Rough Night (2017)
Country: US
Technical: col/2.39:1 101m
Director: Lucia Aniello
Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Kate McKinnon, Zoë Kravitz, Jillian Bell
Synopsis:
Five former college friends meet in Miami to celebrate the impending marriage of one of their number, an aspiring state politician. Then one of them orders a stripper and they soon have a body on their hands.
Review:
What passes for comedy these days in Hollywood is the antithesis of good taste: gross-out toilet references, salacious humour, profanity and the foregrounding of libido over any other character motivation. To which can be added in this case casual homicide. Not that one wishes to sound sanctimonious or anything, but if only there were a quantum of credibility or wit on display we might have an Arsenic and Old Lace for the millennium generation.
