not funny enough. alot of what makes mean girls work is tina fey's writing and this movie just lacks jokes. i don't think it was successful in building upon previous teen comedies of the 00's, as it was overtly trying to.
I think a mean girl type with fake PC, shit queers could have been great. But when you strip away the parallels and references to mean girls, clueless, cruel intentions.. there's really not much here. the lighting and cinematography…
the set design was amazing. the performances were incredible, even the characters who showed up in a single scene were perfect. honestly couldn't figure out the plot until halfway through but as it kept building and the world kept revealing itself i found it exponentially engaging.
I liked how the movie was riddled with "technology" that only brings a hinderence to life. I also loved how it explored fantasy and freedom being a state of mind under a rigid and oppressive system. wish more men had an inner fantasy of flying around in a flamboyant silver angel winged suit over ya know.. step sister transgender bukkake.
Truly a cinematic marvel when it comes to special effects and it is an inexipicibly entertaining.

The issues with this movie lay within the characters, Jack's misogyny is gross and I hate how easily Ann is written to eat it up. He give her the 'you're not like other girls' and bam they in love. It was pathetic but the character's and development of them aren't why this movie is significant. The writing of them is just significantly bad;…
