FRIENDS WITH KIDS [2011]

Writer, director and star Jennifer Westfeldt reassembles half the cast of Bridesmaids for her indie-comedy Friends With Kids.
Unfortunately it's not the least bit humorous and it's characters are unintentionally douchey and annoying.  It's such a waste of a normally funny ensemble cast that all seem to be in it as a friendly favor to Westfeldt.  Her ego is inflated with the notion that she can write a story about "real humans" doing "real stuff" because she understands it all so well, when in fact she does nothing but waste your time with this unrealistic dribble.
