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.

Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass is basically a steady stream of gags and utter ridiculousness, and in that regard, it mostly throws softballs. Go to Full Review Peter Howell Toronto Star Jun 26
Tinseltown isn’t shocked by her quest -- L.A. has seen weirder things -- but that doesn’t mean the trek is going to be easy. It is, however, riotously funny, a bit raunchy and loaded with star cameos. Go to Full Review Aisha Harris NPR Feb 12
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 Aaron Neuwirth We Live Entertainment 1d
7/10
This is the sort of comedy happy to call attention to its various riffs and double back on itself for the sake of making it clear that this film understands the conventions it’s leaning into. Go to Full Review Tim Stevens The Spool 3d
While I typically think of her as a far tarter performer thanks to the likes of Flower and Buffaloed, [Deutch] makes Gail a sweet delight that never comes across as caricature. Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com 6d

A breath of fresh air, with Wain and Marino out to have scripted fun with the material, scoring big laughs along the way. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
