The Re-Education of Molly Singer

This film is an entertaining comedy with a plot that, while having its uneven moments, still manages to charm and amuse. The film, set in a college environment, weaves a story of personal growth and transformation that intermittently shines with comedic brilliance.

Britt Robertson, in her role as Molly Singer, a fun-loving attorney tasked with reforming her boss's son Elliot, portrayed by Ty Simpkins, delivers a performance filled with energy and wit. While the plot occasionally stumbles in its execution, Robertson's vibrant portrayal keeps the audience engaged. The dynamic between Robertson and Simpkins adds a layer of entertainment, despite some narrative inconsistencies.

The casting is well done, with each actor bringing a unique flavor to the film. Overall, The Re-Education of Molly Singer stands out as an enjoyable comedy, offering a mix of laughter and light-hearted moments amidst a plot that, while not flawless, provides a satisfactory and entertaining experience.

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.

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.

To everyone saying it's funny, I think I know why :/.

We watched because we like "Molly" but I'm giving it a 4 because Jamie Presley is great in it and the only funny one. Molly was freaking annoying with her over the top cool party girl and yelling like a banshee all the time. The other actors all must have been going back to college to finish degrees too because everyone is like 30-40 years old, definitely not 18-24.

The college antics were foolish, we were dumb in college and partied and did silly things but the embellishments they did to make the movie funny made it very not funny. There were a few funny parts, like the gym scene with the mascot (no spoilers). Maybe things are really different now but I'm only a little older than Molly is supposed to be as a lawyer. I know to each their own but this is a place we are allowed (maybe) to voice our opinions of a show or movie for others to take into account. Sorry but There's no way this movie gets 8's much less 10,'s please!

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.
