I WATCHED THIS MOVIE FOR MY 2025 MOVIE CHALLENGE.
WEEK 41: A FILM WITH CHLOE GRACE MORETZ
Review: Cameron Post if a teenage girl in 1993, who is gay. She lost her parents
at a very young age and is now living with her aunt. Who is very conservative.
When she finds out about Cameron’s love for women, she is sent to a conversion
therapy center.
The film is well-made and
compelling, but can sometimes drag a little bit. The emphasis is on the harmful
effect on homophobia on young people and this is done very well.
The people are all portrayed
in a very believable way, especially the adults who try to help, albeit in the
wrong way. The cast is strong, but the chemistry between the three main actors,
Chloe Grace Moretz, Sasha Lane and Forrest Goodluck, is lacking. Their individual
scenes are more powerful than the ones they have together. With that, the
characters are a bit bland.
The theme of the film is
strong and hits, but the characters lack chemistry and depth, which is somewhat
essential in a movie like this. Because it’s a more character driven story.
Rating: 3/
