Yes I have seen it. I enjoyed it but beware, the trailer made it look like a Completelly different movie so that was a bit disappointing and I felt cheated but other than that I liked it ok. 7/10.

I assumed the entire movie couldn't just be her pretending to be drunk and trolling guys, though those were the best scenes of the movie. I liked it a lot. It was like an insane hybrid of revenge movie and romcom.

I am tossing up about going, in two minds about it. What were its politics and was it biased and slanted towards its own agenda of maligning males and making women out to be their victims and can do no wrong? Eh it goes deeper then that and doesn't nesscarily present all of Cassie's decisions as heroic at all.

I fucking loved it. My favorite movie of 2020. Great direction, superb editing, straddles that line between realism and surrealism. Phenomenal performances, killer soundtrack and score. I also didn't see the trailer so my experience was truly fresh.

I just don't want to sit through a film that derides males as though they are all the same and women are their prey that they easily fall victim to any deviant sexual behavior by males. Revenge they say is a dish best served cold.
it does exactly that. plus there is almost no "revenging" the trailer is very misleading. Its not a revenge slasher at all. Its a slow burn, meditative movie, with only one or two "action" scenes in it, pretty much no violence, its a cinematic essay and the topic is "why are men so bad" crossed with "look what sexual aggression does to people long term". I didnt hate it, its well done, but it was not a movie for me. Cannot imagine you liking it too much.

I also didn't see the trailer so my experience was truly fresh. that I believe can have a big impact on the viewing experience. I simply went in expecting a revenge slasher (thinking its going to be something like grown up Hit Girl from Kick Ass) but its completely different than the trailer makes one believe. But I agree its very well made.

9/10 its a cinematic essay and the topic is "why are men so bad" crossed with "look what sexual aggression does to people long term". I disagree. There are good men (Cassie's father and the cop). Also, the bad men are all from the same frat house or men who only show their true colors because of Cassie's. Those are very specific contexts.
