It's too much familiarity. It's like she's one of my limbs.

Date: Wednesday 28th November
Film: Friends With Kids (2011)
Director: Jennifer Westfeldt
Starring: Jennifer WestfeldtAdam ScottMaya Rudolph and Jon Hamm
Running Time: 01 hour, 47 minutes
Rating 7.5/10

The commentary on this DVD box says 'funnier than Bridesmaids'. Not sure that's a fair comparison to make. Whilst Friends With Kids has a cast made up almost entirely of faces that popped up in Bridesmaids, the humour is totally different.

Don't go expecting this to be another Bridesmaids; the jokes aren't as brash, the characters aren't as 'caricature-y' and at no point does anyone defecate in the street. It is, however, as good as Bridesmaids, mainly due to the brilliant cast.

Friends With Kids is heartwarming, funny and has an exceptional cast, although Chris O'Dowd's accent upset me a little.
