I have to say that this is one of the funniest, wittiest, side splitting comedies I have seen for a long time. The women are gorgeous, successful and relatively well off. They also go out every weekend, use and abuse good looking men and get themselves stonking hangovers - much like the majority of single 20-somethings I have had the pleasure of meeting (and being).
Whilst slightly far-fetched as far as the chase-the-wedding, terrible outfit from Ab Fab-type outlet - so is James Bond and Triple X.
The girls are out regularly - trying to find Mr Right, and going through a lot of Mr Wrong's and Maybe's at the same time. This night though, Cameron's character meets a great guy, and the rest of the story follows the girls trying to track him down, allegedly through his brothers wedding, across country and through some hilarious events. Slighly 'Carry On' style to it, but this humour is needed now and then.
This is a true chick flick with a difference - a lot of men I know loved it, and loved the idea that women could be that little bit more rude, crude honest and dirty than most films make out.
Don't take it seriously - let it make you laugh, and dream of the day a group of girls bust into song in a Chinese because 'Oh, your p***s is sooooo big...'
I RARELY buy video's DVD's - I can't watch almost all films more than once (unless it contains Will Smith).
This I'm buying!

I have to disagree with you completely. This is the WORST film ever. I certainately don't think at all how the girls think in the film and neither does any other female that I know. Gem x
