  • Friends with Kids

    Julie Westfelt (Kissing Jessica Stein) writes, directs, produces and stars in a romantic comedy that is neither romantic nor funny, more harrowing and pointless. Bridesmaids 2, as the poster and trailer would have you believe, it absolutely is not.

And as of this week, it’s back!
