‘The Wrong Girls’ Review: Kristen Stewart & Alia Shawkat Are Co-Dependent Buds Who Can Read Minds (And Coughs) In Heartfelt Stoner Comedy

Dylan Meyer's "The Wrong Girls" is a wildly ridiculous stoner comedy starring Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat as Frankie and Molly, two potheads who stumble upon a mysterious package containing super drugs. Ignoring the potential dangers, Frankie and Molly decide to sell the drugs to make rent, but their plan quickly spirals into an international conspiracy involving foreign nationals, mad scientists, the FBI, and European assassins.

The two lovable protagonists, who share a love for Céline Dion, possess newfound psychic abilities after shooting up the drugs. With a script filled with nonsensical dialogue, wild antics, and a psychic dance number, "The Wrong Girls" embraces the absurd and delivers a perfect stoner comedy experience.
