    Better then I expected

    I'm glad I didn't let the negative reviews stop me from giving this a go.

    Yes it's low budget, but it was still a decent movie.

    I understand some people may not find this movie relatable, but for me it was.

    I could relate to quite a few of the different characters and what they went through happens to multiple women every day. Perhaps their reaction wasn't true to life, but perhaps it is.

    I hope that people watch this and keep their minds open.

    The movie moves quickly, a lot happens in a short amount of time. I almost felt like it could have been fleshed out into a mini series.

    I guess it's the sort of movie that will make you feel a sense of empowerment or make you defensive and angry, depending on your point of view.

    Could have been better but very good for the emotions

    This movie popped up on my Instagram feed and I wanted to check it out. Kiersey Clemons, Vanessa Hudgens, Alexandra Shipp, Ezra Miller. This was a stellar cast in my book, so for that I wanted to see what it was about.

    It was good intent, good actors, and I loved the messaged. I'm a believer of vengeance and this movie is perfect for that. Not really a good idea to do what these ladies did but it may help if you watch them do it (Very Batman)

    Its delivery does not click like I should. All the actors give a good performance but it's not coming together. It gets to a point where I start to lose interest.

    But I still liked it.

    lol. This is terrible

    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.

    Good intentions can go wrong

    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.

    Just ok

    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.

      Regina: What no one else will. I mean you're right about Beatrice, she does fucked up shit. But she comes from fucked up shit. I'm glad you called her out. I'm sick of fucking doing it myself.
