The Miseducation of Bindu

Granted, this is not a showstopper. It's been done plenty of times.

But I actually liked it. Entertaining. The lead actress Megan was a real pleasure to watch in action. Funny movie even.

Yeah I I'm a much older indian guy but damn reminded me alot about my high-school days. (Oblivious as heck, treating neards, girls with sweaty hands ect.) I could have been a much more positive person and this film really hit on that new kid social outcast aspect. Also the strict Indian parenting. The whole older cousin thing was kind of confusing. Was the cousin a dancer did she got the school? Kinda odd. Cool to see David Arquette do a great job in his performance. Worth the watch. I'd say it's under rated. Give it a shout send a like of u agree with me.

7/10 for me. They should make a surrey candian version of this with much more diversion to add to the mix.

Quirky, full of heart and featuring a diverse cast, The Miseducation of Bindu puts us right into the shoes of an Indian girl Bindu, played by the talented Megan Suri, as she navigates her local high school after her mom remarries. Starring the Scream franchise's David Arquette as her stepfather Bill and Priyanka Bose as her mother Kasturi, The Miseducation of Bindu is a sweet and heartwarming story about a teen who finds her true calling amidst the trials and tribulations of fitting into her new high school. The pot smoking sequence that leads to a very unexpected dance number is the highlight of the entire story and Megan Suri's fantastic acting is a sight to behold. With fantastic characters, energetic music and a story perfectly in line with the multicultural America of today, The Miseducation of Bindu soars above and beyond, delivering an emotionally poignant adventure that will win you over by the end.

I usually enjoy high-school teen comedies but The MisEducation of Bindu, for me, felt like a sore miss. It has all the ingredients of a teen comedy drama but somewhere something is off. Whether it is the unfitting Indian touch or the poor performances by the leading lady (it felt like she was auditioning for the role while the camera was rolling) or the high level of awkwardness even by teenage standards, I'm not sure. I also don't think I laughed during the 90 minutes because some of the sequences are massively cringeworthy and really not needed in my opinion. All in all, The MisEducation of Bindu tries hard but does not pass muster. Grade D.

I watched it and surprised I thought it was good.

Don't know if girls have these many problems in school. I would guess her problems at home and at school mix and gets confusing.

Saw the movie twice so to me that means it is good.

I was surprised in parts of the movie.

Megan Suri did a very good job as a high school girl.

Don't know what came 1st, this movie or the Netflix show 'Never Have I Ever'. But I like them both.

I wonder how much better the Netflix show would have been if Megan was the star instead of just one of the extras in it.

It is nice to see girls with the problems the boys face in school in movies.
