A funnier-than-expected, thrillingly accurate assessment of what makes a night out in Los Angeles such a nightmare.
Overview
Tongue-in-cheek look at 20-something singles clubbing and partying in L.A. Voice-over narration, charts and graphs, and visits to a research laboratory punctuate the story of a single night when groups of friends go out, drink alcohol, take drugs, dance and talk, and look for someone to go home with.
Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Pic's rough production values and flubbed comedy contrast with the amusing and plentiful voice-over narration and the dazzling graphic design that suggests Peter Max on ecstasy.
