Oh wait! I get it! Irritated women… the reference to a woman’s body part when they are angry… that part can become irritated… all that equals Yeast… Clever name!

Normally, I am not very easy to offend, but I cannot believe that a woman made a movie about bitchy, angry women and named it after an infection. Place that with horrible acting, the fact that the actors can’t even yell at each other without laughing, and a horrible storyline that revolves around non-constructive bitching. All three of them have serious issues!

Let’s see, how can I give you a character synopsis of this film?

There’s Gen (Greta Gerwig), a hippy-esk pothead who spazzes out way too much. She’s one of those chicks who always acts on impulse, like a child. She even hits and kicks when she is angry.

Alice is played by Amy Judd. She is one of those bitchy friends who keeps everything bottled up and gives you the cold shoulder until…wait for it… she either hits you or throws her cereal on you! Alice does her bitching in a more silent and straightforward way.

And now… the main event… Rachel (Mary Bronstein) is the worst! She pretends to be the rational one but she is just as crazy!!! She claims to want to talk out her problems with her whack-job friends, but slides in bitchy insults along the way. No wonder the only friends that she can acquire are equally as crazy!

I enjoyed how this movie was shot, looking very homemade, but that was about the only positive quality. In no way did I enjoy this movie! I didn’t even enjoy it on the “it’s so bad that it’s good” level. Don’t give me the artsy excuse either! I understand artsy but using it for this movie is a cop out!

So, in order not to be more like the film… no more bitching…
