When her fiancé uses their "celebrity pass" agreement, Midwest bride Gail Daughtry travels to Hollywood seeking revenge by pursuing her own celebrity encounter.

Catch-22 says: David Wain’s latest, *Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass*, is a comedic whirlwind, though not always for the right reasons. Zoey Deutch shines as Gail, embodying a delightful blend of Midwestern charm and simmering vengeance that anchors the entire film. Her chemistry with Jon Hamm and Kerri Kenney is electric, each actor perfectly attuned to the film's unique comedic rhythm. Hamm, in particular, delivers a performance that is both hilariously self-aware and surprisingly nuanced. Kenney, as always, is a scene-stealer, her every line landing with precision. The film's energy never flags, thanks to its brisk 93-minute runtime, ensuring a consistent pace that keeps the audience engaged. While the entertainment value remains solidly in the "okay" category, it's largely propelled by the strength of its cast. Unfortunately, the narrative itself often feels like a missed opportunity, a convoluted journey that struggles to fully capitalize on its intriguing premise. The plot, frankly, is a significant weak point, frequently veering into the absurd without the necessary comedic payoff. Despite these structural stumbles, the sheer talent on screen makes *Gail Daughtry* a watchable, if uneven, experience. Deutch’s magnetic presence alone almost redeems its narrative shortcomings.
