When we look at the Oscars and what films people still talk about ten years later, the lack of a Best Picture nomination is just unforgiveable. Regarding the 84th Academy Awards, the film only earned two nominations for Best Original Screenplay and Supporting Actress. Women can do the same thing as men and be just as funny. They give us a film that allows funny women to be front and center. If it were up to me, they would have won. They absolutely deserved their Oscar nomination, too. What Mumolo and Wiig did with their script was truly a work of genius. She’s a solid comedic actress and this is something that filmmakers need to show more and more. Bridesmaids is one of the first films to display her comedic skills. Regarding the rest of the cast, one thing I like about this film is Rose Byrne.
I’ve said this time and time again, Paul Feig is able to get the best direction out of the Oscar nominee.
The moment you see them entering the restaurant, you know the film is just about to get super-hysterical within a matter of minutes! The cast gets every chance to shine but it is Melissa McCarthy delivering the breakout performance. I can say this with 100% certainty: both the scenes at the bridal shop and on the airplane are still hysterical ten years later. We all know what happens in the film and if you don’t, I don’t know what to tell you. This film has been around for ten years so I do not feel the need to rehash the plot. Unlike some of the other films produced by Judd Apatow in the early 2000s, Bridesmaids managed to age particularly well. The film, written by Annie Mumolo and Kristen Wiig, has withstood the test of time. It’s very hard to believe that it’s been ten years because it feels just like yesterday. Bridesmaids, the Oscar-nominated comedy classic directed by Paul Feig, marks the tenth anniversary of its theatrical release in 2011.
