I enjoyed this one thoroughly. Definitely has some moments that feel a bit too improvised and over-the-top for my taste, but I have always loved Kristen Wiig and really enjoyed seeing her carry the movie as the lead. Will definitely pick this one up, as Apatow-produced films always get a large amount of solid extras.

I saw this twice in theaters and will admit to being slightly bored the second time. I think the problem is that the movie's too long for its own good. However, this is still a day one buy.
Something tells me there'll be an extended/unrated cut that runs a little over 3 hours. It IS an Apatow production, lest we forget!
Yeh this was solid, MUCH better than I expected. I agree, it wasn't ad good second time but still good. It's good to see wigg really in a solid movie. She seemed more restrained more than usual and it worked.
I loved this movie! I saw it twice in theaters and laughed hysterically both times. I can't wait to see all the deleted/extended scenes.
Definitely picking up the Blu combo pack. Loved this one very much.
One of my favorite movies of the year. Can't wait for the blu ray.
Definitely will be buying this. Hoping the DVD art is the same as the fantastic poster.
Saw this three times in theater and laughed out loud a lot each time which doesn't usually happen. Definite purchase for me. Hoping for an extended cut somewhere down the line.
saw this one 8 times in theater - yes I know - 8!!
I didn't like it as much the second time as I did the first, but I still loved it every time afterwards. I will buy this.

Brilliant stuff.
Didn't realise how long it was, time breezed by.

awesome movie! all the players in it are excellent! it's kinda raunchy but also has a heart too.
I agree with the crowd, this movie was hilarious! Day one for me.
I really wish I could have caught this while it was still playing at the cinema. I remember hearing so many great things and always intended to go and see it, but alas.
Glad they went with the original poster.
Yes, cannot wait for the unrated version! Google search "bridesmaids deleted scenes" and click the funnyordie link for some hilarious bits of extended scenes. I am sure they will be on the DVD along with more but a good filler until the unrated dvd actually releases. This was hilarious!
Sequel talk is already underway, of course with budget of 32 million and it standing at over 220 million in theatres now with the European release still on the way it's inevitable. I hope they steer clear of the "Hangover 2" route and not just repeat the exact same premise but branch out a little bit with new ideas and make it great.

Yeh a sequel isn't needed vut they do what they k ow makes money. I too am pumped for the cut footage, there was some stuff in the trailers not in the film.
Have seen this twice so far. Hope to see it another theatrically. It's hysterical. Wiig is so great in this. The best comedy of the year and one of the best movies of the year. Will purchase.
I saw this one four times in the theatre. Loved it more and more each time. Can't wait for the combo pack. Who else hates the Universal blue spines on combo packs?!
I saw it twice in theaters and loved it both times. It's by far the funniest comedy of this year, and one of the best films of this year.
Wanted to see it SO BADLY! It looked funny as hell in the trailers and commercials. People and critics even said it was funnier than The Hangover Part 2. And it is still doing AMAZING at the box office right now, it's making more money than Green Lantern, Super 8, Pirates 4, The Hangover 2, X-Men: First Class, and more! Maybe I'll blind buy, I'll watch anything with Kristen Wiig! Anything SNL related will make me laugh.
