Moxie: Quando as Garotas Vão à Luta

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 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.

I just watch this movie today. My thoughts in general are that this movie is a relatively good movie. While I did not feel like I related to this movie with my own high school experience three years ago, I know others who would probably say otherwise. This movie gets a really thinking about things, and if there are schools that have become just as toxic as the one shown the movie which is entirely possible, then this movie holds some truth and reality. There are people who will knock this movie saying it's just the classic crazy feminism(the type that says all men are bad and and doesn't shout equality), but this movie I think hits on point of the right type of feminism that promotes unity and respect, and equal treatment of women who don't get heard when they speak up.

Too many times have we seen the same story about bullying in high school and took it as a necessary part of coming of age. When is it time to speak up? When is it time to say - that's enough? How to stand your ground when others make you believe you are overreacting? Watch it with your daughter and tell her to always hold her head up high.

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.
