= "Bridesmaids" = “Bridesmaids” is a movie filled with female driven comedy. There are six starring actresses Kristen Wilig, Maya Rudolph, Rose Byrne, Melissa McCarthy, Wendi McLendon-Convey and Ellie Kemper. All the actresses were funny and played their characters amazingly, they used friendships and everyday situations to make the movie even more hilarious. The movie was fun filled and looked like it was heaps of fun to make.

The characters were genuine which made them more believable and the actors also played the roles amazingly. They had normal problems which helped the audience relate to them therefore it became more interesting to watch. The characters also had normal emotions to the problems happening in their lives and went on a journey to figure out the solutions. In this particular scene Annie (one of the main characters) was terrified of planes and had to go on one with the other bridesmaids. While they were flying the lady next to her said she had a dream last night and that she was in it then she saw the plane crash. Annie started freaking out and went to the Lillian (Annie’s best friend) for some help. Helen (Lillian’s good friend) gave her some pills and said she should have some alcohol to make them work faster. She did exactly that then when they set in she got up and started yelling and screaming that there was something going on. That was an incredibly funny scene that will have everyone laughing.

The characters face challenges with their friendships. Even though there is a lot of conflict in some scenes some people who were likely never to talk became good friends. At the start of the movie it is mainly about Annie and Lillian’s long friendship and how their lives are changing. Lillian meets Helen through her fiancé and becomes close friends with her. Lillian spends a lot of time with Helen and Annie begins to feel threatened by her because she is much richer and prettier than she is. Annie starts to compete with Helen and she responds by competing as well so throughout the movie their characters are butting heads trying to impress Lillian more than the other. This was a great way to add lots of humour to the movie and make it more relatable to the audience.

The characters are placed in everyday situations which are exaggerated to add humour. Their emotions and problems are used as fuel to take the situations out of control so when people watch the movie they laugh because they can imagine or have had that happen to them. An example is when Annie has finally had enough of Helen’s perfect presence that she cracks it at Lillian’s engagement party. Annie starts yelling at Lillian and saying all these mean things about Helen. This scene caused a lot of tension between the characters. The film used the situations to pull out the character’s ‘dark side’ which really added great effect to the end result.

The film was absolutely amazing and was simple so everyone could understand the situations. It was such a funny movie with so many unforgettable moments. The movie is definitely worth seeing and a must have on DVD. ‘Bridesmaids” is one of the best comedy movies ever made.
