"What does a post-modern romantic writer do all day?" "Find beauty and praise it." "That's like the opposite of what I do."


Year: 2014
Directed and written by: Steven Brill

"A reporter's dream of becoming a news anchor is compromised after a one-night stand leaves her stranded in downtown L.A. without a phone, car, ID or money - and only 8 hours to make it to the most important job interview of her life."
- Summary written by anonymous


This film seemed like something funny and light to watch when not knowing what else to watch. And I was right. Walk of Shame may be funny, but the longer it goes on the less funny it seems. Everything is more or less repetitive, and everything goes badly again and again. The film doesn't offer anything new or surprising. The plot has been used thousands of times.

The movie should've been shorter. The makers probably just wanted to make that 1,5 hour film, yadda yadda, but the movie gets tiring. 

Walk of Shame reminded me slightly of What's Your Number. The opening of the movie seemed similar. Though the opening could've been much better. It seemed like the closing credits with a short piece of the movie showing or something like that. 

The cast was great, which felt like such a waste. Basically this film isn't worth a watch, even if it isn't the worst movie out there.
