My Review of Rough Night

        So I recently watched Rough Night and I'm here to bring you my review. So without further ado...

        Jess (played by Scarlett Johansson) is an engaged politician who reunites with three of her college friends for a wild bachelorette weekend in Miami. The night of hard partying soon takes a hilariously dark turn when a male stripper accidentally dies at their beach house. Amid the craziness of trying to cover it up, the women ultimately find themselves becoming closer when it matters most.

       

        This is a really boring and dull film that just doesn't make any sense. Right off the bat, all of the characters are extremely stupid and constantly get more and more annoying as the film goes on. The situations they get themselves are really predictable and they play out exactly how you would expect. The film has some great actresses in the group and between they do have some great comedic chemistry together, but outside of comedy they don't really have anything else that works or helps the film move along a smooth pace. One thing that is most confusing about the film is all of the plot twists that come in to play and like certain things you can only twist so much before you break and this film uses 4 of them which for a film like this is just not something that works all too well. It's a film that really doesn't have a sense of direction and it really under utilizes the talent it has to have more emotional moments to connect with the characters other than in a comedic tone and it uses most the cliches we've come to see in previous films like this. Overall the film is fun in parts, but it takes a basic plot and over complicates everything when it could've went a different route and really doesn't many chances with the cast in order for them to be more likable. I give Rough Night a 2 out of 10.

        So ladies and gentlemen what did you think of Rough Night, what would you rate it and what did you think of my review? Let me know in the comments section below and let your voice be heard.
