Boring

The movie is kind of dull in spit of its efforts to take a feministic stand. It's not inspiring in any way, and it doesn’t feel very inspired either. I was looking forward to seeing it but got pretty disappointed. Read and rate it

Pointless

I was hoping for a movie about strong women, sisterhood and acceptance, but instead I'm not really sure what I got. The piece doesn’t really hold itself together, as if it was not well directed or edited. Read and rate it
