It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I was so excited to get this documentary! The riot grrrl movement was and still is really close to my heart.. I loved the energy, the music, the voices of the movement - HOWEVER - this documentary was in my opinion a very poor representation of the riot grrrl movement.. It looked like it was hastily put together and I'm afraid that it wouldn't give a very good impression to people not familiar with the movement and the music; if one is familiar with the movement and music - then it's just a big disappointment. It was SHORT, disorganized, poorly executed and edited... I was expecting something far more creative, something that would really be a good visual representation of the time, the music, the feelings behind the movement... so if you wanna know more about the riot grrrl movement, I suggest not starting here. Instead, listen to the music, buy LP's and look at their album art, read up on it online - look up feminist zines..
