co-stars Melissa McCarthy (Megan), Maya Rudolph
(Lillian), and Rose Byrne (Helen) together create such an ensemble in which each
characters’ uniquely developed personalities contributed to the recipe of
comedy perfection. With comedy expert
and producer Judd Apatow and director Paul Feig also on the team, this film lead
to break several barriers in terms of social norms specifically in terms of
societies perception of women. It
relieves the always perfect, put-together image we are so used to seeing on the
big screen and portrays the very vulnerable, more unguarded reality through
frequent profanity and scenes relating to unusually spoken about or seen bodily
functions if you will. Nonetheless, this
movie has become the foundation for women in comedy for future productions and
even current movies such as The Heat.
Also
directed by Paul Feig, The Heat,
takes us to a whole new level of comedy.
I can honestly say I have never seen a movie more funny than this
one. The jokes and sarcasm are endless
and the chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy is
brilliant. Id recommend everyone to
check it out because I guarantee you will laugh at one point or another. The characters, of which they play, are quite unfiltered and keep surprising you with clever remarks from opening scene to finishing
credits.
