    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Melissa McCarthy (Megan) and Ben Falcone (Air Marshall Jon) are married in real life.
    • Goofs
      When Annie receives the shower invitation it reads "Sat." as the day. When Annie's car breaks down on the day of the shower, and Ted picks her up, she asks him, "Were you busy?" and he answers, "Well, it is Friday."
    • Quotes

      Megan: I'm glad he's single because I'm going to climb that like a tree.

    • Alternate versions
      The 131-minute unrated version contains several additional scenes as follows:
      • The conversation between Annie (Kristen Wiig) and Mother (Jill Clayburgh) is slightly longer with Mother telling her about Father's "chicken coop" sex act, and it also reveals that Annie's father grew up in a farm.
      • Becca (Ellie Kemper) mocks Annie for being single and offers to arrange a date for her.
      • The car ride with Lillian (Maya Rudolph) and Annie after the bridal store fiasco is longer and different than the theatrical version. In the new cut, after Lilian admits crapping her wedding dress, Annie starts to feel uncomfortable, gets out of the car and throws up.
      • When Annie is at the bathroom, Gil (Matt Lucas) and his sister were in the bathtub together. He asks Annie to hand her the disposable shaver and shaves his sister's armpits.
      • There's a new 5-minute scene where Annie has a date with a guy called Pete. While waiting at the living room for Pete to get ready, she has a very uncomfortable conversation with his son Taylor (he's talking about "fear of dying", asking about Annie replacing his mother, etc.). After Annie goes upstairs, she overhears Pete talking on the phone telling his wife how he missed her and describes Annie as unattractive. Shocked by that, she went back downstairs and saw Taylor taking some contraceptive pills before leaving the house hastily.
      • The home video of Megan (Melissa McCarthy) and Jon (Ben Falcone) is slightly longer. She sticks a slice of ham on his chest and eats them. However, Jon's reaction doesn't tell whether he likes it or not.

    Craptastic!
    After seeing all of the reviews for this movie, I couldn't wait to see it. It got so many great reviews, not only from IMDb, but from my friends. The first 10 minutes of the movie passed and I already wanted to leave. Nonetheless, I stayed, hoping that something drastically funny would occur. Boy was I wrong! After realizing the movie had been playing for an hour, I knew it wasn't going to get funny. I walked out and got my money back (thank goodness). This was a sad attempt at humor. Yes, I realize that everyone's sense of humor is different, but I do not understand how anyone in their right mind could think this movie was even the slightest bit funny. Not only was it not funny, but all of the attempts at "humor" were just down right nasty! I'm not prude and some of the jokes made me feel uncomfortable, and I found myself thinking: "Were the people who wrote this script on crack?" One of the worst movies I have ever seen. If I could give 0 stars I would. Please save your money for some other movie. *To all the people who couldn't get their money back I am genuinely sorry!
