With a knock - out cast of funny ladies
including Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, and the scene - stealing Melissa McCarthy, Bridesmaids caught pretty
much all of us by surprise, both by being awesome and by making a
crap - ton of money ($ 283 million worldwide according to IMDb).
Even Canada, which has suffered from pretty
much every commodity
crapping the bed (
including, most famously, oil), has still done pretty well.
