Small town hairdresser Gail Daughtry is engaged to her devoted high school sweetheart, Tom. Her life takes a turn when a trip to a book signing leads to Tom meeting -- and sleeping -- with his "celebrity pass". Reeling from the betrayal, Gail impulsively joins her friend Otto on a trip to Los Angeles, where a psychic convinces Gail that the only way to save her marriage is to "even the scales" with her own celebrity pass: Jon Hamm. Thus begins an epic journey through Tinseltown as Gail and Otto join forces with a talent agency assistant, a paparazzo, and actor John Slattery, all in the search for Hamm. Along the way, they collide with celebrities and are hunted by a group of Italian assassins as they get ever closer to finding the elusive star.

Jokes about Los Angeles and the cult of celebrity fly fast and free and fun cameos abound; look out for many of Wain's frequent collaborators. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Feb 3

3/5
A parody that’s not really parodying anything in particular. Everyone is committed to the bit though, whatever the bit might actually be, and the fun that they’re all having is infectious enough to sweep us along too. Go to Full Review Rachel Wagner Rachel's Reviews (YouTube) Feb 12
