Rough Night is a series of rough ideas that should’ve been thrown in the toilet rather than turned into a movie.
On the plus side, it stars Zoë Kravitz (Mad Max: Fury Road), but on the downside… there’s everything else.
Scarlett Johansson tries her hand at alleged comedy, as a hen party results in a male stripper ending up brown bread. And they have to sort it out. Who cares?
Well, apparently director Lucia Aniello does, who co-wrote this with Paul W Downs, along with a cast including Colton Haynes, Demi Moore, Jillian Bell, Ilana Glazer, Ty Burrell and Kate McKinnon, from the godawful Ghostbusters reboot.
Rough Night is released in the UK on June 16th. See something else. It’s the perfect example of when Mark Kermode tells Gavin Esler in BBC News’ The Film Review‘s teaser, “If you pay to watch it, they’ll just keep making more of it!”
