Description: Drea
(Camilla Mendes) and Eleanor (Maya Hawke) agree to go after one another’s
bullies.
Review: After a furtive encounter Drea and Eleanor join forces to go after each
other’s tormentors. “Do Revenge” is a modern take on “Strangers on a Train”, with
elements of “Mean Girls” and “Cruel Intentions”. A dark comedy with the
scariest protagonists: teenage girls.
“Do Revenge” is a typical
teen movie with a clear nod to modern audiences. The film has a bright and bold
vibe, while being a dark comedy. I like that contrast. It’s not the most
original film, but it has some fun twists.
The film is entertaining
enough and has enough surprises and progression to justify the two hours. A
film that is carried by Maya Hawke and Camilla Mendes, who are very talented and
mostly known for their series “Stranger Things” and “Riverdale”.
Reviews are mixed, but I kinda
liked it.
