I...please tell me someone else bought your ticket?<br /><br />I don't know what is more disheartening: a) the new bevy of female comics who tell everyone this really is empowering to women or b) the pseudo-feminism of summer blockbusters in which we are told that it isn't marriage but "provocative" clothes or the lack thereof that make a woman powerful<br /><br />PS. while this review didn't ruin my desire to see this movie, which was and is nil, I think your Latinas in the media review has totally fracked Glee for me ... oh well, bound to happen anyway.

This movie appears to have no surprises, coming from the man who brought us "Knocked Up." The messages of that film appeared to be: <br />1. Children are precious and one must never even mention the word that rhymes with "Shma-shmortion; <br />2. Children are precious and even if you are a successful, gorgeous woman, if an overgrown fratboy loser without any discernible talents or charms gets you knocked up, you should immediately give up everything you've worked for in life in order to partner with this man: only then you will be Complete As A Woman; <br />3. Once you are Complete As A Woman, you are destined to make the father of your child miserable for the rest of his life by becoming a shrew (a la the heroine's sister and her husband). <br /><br />Having sat through *Knocked Up,* I'm hapy to sit out *Bridesmaids." For all it's focus on women characters, it sounds like it doesn't pass the Bechdel Test.squadratomagicohttp://squadratomagico.netnoreply@blogger.com
