Rough Night Churchill The House A bachelorette party goes unthinkably wrong! Behind every great man is a great woman... All bets are off in this side- splitting comedy caper Boasting an incredible cast that includes – JUN wait for it! – Scarlett Johansson, Zoë Kravitz, Kate McKinnon and Demi Moore, this snort-inducing black comedy sees five college friends reuniting for a rude, crude, booze-laden bachelorette party at a gorgeous beach house in Miami. But then the hunky male stripper they ordered winds up dead. Yikes! If you loved Bridesmaids and Bad Moms, then you’re going to go absolutely nuts for Rough Night. It’s a rip-roaring frenzy of estrogen-fuelled fun. Starring Brian Cox as Britain’s late, great JUN wartime leader, this riveting historical thriller documents the 24 hours before the D-Day landings in 1944. Desperate not to repeat his greatest military mistake (which saw many hundreds of thousands of men slaughtered in Gallipoli in 1915), Prime Minister Winston Churchill is reluctant to give the order for the retaking of Nazi-occupied Europe to begin. Can his devoted wife persuade him that it’s always darkest before the dawn? Written and directed by Andrew J. Cohen JUN (who also penned Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates), this laugh-out-loud comedy sees married couple Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler starting an underground casino in their basement after realising that they don’t have enough money to send their beloved daughter Alex to college. In Ferrell and Poehler, The House has two of the finest and funniest actors working in Hollywood today. Add to that a one-liner-stuffed script and you’ve got yourself a winner. 16 16 30 Watch the trailer Download ODEON Magazine Want to receive ODEON Magazine straight to your device every month?
