Drive-Away Dolls (2024)

How is this a Coen Brothers film? How did they get Matt Damon and Pedro Pascal to debase themselves with cameos? Was this supposed to be a comedy? It wasn’t funny. Was it supposed to be a sexy lesbian romp? No heat or chemistry at all. A dark thriller? This flick had zero pulse. 

Total disappointment. Complete flop. 

Rating: F

Booksmart (2019)

Movie high schools never resemble anything like the high school I attended. It's almost as if they are trying to replicate the pretend high schools of cinema past.

Despite a completely unrealistic portrayal of teen education, the writing is quick, crude, and smart, so I still laughed.

Rating: C+

Lady Bird (2017)

A sharp snapshot of a semi-rebellious girl surviving her high school years. The writing is incredibly on point, as is the acting. Fabulous performances all around. So much awkwardness. 

Rating: B
