The Wrong Girls deliver chaotic charm in a starry stoner caper

LA Times critic Amy Nicholson calls The Wrong Girls a gloriously silly, brain-off stoner comedy led by Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat. Two roommates gain telepathic powers, get mistaken for a courier’s target, and sprint through a chaotic, cat‑filled chase that playfully subverts genre tropes while leaning on the leads’ chemistry. The film embraces its sloppy energy with inventive visuals and a subversive, pacifist edge, though the ending credits bit lands awkwardly for some viewers.

Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat promote their weed‑themed comedy The Wrong Girls, directed by Dylan Meyer, describing a film that blends highbrow/lowbrow influences to explore female friendship and aging at 36. The story follows Frankie and Molly on the run after a case of mistaken identity, with quirky elements like telekinetic cats and a cameo‑heavy world (LaKeith Stanfield, Kate McKinnon, Geena Davis). Produced by Nevermind Pictures, the project faces international sales challenges due to cannabis legality, but aims for a playful, anarchic energy rather than a didactic message.

Dupieux’s Full Phil Falters as a Surreal Cannes Two-Hander

At Cannes, Quentin Dupieux’s 78-minute surreal two‑hander Full Phil, starring Woody Harrelson and Kristen Stewart, is visually lush and sprinkled with Dupieux’s oddball touches, but the review finds the relationship at its center thin and repetitively written. Despite a few mischievous moments and a late attempt to deepen the father–daughter dynamic, the film largely stalls, leaving both leads to carry material that never fully connects. It premieres at Cannes, seeks U.S. distribution, and earns a cautious C+ rating.
