If you're looking for a funny movie that has offensive humor, with doses of comedic sex scenes, and some heartfelt relationship plot, then "Trainwreck" may be for you. I know comedy is subjective, but I thought this movie was absolutely hilarious. Even the sexist, racist, and just the general crass sense of humor completely worked for me.  

This also has a very strong cast, from the comedic talents of Bill Hader and Colin Quinn, the fantastic work of Tilda Swinton and Brie Larson, and even the non-actors such as Lebron James and John Cena. In particular, I thought John Cena absolutely won me over here. Of course, the true star that stands out the most here is Amy Schumer, and she is so very incredibly good in this. 

There's a lot of funny scenes in this movie that seem in tune with the stand-up comedy style of Amy Schumer, and a lot of it were very quick witted. This is the kind of funny movie that I love. Unfortunately it gets bogged down during the fourth act of the movie, once it deals much more with the emotional aspect of the story. It was like the sharp sense of humor couldn't maintain itself. 

Judging the story by itself, "Trainwreck" is not necessarily doing anything completely unique, and the movie itself feels longer than I preferred. However, watch this film for Amy Schumer, because she is one funny woman, and deserves all the praises that she gets for her work here.
