Featured reviews
To my delightful surprise, this movie proved to be one of the finest comedies I've come across in recent years. It had me laughing like never before, a refreshing experience after a long time. Meghan Miles delivered an outstanding performance, undoubtedly the best character in the movie. The pookie guy's hilarious accent served as the cornerstone of the comedy, leaving a lasting impression. The movie's humorous moments revolving around the crack house and pot were nothing short of a laugh riot. Yet, despite its comedic brilliance, the film remains highly underrated.
I find myself craving more movies of this caliber that can evoke such genuine laughter. This hidden gem deserves greater recognition and appreciation. It's a must-watch for anyone seeking a hearty dose of laughter and an unforgettable comedic experience.

This movie is far from a masterpiece. It's pretty corny at times, and also has a couple of racist moments that are just glossed over. But ultimately, I enjoyed it. While some parts are hard to believe, watching the main character wind up in bizarre situations was entertaining enough. If you're looking for a chill comedy and don't have Oscar level standards, give it a shot.
No matter what else is said.. the movie officially begins at the eleven minute mark when she puts on that 'can't hardly describe it' yellow dress. From that point on, it is the honest reason why you're staying watching this movie. Overall the film is cute, and has a chuckle or two (some scenes are in fact very funny).. but it's that dress sticking in your mind keeps you watching. That and the perfect hair... that's 'wanna own up to it or not' is the essence of this film. You'll watch all the rest, and not very long after will not easily remember any of it. But should the vision of that dress come back to mind, it'll bring back much more than you thought you'd ever recall.
This one was surprisingly good.
If you're going to a movie with a hot blonde in a tight yellow dress on the poster - you better expect what such type of movies usually puts on the screen. You'll get your laughs.
Yet, Walk of Shame was so much more than just a slightly dirty comedy. It gave an insight to the life of LA area some might not realize there is. It showed how friendship is important and that total strangers are not necessarily wierdos and perverts.
And, of course, Meghan is a nice girl from Texas. That's great.
As a cat lover, I was mildly surprised to the problem that Banks' character has. So strange. I have the same problem with some dogs, so no big deal!

You know how it is: Strange things happen when you least expect them. But this is of course more like a female (tweaked) version of Hangover. The situations occurring here are a crude mix of what might have happened to someone on many different nights. Elizabeth Banks is a good sport, having to endure and go through a lot. If you want to see one, there's also a message about strong women here (which is not a bad thing at all, considering the stereotypes we get to see here).
Clichés and jokes may not always mix well, but the passion of the actors involved (even if James Marsden is merely a bystander in this one as are most of the other in the Banks show on display) do help the movie to elevate above other comedies. Not much, but at least a little bit. Obviously comedy/humor is not something that will be viewed the same by everyone. Tastes are different and this might not be your movie to watch
