Girl power - La rivoluzione comincia a scuola

I think that this movie is going to wind people up. Which is hilarious because that is the whole point of the movie to get under peoples skin and make them think.

Most people that see this film and dislike it are going to do so because they see them selfs reflected in the people the movie is talking about.

I think that this movie will really be an empowering movie for teenage girls. Lots of films try to do this but i think that this movie succeeds where others don't because it doesn't pander to its audience. It was grounded for the most part.

Some characters did border on cartoony, which brings me to my biggest issue with the movie. The actor of Mitchell. He wasn't a very good actor anyway but the worst part was how old he looked. He is nearly 30 and i know that this happens in lots of shows and movie and probably he isn't the only one not playing his age in this movie. The issue is that he just stuck out like a sore thumb. Every time he was on screen i was like "Oh there is an adult man". It was just incredibly distracting. He was meant to be 16?

Another small issue i had was the back end to the second act and the beginning of the third. It seemed to lose its focus and fell off the tracks a little bit for me.

Thankfully it finds its way when it begins to wrap the movie up. I think the ending is really great, i do wish it wasn't over as abruptly. I think this could have been fixed by trimming the movie down and then just giving a few of them minutes to the end.

This movie was really good and i think that people should see it. I do however think that this movie is going to get a lot of hate and bad reviews because it is a feminist movie so make sure you watch it and support it.

It's a good movie. Well made. Well acted. But because it's about the feminism and the issues women face every day a bunch of males will be severely triggered.

Ignore any review that uses phrases like "get woke, go broke" or complain about how men are portrayed.

This movie was very eye opening. As a straight man we need to do better by the women in our society. Some of the reviews here are absolutely disgusting, and made by little men that think women's equality is a threat to them. They're afraid of no longer being able to mistreat women.

This is very much on the nose in its messaging, and there are a lot of more complex ways that this subject matter could be explored. The overt and straightforward way that this tackles extremely complex subject matters will definitely not work for some people. But I think the film is definitely aware of this fact, and instead tries to create a more upbeat and simple portrayal of feminism, and in that regard I think it works well. Amy Poehler's direction is solid, the performances are good and the first two acts in particular are pretty enjoyable. I do think the focus should have been more on some of the side characters, who all things considered were much more interesting, but that doesn't mean that the lead character's arc wasn't pretty strong. It is a bit too long for its own good, and again oversimplifies a complicated topic, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that I had a smile on my face when the credits started to roll. Overall, it's an uplifting and enjoyable if flawed film, and I'd definitely recommend it.

There's something said in the movie that summarizes this movie perfectly: We have made a lot of mistakes, but I'm really glad we did it. Yeah, I butchered the quote, but I thought it fitted well. I really liked what this movie tries to say. Yes, it makes some mistakes. The third act is a bit messy. It kinda feels like it completely forgot what it was trying to say, but picked it up again after a while. It also is a bit awkward with the way the teens speak. I'm a teen myself and I have never heard someone say: 'That's rad!' But I have to admit, it was really nice to see these girls stand up for themselves. The 'villain' of the movie is a bit too much in my opinion, but there are people in this world like him. There are human being who behave like that, and it's really uplifting to see the girls unit. I actually stood up at the end speech because I felt what these girls have been trough. The movie is really cleverly written, and it makes it so that we really start to care for a girl that we don't know. I just leave this movie with a very positive feeling and I hope there are teens out there who will feel inspired.
