Walk of Shame (2014)

This review is probably going to get a lot of thumbs down but before you judge my taste in movies please just go and watch it again. Yes it's flimsy and stupid even but it's perfectly entertaining and very snappy. No scene drags on too long for the audience to get bored. There are cringe worthy moments but those add to the overall craziness. When I watched it originally, I was not writing reviews frequently. However I didn't dislike the movie. Recently, someone showed me that the critics rating on this movie was dismal. Couldn't agree with that because its a pretty funny film and quite similar to After Hours. So I had to watch it again.It was clear to me the first time that Walk of Shame was not iconic nor brilliant but it was memorable. It requires quite a bit of suspension of disbelief but it is evident that the movie is not trying to find any answers to life. After watching it again I say it's still a damn entertaining movie and that's about it! For those trying to read meanings into Meghan's unexpected nightly adventures are just not getting the point. There's no spiritual quest here. It's just a really bad day (night) for the prudent girl. From that stand point its all too fun to watch. She meets some hilarious characters, goes through a series of unfortunate events, finds kindness among most unusual people while gets totally judged by 'normal' ones. It's ironic and funny and absurd. Maybe not as edgy as Scorsese's After Hours but it's a fair update to the situation. Also, Banks is just gorgeous. She does some gross stuff in this movie to deserve a few laughs! Don't hate it just because it's a star vehicle. What's wrong with that?This movie is a perfect goof off that friends love to watch together on sleepovers or when you stay in and chill on weekends. There are some good laughs in there and some guilty pleasure. It has two awesome comedians Bill Burr and Tig Notaro doing just the most inconsiderate things to the poor protagonist and that adds to the hilarity. My hunch is that this movie will gain popularity with time. Whether it does or not, 12% on Rotten Tomatoes is definitely not what it deserves.

Wow. This is one of the worst movies that I have ever had the displeasure of seeing in a long time. I really wanted to like it, but I just couldn't. First, the male lead is chivalrous enough to not allow her to drive home when she's drunk because she's clearly impaired. But when she suggests that they go home together, all further conversations cease about her sobriety? Disgusting. And let's talk about how every minority is portrayed in this movie. The three black men are crack dealers. The Asian woman runs a massage parlor (which they suggest is a brothel). A latino man is a drug dealer. The presumably middle eastern man is a cab driver who takes payment in lap dances. Her friend's love interest with an olive complexion is also portrayed as a sleazy guy. And oh yeah, after all of her ridiculous shenanigans she gets offered the job while her competitor (whose surname is Chang and is likely Asian) gets automatically cut because of "racy pictures." This was complete utter nonsense. Shame on Elizabeth Banks for stooping to a new low. But to be honest, the person in whom I am most disappointed is myself for watching this absurd movie. Shame on you. That's time you'll never get back.

First of all I have to say it is so hard to write a review on this site , that being said this movie is awesome it is so young single life as I remember..very funny. I would recommend it highly.. Reminded me of younger days Love the acting I didn't know LA had a subway Just goes to show ya the people you persive to be scary turn out to be the nicest Not to say you shouldn't be careful Everyone especially women need to carry a cell phone I would let my granddaughters see this with me Some beautiful pictures of LA The whole thing just made me smile Xoxoxo

I understand this movie is described as "comedy", however half- through it I didn't smile once. The main character is really messed up and inconsistent, she's supposed to be a journalist aka a person who knows how to present information to people. Instead of that she can't manage to find anyone who could help her and the only people she meets turn out to be sexually obsessed freaks and/or psychopaths.It was so uncomfortable to watch, I felt so embarrassed for the girl and anyone who has made this movie.The only thing that stood up for me was Elizabeth Banks' yellow dress. She looked really pretty and it's the only reason I give this movie 3 stars.
