WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

From a young age, Amy (Schumer) and her sister Kim (Larson) have been taught that monogamy can never work. Now writing for a prestigious New York magazine, Amy lives by this mantra and regularly sleeps around while never attaching herself to any long-term commitment. When she is sent to write an article about sports doctor Aaron Conners (Hader), the pair hit it off and Amy soon starts to ponder if she should forsake her past life to try something new…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

A comedian on the rise thanks to her viral hit comedy show Inside Amy Schumer, it’s no surprise that Schumer’s film debut Trainwreck packs her trademark edgy humour to best show her talents to the world.
