Review: ‘Girls Trip’ is Pure Comedy Gold ★★★★
What do you get when you put together Jada Pinkett Smith, Queen Latifah, Regina Hall and Tiffany Haddish together in a film? COMEDIC GOLD!
That’s what you’re going to get when Girls Trip hits theaters this Friday (July 21st). The raunchy comedy makes for a literal girl’s night out with every bit of excitement and hysterical laughs. The film follows 4 longtime friends who always have a a crazy time together while rekindling their friendships when they all decide to take a trip to New Orleans for the New Orleans’ Essence Festival.
This film is sure to be the summer’s best comedy as these four ladies manage to keep us laughing throughout the entire film with their quirkiness, vulgarity and raunchiness. Played by any other actresses, this film probably would not be as entertaining; they picked the right people for each role. This film is perhaps the female version of ‘The Hangover’, so you know you won’t be disappointed.
Perhaps what will make this film even more successful is the fact that it’s easy for for audiences to relate to the film, by showing us how to live in this world with love and joy. Another important lesson that many an relate to is how to take care of relationships, both with your significant lover and that of your friends so it doesn’t slip away. The how you can balance your professional and personal life so you don’t drive yourself crazy.
Synonpsis:
Best friends Ryan, Sasha, Lisa and Dina are in for the adventure of a lifetime when they travel to New Orleans for the annual Essence Festival. Along the way, they rekindle their sisterhood and rediscover their wild side by doing enough dancing, drinking, brawling and romancing to make the Big Easy blush.
