It’s a really good quirky comedy with encouraging message for anyone who like a good motivational story, Feldstein is hilariously relatable.

I loved this as a message of encouragement for girls: you can get hurt & hurt others without having it define you.

It definitely had some good parts, but it was a little too long

Wow, incredibly boring, absolutely cringe, it felt written by a 14 years old, a completely dull and unimaginative movie that was a slog...

es una divertida comedia adolescente con un trasfondo feminista, pero no es para mí

One of the worst films I’ve ever watched. Super cringy and made me want to cry all the way thorough. Don’t bother watching.

Performative feminism at its absolute peak! The pacing was good but sitting through that much internalized misogyny was hard

Very uplifting. Even though the cringe is pouring from everywhere.
