I had to turn this movie off when I was annoyed SO badly at the annoying blonde who desperately drove "3 hours from LA to San Diego to become an actor's girlfriend and get tickets to ComicCon from him" (as she always whines every 5 minutes like some sort of plot driver) and made an oath with her best friend to party the night away just to redeem themselves and make their journey and expenses worthwhile, but as soon as she finally gets let into a club after "walking around all night in heels" and skipping the line and coming up with a story to get invited in though the bouncer called her "ma'am", she doesn't budge an inch and engages in a silly, agonizing argument with him that he shouldn't call her a "ma'am". I was literally yelling at the screen while she was arguing "stfu before he changes his mind! Who cares?! Shut up and go in!?" and then the divine intervention of a relatively known local celebrity claims the girls are with him to the bouncer, and STILL the blonde is whining and complaining to the bouncer about being called "ma'am" and ruining her chances to go inside the club even with the miracle of a VIP member inviting her in, like really? You complain all night that you wasted your time and money and can't get into a club but as soon as the bouncer concedes to let you in you argue with him, twice? There is no logic.
And then some groupies said "tbh" instead of "to be honest" and the annoying blonde had the nerve to say, "did she just say tbh like it's an actual word?" and I'm like, you live in LA and you kind of talk like that too so how is conversing with social media slang a shock...? Why did the writers forget that their main characters are not the pinnacles of logic and wit but wrote them sarcastically criticizing other groupie dimwits. This movie is literally about them being groupie dimwits themselves! If you drive across the state to impress a guy and use him to party at exclusive events, and then he ends up rejecting you on the spot, and now you have no other plans so you traipse the town on foot all night trying to get into clubs and you don't (unless you beg, or lie, which they did)...yea, I don't wanna hear judgements from you, sweetie.
And the way that they wrote the blonde's best friend's character is also unbearable, she comes up with outlandish things about the blonde, forcing character and plot development with nonexistent preceding events due to lazy vision and writing. For instance, while they're BOTH scorning the groupies who talk drunken nonsense like an extreme caricature of the protagonist duo, the best friend suddenly defends them to the blonde and asks, "are you jealous that they're giving me attention?"
...
WHAT?! First of all, where did that even come from? And second of all, no she's calling them dumb because they are. What kind of rationale is in the vapid mind of the writer(s)? Like viewers would agree with the direction the script just went in and wait with bated breath for what's gonna happen next. "Will the besties fall out after this ridiculous argument? And if they fall out, how will they get home? What will happen along the way?" This isn't The Odyssey! Who gives a deuce at this point!?
I never talk to the screen because I think it's crazy but I was yelling at the screen, and I honestly like bad indie comedies because I admire living your life as a creator and taking chances as such, but this was so annoying and I had only seen 5 minutes of the movie (this scene that I just reviewed) because I skipped through the movie to see if I want to watch it, if anything interesting happens, if I like the cinematography, fashion, vibe, plot direction, cast, etc. And the only 5 minutes I saw were unbearable. NOT going to bother.
