Some of the dumbest characters in the history of cinema, makes up this below average comedy. I got a few chuckles here and there, but with Girls Trip out the same year it shows the flaws with this film. Also when I say dumbest I mean dumbest. D

Really, really, really bad movie. Weak script, forced acting, with a spattering of funny lines. Kate McKinnon couldn't even save it, and frankly was not used as much as she could have been.

There is some talent in this movie, but the script and writing are just terrible. The film is a mixture of drunken bachelorette tropes mixed with bachelor party tropes.

The film is a mixture of drunken bachelorette tropes mixed with bachelor party tropes. Hey they accidentally kill a stripper at the party. Their attempts to deal with the dead body are stolen from Very Bad Things and Weekend and Bernies. The director/writer Lucia Aniello also has to throw in some man bashing and ham fisted feminism. The male characters in the movie as emasculated, effeminates who oh and ah over wine tastings. The other men are criminals. There is also a plot of two of the friends being former lesbian lovers who reunite. Perhaps all of the flaws could be overlooked if you gave a **** about any of the women. Only Kate McKinnon's character is even remotely likable and brings the most humor to the group. The rest of them are selfish, egotistical, jerks. They also never get any sort of comeuppance. Their multiple murders just get washed away with some hand waving and everything keeps going. There is no remorse, no real growth, no humor. Thumbs down.… Expand

Wouldn’t be nice if there was an American mainstream comedy – you know, one of those dirty ones, resembling, say, „The Hangover“ – but with girls instead of guys?

I mean, all-girls remakes are getting quite hot right now, 2016’s „Ghostbusters“ gathered nearly 230 million dollars – probably not enough to turn profit, probably, but still. Also, there’s „Ocean’s Eight“ coming in June 2018, and we could capitalize on this by producing a quick comedy right now, yes? „Colossal“ garnered good reviews too, so what’s not to like, eh?
All we need is some sweet but sexy star on the lead – I know, Scarlett Johansson can do it, she is only the most profitable actress on the planet now but still so down to earth and everything, and I bet she would like to do something quick and fun between all those superhero projects.
Oh yeah, we need four more girls… How about a
*„kind of fat but kind of pretty“ one,
* token „black but not too black“ one (played by the daughter of Lenny Kravitz, no less!) that every mainstream comedy needs,
* Australian one so we can make fun of her accent,
* and the edgy one, because what we’re doing is so edgy, right, girls? Of course it is.
So the producers had everything they wanted. It surely means that the result is something cool because having girls instead of guys is surefire way to comedy heaven already, no?
Well… no. „Rough Night“ sucks. It’s the second suckiest movie I’ve seen this year, right after the sequel to „50 Shades“. Don’t be tempted by more or less OK trailer, the movie’s bad.
They don’t have almost anything that we enjoy about this kind of raunchy comedy. No inspiration, no decent acting (everybody feels tired, uninspired and/or just not funny), no good vibe, chemistry or flow between players.
I didn’t even laugh once which is really rare for me when I watch a mainstream dirty American comedy. I am a bit of a fan of the genre.
If you endure the whole movie, you may want to check out the two additional scenes in the end, the first during the credits, the other one after them. The second one is not bad, actually, and paves way for a possible sequel. Not that you’d need one, or the box office results encourage now.
Oh yeah, I remembered something. There is actually one pretty cool thing about „Rough Night“ – the unexpected appearance by certain former female star and current star of the popular sitcom „Modern Family“.
But they don’t have enough screen time to justify the ticket price or 101 minutes of your life.… Expand

"Rough Night" is populated by uninteresting characters, jokes that don't land, a haywire plot, terrible acting, a weak script, and an overall bland tone.

The characters are painfully stupid, making one stupid decision after the other in a progressively worsening "comedy" of errors. There is no humour in this, in fact it's not funny at all and the subject matter is extremely tasteless and shallow. It was a complete waste of data/time. This movie really shows how dumbed down people have become. It stoops very low. have become… Expand
