This week for the Movie Monday feature, I am reviewing the comedic drama film, Moxie. This movie was released in 2021 and has a running time of 1 hour & 51 minutes. This film is rated PG-13 for the following reasons: mild sex & nudity, mild profanity, and mild alcohol/drugs/smoking. Starring in this movie are Hadley Robinson, Lauren Tsai, and Alycia Pascual-Pena. The following plot overview is provided from the IMBD page: Inspired by her mom’s rebellious past and a confident new friend, a shy 16-year-old publishes an anonymous zine calling out sexism at her school.
I loved this film so much that I immediately had my daughter watch it with me after finishing it. The music choices throughout the film were perfect for the tone and message. I was so happy that there was a discussion of intersectionality within the film. I feel like this is an important discussion for everyone to be having about people’s lived experiences. Claudia is probably the character I related most to although you could sprinkle in a bit of the other girls as well. Mitchell is trash and I know far too many boys that are like Mitchell even today. Please watch this amazing film that has such a meaningful message behind it.
I give this film 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Tomorrow for the TV Tuesday feature, I am reviewing the comedic drama series, Julie & the Phantoms. Next week for the Movie Monday feature, I am reviewing the comedy film, Coming 2 America. Until then keep consuming the cinema; Nerd out!
