When Gail Daughtry (Zoey Deutch) is asked who her celebrity free pass is, she says her fiancé Tom (Michael Cassidy) because he was the quarterback at their local high school. After being prodded by her best friend and coworker Otto (Miles Gutierrez-Riley), she reluctantly chooses Jon Hamm. But when Tom gets caught in the act with his celebrity crush, Gail and Otto jet off to Los Angeles in desperate search of the “Mad Men” star. Along the way, they become fast friends with a ragtag group of Hollywood misfits while suddenly being pursued by a mysterious organized crime leader (Sabrina Impacciatore) in search of a missing briefcase.

Redefining the sex comedy for new audiences, David Wain’s Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass is a ridiculous romp through tinseltown with celebrity cameos and expletives abound. Defying expectations at every turn with an acerbic wit and unbreakable sense of optimism, Wain and co-screenwriter Ken Marino’s screenplay is fresh, funny and freaky in all the right ways.—Cyrus Cohen
