Speech & Debate

I really enjoyed this movie!! :D It was only rated one and a half stars for me on Netflix but I don't know why because it was totally my kind of movie!! The only reason that I've rated it 8/10 stars on here is because it lacked the romance that it made me expect :D It's a really fun filled movie though - especially if you enjoy songs about crap sandwiches :'D

If you are coming to see a movie about debate then this is not a movie for you. The main focus of the film is about the three teens that make up the debate team and their struggles. I love how light hearted and funny this film is, and how the kids form a great bond with one another!

I thought this was a great movie with a fun and entertaining cast! It made me laugh, kept me entertained, and the story was cute.

It was so cult, until it turned into a slapstick, teenagers falling drunk and drugged into swindling, it misrepresented what would be a light and fun film about smart young liberals and militating for sexual freedom, single mothers and the like, the speech & debate he almost got lost... But he recovered brilliantly, that final musical, saved him, it was what I expected from these young "troublemakers" and reactionaries... A delightful, uncompromising film that raises a beautiful flag....

This film tells the story of three teenagers in high school, who try to fit in and to find themselves in a conservative town where their voices are not heard by adults. They choose to form a speech and debate club to make their voices heard.

"Speech & Debate" is a good teenage film, that convincingly tells realistic teenage troubles. People can easily relate to the topics shown in the film, such as school censorship, bullying and general social awkwardness during teenage years. The girl, Diwata, seems not a nice person to start with, but she is in fact confident, assertive, supportive and caring. I like the three teenagers in the film, and I like the positivity on the story. I enjoyed it.
