Ultimate Movie Year finds the best films from weekends past to build an all-star lineup of cinema.

“Bridesmaids"
Released May 13, 2011
Directed by Paul Feig

The first decade of film comedy in the 2000s was marked by the immature men of "Anchorman," "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," "Step-Brothers," and "Old School," created by funnymen like Will Ferrell, Steve Carrell, Vince Vaughn, Seth Rogan, and filmmakers Adam McKay and Judd Apatow. You can build a family tree as each comedic voice helped establish new ones, as they came to be collectively known as the Frat Pack.

So it's ironic that arguably the best comedy from this family tree is 2011's "Bridesmaids," the R rated film written by and starring women. The Paul Feig movie not only holds up on rewatch but also is a contender for one of the funniest films ever. Here are the keys that make "Bridesmaids" stand in the front.
