Thought this was really fun and funny in a lot of moments, but a lot of was just the sheer force of the leads, their acting, manic/mania delivery, the satire of Gen Z cliches and just in general an over anxious, self righetous, self interested cultural moment
it's rough around the edges, with a tone that is all over the place, a manic plot to match the writing, that veers into horror and feels like sketch comedy a lot of the time, it isn't a message movie, it has some messages, and something to say about feminism and patriarchy, and teenage sexuality, but it says different things at different points, and is tongue in cheek the entire time. The setting is like a hyper exaggerated school/world.
I really liked both leads, but Sennott I remember from Bodies Bodies Bodies, she was fukking hilarious. This is how a lot of women I know come across. Ayo is a little more straight man to her unhinged partner.
it's one of the more pure fun I had at the movies, at a movie like this. But, that said, a lot of the jokes are under the radar nods at bell hooks and second wave feminism, it's NOT a movie I could recommend to any of my boys.
