Rule Breakers

I really enjoyed Rule Breakers. The story and the characters were compelling. It gave a real human face to the good and then bad guys. All of the characters are well developed and bring their personal outlook and the experiences that shaped them. It's nice to see a movie with a solid plot, whose hope, balanced with grave challeneges tell the story without a lot of gratuitous violence.

I was surprised that there was a lot more to see in the movie aftee what seemed like a generous trailer. The sets were well designed. It was well shot although the scenes that were intentionally shot as if they came from a cellphone wobbled more than I cared for. Otherwise. All good.

I was struck by the perseverance of the Roya Mahboob character to bring education and technology these Afghani girls who live in a culture where women's opportunities are severely limited by the Taliban. The actors portraying the girls did an amazing job of making me feel the emotions the characters were expressing, particularly a bright hope that they could accomplish what many, if not most men, in their society believed was impossible. On a completely separate note, knowing that the United States has now abandoned Afghanistan conditions will likely be even worse for girls there. This is important story about freedom, especially for women. I sincerely hope that feminists support this movie.

A true story told in a fashion that moved me in ways that I haven't encountered in some time. We saw both the young women's struggles and successes. I was both impressed by the women's courage and yet saddened that they had to even face the cultural restrictions for women in Afghanistan.

Angel Studios shows that they know what they are doing as they continue to create compelling movies that educate, inspire and entertain.

Definitely a movie worth seeing for young and old, both for it's content as well as to support Angel Studios. Definitely go get your tickets while it's still in the theaters and enjoy the show.

This movie brings understanding to the world of what even in this modern age how women in beautiful Afghanistan are kept from personal success and their happiness is denied by male role. The casting is excellent, and the world competitions are brilliantly covered. I loved seeing the robotics competitions, and all the nations coming together to participate and support each other united in the love of robotics. The quality of the film is very good, the acting is honest and real, emotionally relevant and the subject is so important. This is a story that needed to be shared, such a wonderful film.

I had not heard a single thing about this movie but saw it was playing. I watched the trailer and it looked pretty good. I never expected it to be as amazing as it was! This story deserved to be told, and it connects people to Afghanistan in a totally different way than most are used to. I feel it's a must see, for the whole family. My heart hurts for the way they have lived for so long, even worse since 2021. Those children, women, people, deserve so much better! We can always be blessed that great minds can connect the entire world in a way that most people can never connect too. Thanks for making this movie, ill be suggesting it to everyone I talk too!
