Potato On the Go:
I'll be honest, at first, I was a little hesitant to check out the movie Bridesmaids (as I initially thought it's just another ordinary chick flick) but since Tatak Digitista's "Potato On the Go" section should always be on the go for movies and Solar Entertainment people are among the nicests in the industry, I took a crack of it. And after that special screening at Solar's preview room in its Makati headquarters, I just can't stop thanking them for inviting me! I really had a great, awesome, rocking time watching this smash comedy from Universal Pictures... Bridesmaids!
Directed by Paul Feig and written by Annie Mumolo and Kristen Wiig, Bridesmaids tells the story of Annie (Kristen Wiig), a maid of honor whose life unravels as she leads her bestfriend Lillian (Maya Rudolph) and a group of crazy bridesmaids Helen (Rose Byrne), Megan (Melissa McCarthy), Rita (Wendy McLendon-Covey) and Becca (Ellie Kemper) on a wild ride down to matrimony. But Annie's "car's tail light" is broken and needs a "fix" but when she finds out her best friend since childhood just got engaged, she simply must be Lillian's maid of honor, no matter what. Though in a mess with relationships, finance and career, Annie courageously and crazily went through the stressful pre-wedding rituals. But this won't give her an easy time and will test her ability to rise from the "rock bottom".
At first, as I said earlier, I thought it will just be the usual girlie movie or chick flick that we used to see but Bridesmaids really surprised me big time! The movie is extremely hilarious and my jaws ached for hours after watching! If only the director Paul Feig can hear me staying STOP as I was already crying hard while laughing! =D
