Scott Eastwood, a star on the rise, takes a break from massive blockbusters ('Suicide Squad', 'Fate of the Furious') to play Drew, a struggling LA lawyer hoping to hop careers and catch his big break as an actor in the indie comedy 'Walk of Fame'. Unfortunately for Drew—but fortunately for audiences—the eclectic cast of characters he meets at the prestigious acting workshop Star-Maker Academy drag him down with them into lunacy. These wannabe thespians' uncontrollable lust for wealth and fame incites the film's outrageously over the top gags. 'Fame' delights in skewering the brutal business of trying to make it as an actor in the competitive Hollywood industry. In many ways, this approach (of ridiculing the industry depicted in the film) parallels Ben Stiller's 'Zoolander', which derived countless puns and gags from the pretentious modelling underworld. Any fan of raunchy comedies will find a lot to love here.
This film tells the story of a handsome young man, who joins an acting class in order to be close to a beautiful female stranger. He encounters any strange events, but makes a bunch of friends along the way.
The story of "Walk of Fame" is really horrendous. It contains a parade of incredibly clichéd characters. Every major ethnic group is represented, and it also includes people of shorter stature, gays and lesbians. It is good to have a diverse cast, but in this film the cast is so forcefully put together that it looks more like a circus show. The story is basically a constant stream of either people being really nasty to each other, or acting really strange. The jokes with endless sexual innuendos are funny the first time, but really tiring after the tenth time. I do wonder why Scott Eastwood is involved with this horrendous project. His character rolls his eyes many times in the film, when unbelievable things happen. I can say that Eastwood's facial expression is actually genuine, because I can't believe what a train wreck I am watching on the screen.

I have to say there aren't too many movies out there that are so bad that you have to keep watching until the end. The plot was quite predictable, the acting was horrendous, and the cinematography was barely up to par. I was also quite disappointed that Scott Eastwood, a man of a higher caliber, would accept a role and movie so diminishing to his career.
I basically wasted an hour and a half watching this.

No eastwood,has ever been comedic funny Clint was good at biting sarcasm.But really roll on the floor funny.Never. Neither is his son.Scott I would never though someone with the name Eastwood, could do a movie so bad,that it should be removed it from the face of the earth. You keep wondering how they got anyone on board with this turkey. Malcolm McDowell,Scott Eastwood.I mean these are BIG names.Why would they wanna do a stinker like this. There was a few chuckles in the beginning,but after that,it was all down hill
...this sucked. And, I really like these actors. They tried their best with goofy material that rarely hits the mark. I give it 3 stars for taking aim at political correctness in spots, but it's not enough. The script's silliness brings groans where they wanted solid laughs. I wouldn't mind seeing the same cast with better material.
