Looks like we have a comedy hit on our hands. Because when there's mediocre comedic flop after mediocre comedic flop, the comedy that actually has good reviews and releases at an opportune time for counter-programming will be the one to strike it rich.

Girls Trip also caters to an underserved audience.

Seems like the stars are aligned toward a major breakout for Latifah, Pinkett, Hall, and Haddish.

That's another good point!

I don't think anyone picked this in the Summer Comedy Battle.

Tyler Perry still hasn't given us anything as bad as Scary Movie 5. Although it's not entirely all Lee's fault.

TOMATO LAW is coming through  

[Maxmoser3]

That's great to see this getting great reviews thus far! And this has more potential to breakout than Valerian that weekend.

Also the film has a $28 million production budget. So Universal has a hit either way.

The reviews themselves are really enthusiastic about it, though. It's begun with a 78 on Metacritic with 5 reviews tallied so far.

And I'm saying it's too early to see where the final % will land at.

I'm one of three who took it in the summer game to finish in the top 15.  I thought the trailer was funny from the get go.  I hope this does well and I hope it's as funny as the trailer suggests.

Same. Jada Pinkett Smith's bathroom emergency and the "booty hole" bit at the end killed every time I saw the trailer before a movie. Can't say the same for any of this summer's other comedies.
