Naked

This is a comedy film with the main actors Marlon Wayans, Regina Hall and Jonathan Todd Jackson. Everything starts when the substitute teacher Rob Anderson is offered a full time job, but he hasn’t decided about taking it yet. 

He is about to get married with the love of his life, but there is a little long term obstacle, his father-in-law, who is rich and wants his daughter to get married to a wealthy man. When they go to the rehearsal of their wedding Rob finds out his father-in-law has invited the ex of his fiancée, yes, pretty awkward. After the rehearsal he asks his best friend and wedding god-father to have a bachelor party a day before the event. Here, it all goes to hell for him. For some unknown reason, he wakes up without memory of last night, he’s naked and trapped in an elevator, and he is really late for his wedding.

He needs to get to the hotel, get dressed and pick a cab to the church. And he gets to a hotel quickly, but not his… yes, wrong hotel. He insists until he talks to a maid making the cleaning and shows him a towel with the name of the hotel he’s in, and still naked, he runs through a marathon and gets arrested, at that time a bell sounds and the day starts over. This happen many times until he realizes the reasons he is getting married and about a secret plan of taking his father-in-law company, and stops it.

In my opinion this is a low budget movie that will make you laugh hard a couple times, and in the background you can find positive things that the film has during the story. For example, we can see how a man fights destiny to fulfill his dreams and not disappointing the girl he loves. Second, there are always good people in our path that are willing to help. Getting married is a huge decision, we have to think not only in the love we require to do it, but all the hard work that comes ahead in our lives, we need to live selfishness behind and start being the best version of ourselves.
