As Vigilantes

This movie was nothing special. It felt extremely low budget but with some charm. The actors abilities to act felt forced so it made it hard for me to like this one. I guess it was ok for a one time watch but I really didn't enjoy it. As a women I have no point of views in this movie. I just came to be entertained and that didn't happen. So I will not recommend this movie and I myself will not be watching it again. I still think the chick from Tragedy Girls and Hudgens are sexy af though.

Eamon O'Rourke directed this and then showed his true colors by beating a trans women at Clara's in Brooklyn, so I guess this movie really was just a virtue signal to boost his career.

Right, well the cover for this 2021 thriller from writer and director Eamon O'Rourke is what lured me into watching it. Had I heard about "Asking for It" prior to watching it? No. So I wasn't sure what I was in for here, but the cover was interesting and thus I opted to watch it.

And you can't judge a movie by its cover. While "Asking for It" is labeled as a thriller, this was more of a female-empowered revenge movie. Not much of a thriller, and this is where writer and director Eamon O'Rourke lost me along the way. I was expecting a rather different type of movie, and was instead served a cold dish of movie that didn't fall into my flavor.

The storyline in "Asking for It" was a swing and a miss in terms of providing me with any sense of entertainment or enjoyment. It was a mixture and combination of slow narrative and lack of anything interesting that killed off the movie for me, so it never really had a snowballs chance in Hell. And this is certainly not a movie that I would recommend anyone run out and waste their money, time or effort on.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Asking for It", and that is usually something I like when I watch movies. But since the cast virtually had nothing worthwhile or interesting to work with here in terms of script, characters, dialogue or action, then the movie was just a dud. I am sure that the acting performances were fair enough, I just didn't have an interest in it.

Sadly, then the movie's cover was the most exciting and interesting thing about this entire ordeal.

My rating of the 2021 movie "Asking for It" lands on a two out of ten stars.

Wow! I read the reviews but still expected this to have something worthy of viewing. Was I ever wrong. This is one of the top three worst movies I have ever watched, despite having a decent cast. The story sucks, the directing sucks and the execution is pretty bad.

No pun intended - the premise of the movie or the message or whatever you want to call it ... well it is a fine cause. It does point to something that is relevant to say the least. It is something our society has not been able to get rid of. I am not sure how the future will look like and how genders are going to treat each other. I do know that there is way too much toxicity in many aspects of life and unfortunately some have made it almost fashionable to be mean to others and not even apologize for it.

Of course there were other instances where it went the other way altogether ... still the amount of abuse women have to endure in general ... not cool. The title also is a pun by the way ... no one is asking for it obviously. The movie does go a bit in a different direction that I suspected not showing us the victim side too much, but the reaction to it ... there is potential in this or rather was I reckon ... depending on how able you are to suspend your disbelief, you will like this more or less.
