favorite scenes: The bridal shop scene.
The airplane scene.
And every scene with a Close-Up shot of Helen's ( Rose Byrne ) face! ( Even the crying scene )
audience reaction: The audience liked this movie a lot. Although, surprisingly, nobody gave it a "Hands Clapper" ending.
recommendation: I liked this movie, too. This is the funniest Chick Flick that I've ever seen so far. Go see this movie.
spoiler alert! Actresses with small to medium size firm breasts should be made to go topless in sex scenes. It is only the ones with big, stretch-marked saggy breasts who should be forced to wear a bra in sex scenes because such breasts tend to flop around and uncoordinatedly swing every which way--neither sexually-arousing nor a pretty sight to behold! ( Not my cup of bra--I mean, tea. ) Come on now, calling a group of women "bitches" and getting away with it, really ...? The cop ( Chris O'Dowd ) failed to see that her car also had a blown head gasket, what with all that white smoke coming out of the tailpipe. And the weather was not cold enough to produce that white smoke. With a hot and sexy step-mom like that, I wouldn't be disrespecting her if I were the older son who was at that point in his life called, "the raging hormones years"--I'd have a spy-cam always at the ready ( i.y.k.w.i.m. = if you know what I mean--wink, wink. Heh, heh, heh. ), if I were him! The cop made her sit in the front seat when they chased a "lead foot". The cop drank an alcoholic drink while still on duty. Why didn't the butterfly asphyxiate? Those bake pans look suspiciously new. If Lillian wanted to be left alone in her apartment, why was her door kept unlock?
fyi: The Sobriety Test in Steve Martin's movie, THE MAN WITH TWO BRAINS ( 1983 ), was a lot funnier.
I think the tradition of having the bride's parents pay for the wedding should have an exemption clause in the case where said parents are not able to financially do so. Why can't both sets of parents just chip-in on it, instead?
Jill Clayburgh, who played Annie's mom, died six months ago on November 5th. This movie was her last one. I was surprised to find out that there was no dedication made in her honor in the Ending Credits of this movie. I don't know whether it was a bad oversight or if it was just too late to add it on. But, either way, its absence was very conspicuous.
Years ago, I had a 1978 Honda Civic CVCC Hondamatic that had a blown head gasket ( Hondas have a notorious reputation for having head gasket problems ). One day, as I started-up my Honda, white smoke blew out of its tailpipe just as this white woman was walking across the back of my car on her way to her car in the parking lot. She was obviously "steamed" ( hah! perfect word ) by it. She followed me out of the parking lot in her mini van. Days later, I got a letter from the DMV's California Air Resources Board telling me that I was reported for driving a polluting car. That bitch!
word of advice: When you go to work, leave your personal problems at home.
tidbits: I wanted to get the Nachos w/ Cheese to go along with my drink purchase. But they were out of it. So, I had to settle for a popcorn.
Two employees were putting-up the Transformers movie promotional display in the main hallway.
And speaking of movie promotional displays, the ones for THOR and KUNG-FU PANDA were vandalized. Why do idiot kids do that? Does it make them feel better, in some way, when they vandalize other people's property? What kind of idiot parents raised them in the first place? I say, if you cannot be counted on to raise your children properly and instill in them a good set of moral values and social obligations, you got no business having children in the first place.
