The Re-Education of Molly Singer

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!

Loved the movie from the beginning to the end to the outtakes. It held my attention and I laughed throughout the movie. It was well written and I would highly recommend this movie to all my friends. In todays world we need more movies like this that can make us laugh.

I loved that Molly was forced to go back to college and help someone who probably had no self confidence to begin with. I remember how hard it can be starting out in any university setting and feeling unpopular. I loved the fact that she was forced to go back but once she did she changed somebody's else's life. The whole audience was laughing. Love Brit Robertson Nina.

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.

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.

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.
