Bridesmaids

My fellow Bay Area blogger Lotta made a quick comment on the movie Bridesmaids the other week, and I finally found the time to watch it last night.
It annoys me that big studios have to promote their movies in only two ways: action or comedy. There are no other labels apparently. And granted, there were plenty of light-hearted moments (I refrain from calling them "funny") but while I had been led to believe this was a movie about a group of girls going on a crazy batchelorette weekend in Vegas, that it was a female road movie, equivalent to Hangover etc, that was not what I was given. I hate when a movie doesn't do what it says on the packaging. I kind of like Kristen Wiig but I didn't like any of the other girls. And if I want to see a funny, sexy, cool movie about women for women (refraining from using the term "chick flick"), I don't want to see a bunch of girls throwing up on each other.
But maybe I'm just too old...
