Nah breh, it would be extremely dark if they went to what men who take advantage of drunk women really do. As far as storytelling, it tells you what is happening in a subtle way.

Pretty much. All men are evil
Whenever I’ve seen a bytch drunk I don’t do anything cause that’s how your black ass gets caught up in some shyt.
Then if you don’t do anything it’s .... “MEN DONT PROTECT US”
I disagree, breh, it was just bullshyt. It could’ve been great with better writing, but nah. Too much ridiculousness. I wrote that other post during the scene where she takes the crow bar to dude’s truck after he was berating her for sleeping in the middle of the road. What a horribly executed scene. And that was just the tipping point after many other horribly executed scenes before that.
Ending was on the pinnacle of feminist fantasy bullshyt too; I truly don’t see why it’s being lauded.
Dude is the EPITOME of white privilege. He has had his privilege reinforced with beating Nina’s rape case (despite video evidence and all), yet he chooses to try to cover up the murder for no good reason at all??? He had a perfectly good avenue to beat the murder charge: The truth.
Dude has this crazy broad who just drugged all his friends attacking him in bed. He has the ripped off handcuffs corroborate his story plus the fact that no one ordered a stripper and Cassie doesn’t work for a stripper agency. No way in hell he thinks that trying to cover up the murder would be the best way to go. Even if he was scared and in shock, no way his friend wouldn’t have seen that claiming self defense was the best route.
Not on anyone’s side, but he would’ve been good if he didn’t burn the body. Clear self-defense, from the trespassing, the needle, the drug in the bottle, etc

Just watched this the other day
A great film!
It kind of reminded me of a Tarantino flim (especially with the dark comedy and revenge aspects).
Carey Mulligan gave a great performance. Her movies are almost always good.

Man I haven’t seen McLovin in a minute 
This was a fun movie. There’s this underlying dark tone that pops in and out throughout the film. Really couldn’t put my finger on what it was trying to be for majority of the watch, yet I still had fun with it. The final act was bittersweet but by far my favorite stretch of the film.
Honestly if it wasn’t for the comedic bits, this would’ve been one depressing ass watch.

I agree, although I felt like the tones shifted around quite a lot in this one.

You should be slapped across your eyebrow with a ham sandwich.
Why the fukk it gotta be ham?
And the movie was a Good Lifetime Television movie
Nothing more
I cannot believe the positive reviews this film is getting. It is absolute terrible.

It's like on one hand it wants to be a trashy 70s style rape revenge film, but it has no bite at all. These films are supposed to use violence as catharsis but there is very little violence in it, and the one murder we do see is done to the female protagonist. But on the other hand it also wants to be a smart satire and social commentary on the ways women have to deal with sexual violence and misogny. But the characterisation throughout is so shallow and unsuble that the film just comes across as witless and not nunanced enough to really say anything. Ever character is a caricature. From the douchebag business bros to Alison Brie's airhead WASP wife. These characters aren't human beings. They're cartoon characters.
But beyond anything else, the film's biggest failing, and I genuinely could not believe it when I seen it, one of the most
things I've seen in a film; in the end the film gives us a "happy" ending and vindication for Carey Mulligan and her friend by telling us everything is going to be okay because the cops are on the case! The film is contantly telling us that institutions fail women. And now we're supposed to assume that these privleged white boys are gonna get the justice they deserve through the legal system? 
Like I could not believe this is how they wrapped this shyt up. Not just a bad film but a film with some very questionable politics. I don't see how feminists could co-sign this bullshyt?
This was 100% shallow identity politics for centrists filmmaking.

Good movie but it felt like the studio had a hand in changing the ending.
