Reviews

The cast of Bridesmaids plus two.

Friends With Kids has a lot of lines that make me laugh, even though I wouldn't consider it a comedy. The plot is a little weird, but I like the dialogue. I'm not usually a big Maya Rudolph fan, but I like her in this. I like a mean Maya. I don't like the progression of Kristen Wiig and John Hamm's characters though, so big minus for that.
