    everyone was dogging on this one but this was fun? it was a fever dream
    i was invested

    * cinematography was very cool
    * only 2 of the songs hit for me
    * always will be wild that transness must be dumbed down as mtf or ftm for cis people to  begin to conceptualize one aspect for some people. 
    * ended the movie with a discussion on how this movie shouldn’t be representative of transness or of mexican culture, but inevitably american and western viewers will see it as such
    * i have other thoughts, but my phone is at 2%

    hmmmm 
    the three part ken montage saved it;

    class-a actors, yet it paid more attention to aesthetic than content? or at least hamfistedly delivered their message. 
    baby, we know women have impossible roles to play. 😭 perhaps it’s target audience was supposed to be unrealized feminists? idk

    also lmao @ mattel calling itself out for profiting, then profiting from the movie and advertising 👺🔪

    overall, a very cute movie; but was too hyped up for what it presented. ):

    Exciting, fun, and lovely introspection of the main cast of characters. I love a good movie about cats, and the fact that they gave us hope for a new installment of Shrek at the end made it that much better. (:
