Bride Hard

  • Title: Bride Hard
  • IMDb: link

Bride Hard is a dumb comedy stuck in the middle of a bad spy film. I’m not sure how it made it into theaters. Perhaps no streaming service would take it. Rebel Wilson stars as Sam, an unorthodox spy who manages to get in trouble both at work and with her friends when she attempts to merge a mission in Paris with her childhood best-friend’s bachelorette party. Put on leave, Sam attempts to mend fences with Besty (Anna Camp) showing up to her wedding despite being downgraded from maid of honor, in favor of Betsy’s annoying new sister-in-law (Anna Chlumsky), to last among the bridesmaids. However, when armed terrorists show up to rob the rich family Betsy is marrying into, Sam puts the skills she’s kept secret from her friend to use.

“Perhaps in hindsight we should not have made our submarine out of food.”

In a classic wacky episode, Phineas (Vincent Martella) and Ferb (David Errigo Jr.), along with Isabella (Alyson Stoner) and Buford (Bobby Gaylor), build a giant submarine out of food making a “Submarine Sandwich Submarine” to explore the Mariana Trench. Snooping on her brothers rather than getting ready for the sandcastle building competition, Candace (Ashley Tisdale) sneaks onboard it time for an underwater adventure that includes almost getting eaten. Eventually making it out of the water, and crashing on the beach, covering it in sand, Candace’s proof not only disappears at the most opportune moment but she’s even rewarded for the most ingenious sandcastle design on the beach.

“The Place Beyond the Pinecones” gives us a Tina (Dan Mintz) episode as she goes on an overnight wilderness retreat with her Thundergirls troop.

Miss Congeniality

  • Title: Miss Congeniality
  • IMDb: link

Wayback Wednesday takes us back to the year 2000 and Sandra Bullock starring role as FBI Agent Gracie Hart who goes undercover at the Miss United States Beauty Pageant to prevent a terrorist attack. The joke of the film is that the gruff feminist is far from a dream contest. Enter coach Victor Melling (Michael Caine), and his team, who helps Gracie fake it until she makes it (including the obligatory makeover montage) while the experience, and the friendship she makes along the way while searching for a terrorist, change Gracie’s opinions on pageants and those who enter them.
