THE WRONG GIRLS
Dylan Meyer | 2026 | USA | 1h39m | Presented in the original English audio with English subtitles
THE WRONG GIRLS is a gloriously stupid stoner comedy built around Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat as two broke LA roommates whose already chaotic lives become considerably more chaotic after they accidentally smoke an experimental drug.
Stewart plays Frankie, a Stanford dropout with zero priorities besides getting high, while Shawkat plays Molly, an aspiring chef who is equally happy drifting through life in a cloud of smoke. They’re behind on rent, permanently buzzed and surrounded by the kind of domestic clutter that suggests neither of them has made a sensible decision in quite some time. When a mysterious briefcase lands in their apartment, the drugs inside give them telepathic abilities, and what follows is a night that neither of them will ever forget.
THE WRONG GIRLS is the feature directorial debut of Dylan Meyer, who also wrote the screenplay, and there’s something genuinely refreshing about what she does with the stoner comedy. For decades the genre has largely belonged to men, from CHEECH & CHONG and HALF BAKED to HAROLD & KUMAR and PINEAPPLE EXPRESS. Men were allowed to get high, waste their lives, make terrible decisions and remain lovable idiots while doing it. Meyer simply hands that freedom to women.
Frankie and Molly aren’t required to be admirable, aspirational or especially responsible. They’re allowed to be selfish, horny, lazy, funny and occasionally very stupid. That might sound like a small shift, but female characters in mainstream comedy have historically been given far less room to behave badly without the film eventually demanding that they learn a lesson. THE WRONG GIRLS has little interest in correcting its protagonists. Its feminism is less a speech than the simple pleasure of watching two women occupy a genre that rarely gives them this much permission to misbehave.
The supporting cast is stacked. LaKeith Stanfield, Kate McKinnon, Geena Davis, Tony Hale and Zack Fox all appear, while Seth Rogen and Kumail Nanjiani lend their voices to the cats. Stewart and Shawkat, however, are the reason the whole thing works. They play Frankie and Molly like two people who have spent far too much time together, finishing each other’s sentences, enabling each other’s worst ideas and somehow remaining completely convincing as BFF's throughout the escalating nonsense.
Most importantly, it’s genuinely funny. Stewart is especially good at playing exasperation, awkwardness and stupidity in the same beat, while Shawkat has the perfect deadpan energy to keep the film from floating away completely. At 99 minutes, THE WRONG GIRLS moves quickly, rarely stops for explanation and gives Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat the sort of ridiculous female buddy comedy Hollywood really should have been making years ago..
