Do Revenge

Double crossing, double dealing, all the way, with treachery and betrayal the mainstay, you'll be swindled and hoodwinked, no time to ponder, or to think, the tables turning, bridges burning, with a large kink.

The desperate and despicable depths the ladies of Rosehill Country Day High School go to in their quest for one-upmanship, presented in a far from inelegant way that captures your attention and leaves you transfixed at their propensity to cheat, trick, deceive and mislead - in the most spectacular of ways and with very little concern for the consequences. I only wish things had been this exciting when I was at school.

I went into this film blind and Ive got to say it's so clearly inspired by Clueless, Mean Girls, 10 Things I Hate About You, and more teen comedies.

It's incredible. As a kid born in '96 the vibe of this film was SO cozy and familiar. It was like rewatching all my favourite teen comedies with the added bonus of hightened and modern aesthetics

I'm also so down for the queer rep and commentary on toxic masculinity and fake feminism. C'mon the 'cis hetero men championing female identifying students' committee. Hysterical.

As someone who loves to illustrate pop culture moments and movie scenes I am dyinnnng to take some from this film. The pastels ugh.

Also - what a plot twist.

This was a nice movie. I really loved the performance by both the leading actors. This is the first movie that i am watching staring maya hawke, and God she looks so much like her mother uma thurman. The movie really touches on some social issues in schools and of life in general, but saying that would be a spoiler. Amazing camera work and production design. The movie gives a 80s retro vibe, I liked it very much. The writing was nice, especially the plot twists were revealled very smothly and also impacts us to an extent. The music was nice, gave the movie a youthful vibe and was also fun to listen.

The issue I had with the movie is the climax. Felt a bit rushed. The issues got solved pretty quick. They could have improved the writing in the climax.

So, I'm old enough to have watched Clueless when it came out. And it's precedent, The Heathers. The GOAT. And then, SMG?!!! The CI reference isn't lost me, but you gotta be a certain age to get it. It was also a classic. And I mostly picked this movie late tonight knowing I could make it stop with the flick of my remote if it sucked. But this was surprisingly fun. It was smartly done. And PLOT TWIST! That elevated it. Poignant. VERY poignant. And even as I write this yet ANOTHER plot twist! And I authentically laughed out loud more than twice. And the soundtrack was fun + I was a Peace Corps volunteer so loved the shout out. And when I googled a little on the movie I learned some interesting history. So for once, I didn't ruin my own Saturday night by picking a crappy movie yet again. Yay me.

I'm so beyond high school but I really like to watch movies that makes me feel I'm young again and miss it high school is always high school over the ages. Regardless of students high straighten close in the movie.

The movie's Idea might not be new, but it's well made not like same " high school " cheap nowadays movies.

I like how they portrait hatred, and how being busy destroying someone, can actually ends up destroying you or your future.

I have to admit that the costumes were incredible and colorful well designed and well wore, even though they are not usual high school uniforms but I would love to wear it

Well done and was nice to watch I highly recommend it.
