Lmao nigga u stated ya opinion first. I’m not here to convince u otherwise just wondering what u disliked
I honestly just think it’s overrated. The writer tried harder to make a simple message obvious so clips could be used by the “yas queen” crowd while also being clever enough so that critics feel validated enough to rave about it. As a whole it’sa decent movie, but i know there was a better script from the other nominees like nomadland

Rape isn’t a simple message bro.....
Every male character was complete garbage, no one except maybe her dad was even remotely redeemable
And plenty of women see all men that way but it comes off as disingenuous to me if she's trying to have a legitimate discussion about gender relations
I didn’t even have a problem with that s*** because it made that twist with Bo so much more effective
I feel like niggas hate the movie cus yall feel offended? I ain’t even a dude who be capping for hoes like that but not an ounce of me was offended watching that movie or thought “damn they ain’t got no likable men in this”
Just makes the message of the movie feel like a strawman is all
I actually thought it was a pretty good movie, I loved Carey in it, I thought it was well edited, good cinematography and had nice music cues

I mean bro sometimes you gotta go that way. That’s the purpose of satires.
Like you telling me the 3rd act with the two friends crying about killing her wasn’t satirical?
The third act of Promising Young Woman was terrible but there were good things about it as a whole
It's one of those movies where I think the director fell in love with their protagonist and thought they were noble when really I didn't see them that way at all
Strange movie tbh
heard the same thing from a reviewer I trust.

Rape isn’t a simple message bro.....
I applaud the dialogue The film was trying to have about rape culture but I wasn’t entertained. That’s the bottom line of all my complainants. I saw Black Messiah right after PYW and realized you can make an entertaining movie, an educational film, and an artistic film all in one and under 2 hours
the last non white woman to win best actress was halle berry in 2001
the last non white man to win best actor was forest whitaker in 2006

I know the writer hates the ending because the producers forced her to tack it on but I liked it

Yeah Judas is better IMO too. But if the whole “this makes men look bad” isn’t your argument and u just disliked it just from a movie stand point, I can respect that.

damn
Man this was the dumbest oscars in recent memory... terrible lineup, almost no drama around who would win best picture, they didn't play clips, they didn't end on best picture for some dumb reason, final moment is the winner not being there.

She does? I know it wasn’t the original ending but she wrote something she hates?

It depends on who you're trying to reach IMO
If you're speaking to other women then I think it's an effective device because it's shorthand for things they already know
If you're trying to get the male portion of your audience to see your perspective and think differently about an important issue then maybe not
Either way I don't think it's a bad movie at all just a flawed one

Bro when she makes Allison Brie think she was raped for weeks just to prove a point I was like
She does? I know it wasn’t the original ending but she wrote something she hates?
The point of ending the film before the big text reveal was to show that women really don’t receive justice in the world but the producers said that was too dark to turn a profit.

But thing is a lot of the movie wasn’t even the main character “seeking revenge on men”.....2 of the ppl on her hit list was females. So to me the film showcased how woman are scummy too

i'm assuming the characters are supposed to be over stylized seems dumb to get offended over douchy male characters

Oh so she was just gonna end it wit ol girl dying?
