Kate McKinnon was THE best part of this movie...

Just really enjoyed her character, her funny lines. To be honest, I have never found Kristen Wiig funny AT ALL. She dragged the movie down for me , almost every scene she was in.

I'd only ever seen Kate McKinnon on SNL, and I'd grown to love her energy and sense of fun - so I was looking forward to her performance in this. I can't say that I expected her character to be so dangerously zany, but I just decided to go with it.

And as for Kristen Wiig, Lorne Michaels once referred to her as "amongst the top three or four Saturday Night Live performers" - and at that time, I would have had to agree. I've seen her in other things as well, and I love how, with her deadpan expression, she provides that contrast for her co-stars to play off of.

Actually I think she was the worst.

She's good on SNL. She sucked in this. I only laughed at Leslie Jones in this, who I can't stand on SNL!

The only stand out character of the group.

she sucked. The only one who tried to act like a real person was Leslie Jones
