Girl Crush Episodes

Join us on our #JenJourney! Tune in to our first episode to hear how our girl crush on Jennifer Aniston turned into a comprehensive ranking of all 38 of her movies. We rate each movie on 5 categories leading to a total score out of 37 points. In this episode we review one of our all-time faves, The Break-Up, covering our Jen hair hypotheses, an ending we disagree on, and other musings from this empowering rom-com.

Our #JenJourney continues with our review of the 1996 film, She's the One. Although Jen is referred to as a Buick next to Cameron Diaz's Cadillac, this lively film will make you laugh and cringe. With an unpredictable plot, this blast from the past featuring some great pleated slacks and scrunchies is definitely worth the watch!

Our #JenJourney brings us to a whirlwind of a film, Rumor Has It. If you're into possible incest, this is THE film for you. We were kept so on our toes that after the movie ended we still weren't sure that everyone knew the real truth... Still full of classic rom-com (including the most realistic #MileHighClub scene we've seen) with a nice scoop of scandal on top, though Jen's character score does get knocked for making Mark Ruffalo sad. Plenty of throwback fashion will have you running for your...

Are you ready to continue ROCK-in' through our #JenJourney? This movie's main character is probably 80's rock hair, with great support from Jen and Mark Wahlberg. In a movie that comes full circle, Jen plays one of her strongest characters. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you may cry laughing.... this movie caught us by surprise. Find out why!

Our #JenJourney is taking us way back to the films that launched Jennifer Aniston's career! Mac And Me: a hilarious alien encounter sponsored by McDonald's. Is Jen on screen for more than 3 seconds? No. Did we watch it anyway? Yes. #dedicated Camp Cucamonga: a made-for-TV movie following a bunch of zany kids at a summer camp. Jen drives a school bus AND has lines. Makin' moves. Leprechaun: Jen's first feature film role, starring a crazed leprechaun seeking revenge in the middle of North Dakot...

Our #JenJourney brings us Jen as a villain in this episode! Find out how we rate Horrible Bosses, where three friends set out to murder their horrible bosses. Surrounded by our two favorite Jasons and the always hilarious Charlie Day, Jen still manages to shine in this role unlike any other (complete with brunette bangs). Join us in our moral dilemma of how to rate Jen's nefarious character in this laugh-out-loud classic & surprisingly well-done sequel!

This week our #JenJourney continues with a film that starts out in black and white, features Jen sporting various accents, and introduces us to maybe the worst protagonist of all time (not played by Jen, obviously). Tune in to see how we ate this 1996 rom-com that can only be found in phsyical DVD form!

Our #JenJourney takes us to another dimension in this 2003 comedy, Bruce Almighty. Jen is our leading lady next to Jim Carrey and is, per usual, taken advantage of as the perfect human that she is. With a strong character and even stronger hair, this is a funny, off the wall plot with a pre-The-Office cameo of Steve Carell that will be sure to make you laugh (and maybe cry)!

If laughing in absurd disbelief is a favorite pastime, then this is the film for you. Our #JenJourney brings us to the quirky 2008 film Management, where Jennifer Aniston plays a traveling art saleswoman named Sue. This off-the-wall romance features a main character who is (understandably) obsessed with Sue, riding the line between being sweet and creepy. Honestly the film got to the halfway point and we had no idea how they would create another half. Parachutes, Buddhist Monks, and Rec Soccer L...

Episode 10 in our #JenJourney brings us to Along Came Polly, released in 2004. Debra Messing makes a MESS of things, but enter our heroine Jen. Another film featuring her little known dance skills and ability to rock a butterfly clip, this is a a slightly predictable but feel-good film featuring Ben Stiller and a blind ferret. There's a few character layers that elevate the plot and leave you thoroughly entertained! We're pushing this out a little early knowing that we all might be fighting bac...

Our #JenJourney brings us to Love Happens this week. It's a slightly predictable romantic drama about being true to yourself. Jennifer Aniston plays a florist who is extremely likable with a dash of quirk. Fair warning that the name of the film sounds like a sweet romcom, but it is heavier than you might expect...If you're looking to shed a couple sappy tears, this is for you.

Derailed is the next stop on our #JenJourney! A great blend of action and drama, this is truly unlike any other Jennifer Aniston film we've watched. We would deem this a "must-see" given the range Jen shows with her acting. Despite some clear lack of Chicago knowledge, we were pumped to find a rather unknown movie rise pretty high in our rankings!

The ultimate millennial mashup has arrived: Jennifer Aniston + True Crime. Join us on our #JenJourney as we review Murder Mystery. This movie is a classic whodunnit but features some surprises throughout. A true 50/50 blend of Adam Sandler and Jen Aniston, get ready for some charming, dumb humor and a ponytail so flawless we literally paused to observe it.

