Sony Pictures Classics’ Jon Hamm & Jennifer Aniston movie opens in theaters today. After premiering at the Sundance Film Festival critics have praised the hilarious spoof calling it “refreshingly ridiculous” and “a daffy odyssey through Los Angeles.”
Why Jon Hamm and Jennifer Aniston’s latest NSFW comedy has everyone talking
The movie hitting theaters on July 10 is ‘Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass.’ Directed by David Wain and co-written with Ken Marino, the 94-minute R-rated comedy is a modern-day parody of The Wizard of Oz. It debuts at the box office with a solid 79% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
What made the movie NSFW is its very adult, bawdy idea. It portrays a sweet hairdresser’s revenge against her fiancé, who cheats on her with a Hollywood superstar. After realizing the truth, she embarks on an adventurous trip to Los Angeles to have fun with her celebrity crush. To make the situation worse, her fiancé shows up unexpectedly, leading to unprecedented circumstances. The film is packed with naughty and crackpot jokes, constantly making fun of high-concept movies from the late 90s.
The official synopsis reads, “Small-town hairdresser Gail Daughtry, engaged to her sweetheart Tom, faces a crisis when Tom uses his “celebrity pass”. Following this, Gail impulsively travels to Los Angeles to find her own celebrity pass, Jon Hamm, to “even the scales,” accompanied by her friend Otto. Their journey through Hollywood, assisted by various characters and hindered by Italian assassins, leads to a chaotic search for the star.”
