Review of Moxie (2021) by Wheeelertron — 10 Mar 2021
As good as the female-led punk soundtrack is to this film the film itself seems totally un-punk in it's reality, and as fun as it was I am disappointed with what Poehler achieved with this project IT'S JUST ALL TOO EASY TO SHOOT THIS FILM DOWN and while I can see it resonating with a young audience the knowing self-aware humor will be the only thing, along with the music, that adults will take from this, it's not good, and it paints a picture of a surreal and slightly messed-up world where characters you don't like are so obviously two-dimensional you question what they are doing, not to mention all the teenagers marching around confidently like young adults, while the adults behave like children and a convincing allegation of rape is trivialised as a spring-board to the next exciting moment in the story.
