Like Mean Girls, it was pink and funny. But is either film feminist?
Discuss.

I am going to see it tonight so I shall reserve judgment for now, but my (male) colleague proclaimed it "worse than The Hangover". Why, I asked? "Y'know, 'cos it's girls." Sigh.
one of my nearest-and-dearest expressed a similar sentiment - how he didn't like the idea of women trying to do male humour. i asked him why he thought the humour was male, turns out he thinks we're classier than that.
he needs to spend more time in my company.
It was funny and I laughed out loud more than once. Bit hyped unfortunately.
I laughed a LOT and cried four times.
"I cried four times in a film that showed women pooing in the street," I said to my friend.
"I thought it was about a wedding?" said my friend.
"Oh, that's only a tiny part of it," I explained.
the good ones always are, VoodooLady. did you see Cedar Rapids? wasn't much hype about it, but i think it's the best comedy i've seen since In The Loop.
what bits made you cry, Annie? i thought the bit where she ate the cupcake was pretty depressing.
I'm going to go in expectation of some guilty pleasure.
do. i'd love to know what you make of it.