Join us on our #JenJourney as we visit a hippie commune in the 2012 film Wanderlust, starring Jennifer Aniston, Paul Rudd, and Justin Theroux. A star-studded cast provides a lot of laughs, but limited character development. Of note are Jen’s stellar hair, a nod to Grape Lady Falls, and slow-mo nude running (not the sexy kind).

Our #JenJourney brings us to one of Jennifer Aniston's strongest and arguably most likable characters in the 2010 film The Bounty Hunter! In this film, Gerard Butler plays Milo, a bounty hunter, who is assigned to pick up his ex-wife Nicole, a reporter, who jumped bail. Jen's character Nicole is a true boss babe - a woman who can hulk out to rip a door apart, fall into a pond and look like she just did a GQ shoot, and solve the mystery behind a case she's following! We stopped to muse if Jen has...

Jennifer Aniston gets in touch with some southern (and blonder) roots on this stop of our #JenJourney. The 2018 film Dumplin’ will leave you rooting for the underdog, cheering for teenage romance, and wondering if you can do any magic tricks. Set up a Dolly Parton playlist and settle in for this feel good film.

We made this stop on the #JenJourney so you wouldn’t have to! This movie isn’t so bad that you have to watch it, but it IS so bad that you have to listen to our review. First of all, yes we DID watch this on Youtube. Jennifer Aniston is probably in a whole three minutes of this otherwise unremarkable film. The plot is overly complicated, acting was a bit overdone, and the main character was just annoying. Sarah Jessica Parker was the best part of this movie, even if her makeup throughout was rem...

Our #JenJourney continues with one of those classic films with a bunch of intertwining story lines and a star-studded cast. Mother's Day, released in 2016, actually has some surprising moments (Julia Roberts looking like a ginger Willy Wonka being one of them....). Jennifer Aniston is flawless, per usual, and exhibits strong character throughout. No question she is one of the best actors in this movie. Bonus: Jason Sudeikis in salmon pants.

What started as sincere hope watching some of our favorite actors scroll by in the opening credits turned into genuine boredom and a slightly furrowed brow as we searched for the plot in the slow film, Friends with Money. Despite the boredom, we still felt some serious rage towards a skeezy gym bro (gotta unite on something here). Maybe we just need to rub some Lancôme face cream on and shrug it off, but this movie had such potential & it just fell a little flat. Giving Jennifer Aniston some roo...

Don't let the name fool you, the cake served on this stop of the #JenJourney is dense. Jennifer Aniston delivers her strongest acting performance yet, portraying a deep, emotional character. Not your usual Jen film, but worth a watch to see how far she can stretch. Bonus: Anna Kendrick plays a ghost. Please note: this film’s themes center around tragedy, depression, suicide, and prescription drug addiction. If you or someone you know is struggling with any of these, here are some resources: Na...

Arguably one of our favorite stops on the #JenJourney, Just Go With It is a rom com from the good old days (i.e...2011). Full of great chemistry between Jen and Adam Sandler, lots of laughs, the beautiful scenery of Hawaii, and a cameo by Dave Matthews - join us in reviewing one of our favorite Jennifer Aniston movies. But, spoiler alert, this still isn’t ranked as #1! More about Girl Crush: Website: www.girlcrushpodcast.com Social: https://www.instagram.com/girlcrush_pod/ Merch: https://www.bo...

Did you know Jennifer Aniston has been in two animated films? Join us on our #JenJourney for our review of The Iron Giant, released in 1999, and Storks, released in 2016. Jen plays a (voice) mom in both movies! One features an alien robot, dark colors, and even darker themes. The other has bright colors, featuring storks who deliver babies through an Amazon-like service. Don’t worry, we still managed to cry during both of these films. You can call us soft, we call it emotionally invested. More ...

Our #JenJourney brings us back to the 1998 film The Object of My Affection where we witness a best friendship between George and Nina, played by young Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston. This unpredictable rom-com plot follows their increasingly complicated friendship and the pain of unrequited love. Jen’s character is frustrating, but her portrayal of emotions is stellar! We had physical reactions to this movie, feeling as conflicted as the characters. Definitely a must-see for the uniqueness; it w...

Grab a box of Kleenex for this stop on the #JenJourney! Tune in for our (tear-stained) review of the 2008 family film Marley & Me. Starring Owen Wilson alongside Jennifer Aniston, this film truly depicts how a dog becomes an integral member of the family. Honestly, we're too emotionally exhausted to write a longer description. You will sob at the movie & hopefully you'll laugh with us as we discuss it. More about Girl Crush: Website: www.girlcrushpodcast.com Social: https://www.instagram.com/gi...
