This movie is funny, but it's also pretty dumb. I really hate romantic comedies, like, they pain me to watch. A group of my friends wanted to watch Bridget Jone's Diary and I got to the part where Hugh Grant was a pig and was cheating on whats-her-face and I left. By in large, romantic comedies drive me up a wall with their sexist plot devices (manic pixie dream girls, the inexperienced virgin, the clutzy nerd-turned-hot girl, the soulless "other women", a boyfriend/husband completes a woman, the career-woman who is saved by a man--
need I go on). But now lets talk about Trainwreck. It's dumb. It's goofy. But Amy Schumer's character is a frisky ass girl who likes sex, and smokes weed. There are obvious tropes with her character in regards to her love life (she has daddy issues so she can't commit) that are problematic, but for her personality in general, it's pretty good for a romantic comedy.
