The Re-Education of Molly Singer

I did enjoy it and don't get me wrong i watched it to the end but the blend of humor and serious themes is ambitious, yet occasionally misses the mark in terms of balance. The portrayal of Molly, the protagonist, is generally relatable, depicting a journey that mirrors a typical coming-of-age story. However, her character arc, while engaging, sometimes veers into predictable terrain. The supporting cast delivers adequate performances, though some characters lack depth and feel underutilized.

On the technical side, the film boasts commendable cinematography and a keen eye for detail, creating an immersive visual experience. The soundtrack, though diverse, is a mixed bag, with some selections enhancing the movie's atmosphere and others seeming somewhat disjointed.

This might appeal to those who enjoy narratives about self-discovery and change, though it doesn't entirely escape the pitfalls of its genre. It's a film with moments of clarity and charm but also one that might leave viewers wanting something a bit more groundbreaking.

Where do they find those lazy writers and bad actors lately???

This movie is unoriginal, trying too hard to imitate other comedies like 'No Hard Feelings' or 'Never Been Kissed'. It's as if one is watching a collection of the unfunny pieces of former comedy movies lazily stitched together with the actors just accidentally being there without any spark between them. Even the loud, mainly teal costume design feels tired. Rather than offering fresh insights or original humor the movie constantly leans into situations that border on the absurd without ever fully committing to the humor (for example an overly lengthy drinking game scene with a terrible narration that has no punchline).

The dialogues and story line appear to be AI generated - as do all the positive reviews on here to be honest - and with lackluster performances and jokes that don't land, this film struggles to elicit even a chuckle from its audience. I wish i could give it less than one star.

Clearly, most of the reviews of this are fake, or planted. Who, except for those paid would write something like that? They read like studio release announcements. So yeah... this movie is pretty bad. The script is stupid, ridiculously stupid. The plot lines are nonsensical, situations are unbelievable and many times cringeworthy. For a movie that is supposedly to be a comedy, it's not funny. There are many, many rip offs of scenes from other movies. Stereotypical drinking scenes that make you shake your head. The acting is pretty bad, the editing is lame, the soundtrack is cheap. Yeah, this is a bad movie, not funny at all.

The Re-Education of Molly Singer, directed by Andy Palmer and released in 2023, is a comedy that blends humor with themes of self-discovery and personal growth. Starring Britt Robertson as Molly, a vivacious attorney facing career jeopardy, the film follows her journey back to her alma mater to mentor her boss's son, Elliot (Ty Simpkins), navigating a path from social isolation to popularity. While Robertson delivers a dynamic performance, the film occasionally falls into predictability and fails to fully develop its supporting characters, played by Nico Santos and Jaime Pressly, among others.

Despite its reliance on some clichéd elements of college comedies, the film has its merits, particularly in the chemistry between Robertson and Simpkins. Their interactions provide heartfelt moments amidst the humor. Director Palmer's ambition to intertwine light-hearted comedy with serious undertones is evident, though not always effectively realized. "The Re-Education of Molly Singer" offers a mix of entertainment and life lessons, making it an enjoyable, if not groundbreaking, addition to the genre of character-driven comedies.

It's just bad. I wasted 45 minutes on it thinking it might get better. Dumbest old idea premise. Throw a couple of faces at the trailer to lure peopole in. Let's get drunk and puke college BS might appeal only to those who are actually in college still doing this childish stuff. Do yourself a favor and watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off again. It will be far more entertaining. Ok, I guess I need more characters or it's not good enough for the review. I think this is actually a steal from Legally Blonde movie that, although different, is on a similar path. I actually watched that whole movie, and as goofy as that was, it's tolerabe chewing gum for the brain.
