Better than Results, more confident about its milieu, although rather too crowded with incident.

Support the Girls kinda ran out of steam for me in the last half hour, but up until the point where Regina Hall leaves the film for a decent chunk of the third act, I was loving it (I wondered if the film either needed a stronger resolution, or if it should have just dispensed with the whole idea of resolution). Give Hall more lead roles!

My wife's reaction iirc was that it should be required viewing for anybody in a management position.

Yeah the climactic sequence in the restaurant was the weakest part, but the film had garnered enough goodwill with me by that point that I can ride with it. (Also hugely not a fan of ending with the 'cathartic scream from rooftop or other scenic vantage point' thing, cant believe ppl are still doing that with a straight face, might as well end on a freezeframe of characters high fiving and yelling the title of the movie, but w/e, its a nitpick.) Hall deserved an Oscar nom.
