Girls Trip – 6.9

A formulaic comedy about four old friends reuniting for a weekend on the town – in this case, EssenceFest in New Orleans – made fresh by starring four black women in an almost all-black setting, with one goofy and one out-of-it white woman as comic relief. Regina Hall was engaging as the woman who has it all, loses it all, then finds her true strength, bringing tears to my eyes, as the formula dictates. It was also refreshing – liberating? – to hear uber-bawdy lines from women, for a change.
