Or stay? Even though she is not supposed to do the latter, according to her mom and others. Then again, no one puts ... Girl in the corner (no pun intended). The movie gives us Bella Thorne as the main character ... and one feisty at that.
The movie is quite predictable and you may wonder why she chooses to do certain things ... but then again, maybe you don't and just go with the flow of her doing things. Mean people trying to get to her and a quite predictable twist towards the end.
It's always nice to see Mickey Rourke, but also a bit frightening the way he looks now. Not sure how he got that way (I assume it was drugs), but it didn't take anything away from his acting abilities. Whatever that means to you. And if you don't mind the bullet/hatchet thing toward the end ... well it's quite likely you won't be too dissapointed with the movie ...

I dont think I have ever given a movie such a low scoring. The writers must have been on Meth.
This movie is absolutely dreadful, I have no idea how people actually thought this would be a good idea. The main protagonist stumbles into town like she is Clint Eastwood on a mission to kill her father.....ok that's interesting. She walks into this crappy abandoned town and once she finds the bar the "dialogue" starts and I start to wonder if I made a very bad decision. Yes folks I did.. I was left speechless at not only how ridiculous the acting was but also at the decisions and developments that went on in this movie. I had to wonder if this was supposed to be a plot as the movie was just so so bad. It got worse and worse but I had to finish to give it a fair rating and that I did. Anyone else telling you this is a 9/10 is on meth too. If you want to enjoy this movie I guess you could do that too but that would be the ONLY way.
Dont say I didnt warn ya!!!!!

Nothing great here but it was entertaining acting was decent again nothing great I like Rourke but hes hard to watch that plastic surgery is just horrible. Anyway if you have nothing else to watch it's an ok movie was worth watching once. Had no idea I knew who bella was she is just ok in this film.
When I started watching Chad Faust's "Girl", I only that it was about a girl who goes to visit her dad (possibly with the intention of killing him), only to find him murdered, setting off a string of events. Sure enough, there's more than meets the eye.
If you don't like slow-paced movies, then you'll want to avoid this one. Mind you, the slow pacing is to let the characters develop. I understand that Bella Thorne got her start on a Disney Channel show; if you only know her from that, then you're in for a shock with the rough character that she plays in this movie. It's not a great movie, but the solid direction and performances keep the movie afloat. Worth seeing, if only once; certainly more interesting than the average movie where Tom Cruise narrowly escapes all danger.

This is by no means the greatest thriller and the story is very predictable; however, Bella Thorne did a good job for the role provided. In addition, Mickey Rourke was solid as well during his major scenes. He was calm, yet menacing. I felt that the interplay between the two main characters was one of the few highlights in the film and provided some much-needed tension. The plot and general reason for the character's motives are not surprising, very one dimensional in nature. There is also a major twist late in the movie; however, depending on how much you were paying attention you might be shocked or see it coming a mile away.
Regardless of the general mediocrity of Girl (2020), I felt it was enjoyable to watch and merits a viewing, especially if you can watch it on your preferred streaming service. I would not recommend purchasing this movie though, it is more of a rental at most. 5/10 for the fact that Bella and Mickey carried this movie with their presence.

Did you know
- TriviaBella Thorne accused Mickey Rourke of hitting her crotch in a scene where he was supposed to hit her knee caps with a metal grinder. She mentioned that the incident left her with bruises on her pelvic bone. Thorne also claimed Rourke humiliated her, including revving his engine to cover her in dirt and that he refused to speak to directors or producers and that she had to go to his trailer "to convince him to do his job."
- GoofsWhen Sheriff and Charmer start tearing up the bathroom tile, they are beside the bath tub. Girl had told them that what they are looking for was under the tub.
They couldn't lift the cast iron clawfoot tub, so they were trying to tunnel under it.
