I recommend Bridesmaids to anyone who liked You Again or wishes You Again was better.

Bridesmaids has some things in common with You Again. It has a struggling loser protagonist, a wedding, a rivalry, a massive temper tantrum, and a tormentor. But the tormentor is not as harsh and the relationship between the protagonist and the tormentor develops much more organically. Bridesmaids has a lot of swearing and some sick and gross stuff in it, so beware to anyone who doesn't like that stuff. It's basically what you would expect if Apatow made a chick flick (and he actually was a producer on it).

I thought it was so much funnier than You Again.....

They also both have someone bringing a music group to the wedding, and an incident on a plane.
A lot of these modern goofy comedies have rivalries but I really noticed the similarities when Wilson Philips showed up. They are both silly in their own ways but it is possible to like both of these films.
