This movie felt a bit like a horrible fever dream and I loved every single second of it. I was captivated by the beautiful scenery and transitions between screenplay and up-close showcases of the food. It truly was a visual masterpiece. But as the movie goes on, I also came to realize that it is a true satire and dark comedy. The director has balanced perfectly between absurdity and seriousness so that us as the watcher can suspend disbelief but also laugh out loud at the pretentious absurdity. I loved the message this film send, being 'what is the point of anything if you're unhappy', and that happiness and success are mutually inclusive.

This was visually incredible and quite engaging to watch. I loved Miss Flo's performance. She STOLE the show. I think the message got a little lost in the subpar ending. I got the whole feminine rage thing - but I feel like the message could have been solidified in a better way. Also, we saw very little acting wise from some of the other actors. Harry could have been replaced with anybody and it wouldn't have made any difference because his character had so little significance. I will say though that I did not predict the plot twist, and as a fan of sci-fi and horror I was pleasantly surprised.

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.
