Girls Trip (2017)

I just saw this yesterday with my wife and I wanted to see it more than her. It was absolutely hilarious. I grew up watching Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett, and Regina hall. Tiffany Haddish was amazing as the funny as hell / silly friend she portrays. Haddish had some of the funniest lines / scenes I've ever witnessed and she played them very well. I needed a good laugh and this film delivered. I laughed every minute for a long time, unless something more serious was going on, and even then, I had a smirk on my face. The whole theatre laughed as well, it felt good to laugh in conjunction with a bunch of other people.

This dramedy was just what I needed and it brought me back to the days when I too had a crew to roll with. Now that I'm approaching 30 I only have one real friend from my high school / college days and the nostalgia the film invoked within me was much appreciated. This film is full of dancing, laughs, and great depiction of what friends and people actually go through. Check it out for yourself! I cannot wait for it to be on DVD/Blu-ray so that I may add it to my collection and laugh once more.

Wonderful, Soul Searching, Brilliantly Made

I enjoy this movies so much. I never laughed and cried so hard while watching a movie. What I love about this movie is we girls or sisters have to stick together in good or bad times. Hiding the truth in your relationship eventually the ugly will be known. Some stay in relationship for money, fame, most of all for the fear we failed. We stay away from the people who can figure out the truth. I love all the girls (I relate to the crazy one). This crazy lady stole the movie ( you always have friend who sets things straight in a weird way). Ladies you rocked and made my day. If you are down, see this movie and all you worries will leave you for a couple of hours. They showed you life have struggles no matter what class, how much money you have, you live your life according what you believe. Let no man or woman turn you in something you not. Fear keeps you a bad situation. Courage empowers you. I waited a long time to laugh senseless.....Ladies congratulation on a wonderful and truth baring movie.

Hilarious from beginning to end!

I am not one to go to the theater to see a comedy. I prefer big budget Hollywood blockbusters, science fiction, etc. but I love all Jada, Queen, and Regina so I wanted to support (plus I got free tickets to an advanced screening, so why not LOL). Low and behold, I have never laughed so hard at a comedy movie in a very long time and I mean like laugh out loud, ugly noise funny.

While everyone has funny moments throughout the film, the real star of the show is Tiffany Haddish. She delivers the funniest one liners, punchlines, every-lines. She was definitely the highlight.

Now I will say that for most avid movie goers, the plot isn't too original. If you are a comedy lover then you have definitely seen a version of this movie before; four friends who have lost their mojo go on a fun filled weekend where everything that could go wrong does go wrong. Their friendship is tested and their lives are changed forever. Nothing too unique but the characters and the setting make it enjoyable to watch. I thought that the writers choosing such a prestigious event like Essence Festival as the backdrop of the storyline was genius and much needed. It's great that the world can see inside such a huge cultural event for the black community.

Of course, this movie will be donned (by some) as a "black movie" but it's nothing of the sort. Many themes and jokes are definitely inspired by a culture birthed from the black community but the film can be enjoyed by all races and adult ages. I was even surprised when I got the the advanced screening to see so many diverse faces and age groups. Plus the theater erupted in laughter the entire time.

I definitely recommend this film. You won't be disappointed. It's the funnies thing I have seen since Key and Peele's show!
