The Problem with Do Revenge

[@eleesiasportraits6114]

That end monologue by the ex-bf was wild. It was so out of left field! It seems like they wanted to just make him a normal super douche guy... then they thought an unhinged monologue was a more interesting direction. It felt like they couldn't think of a legit reason for him to leak her recording, so they just went with 'turns out, he was nuts the whole time!'

[@TheBlushBunny]

This.

[@jussieb7244]

I agree. It was already proven that he was already a piece of crap based on the fact that he organized that CIS group just to humiliate Drea and date her best friend right after their breakup.

[@kendallkw]

idk why they didnt just have eleanor have hacked into his phone and dropped dreas vid, it literally was foreshadowed and revealed that she was super good w computers and could do rlly advanced stuff w them. imo woulda rlly added to the twist and the ending woulda been better w eleanor and drea both being horrible ppl

I predicted that Drea was the one who had outed Eleanor, not Carissa, yet I was STILL taken aback by the twist. Eleanor's frustrated scream over Drea not remembering her might be a clue, though.

Mmmm…. I didn’t even pick up on the scream being for that. Nice observation.

[@trinaq]

This was an enjoyably crazy movie, though I agree with your point about all of these "teens" looking WAY too old. Camila has even stated that now that she's 28 years old, she's trying to pursue more adult roles, not wanting to be typecast as a teenager forever.

I hate the high school setting with older actors, just like you I can’t help but wonder why they’re afraid of a college setting. The age range is a lot more diverse.

[@TheBlushBunny]

Way better choice in these cases. When I was a freshman I literally had friends in their 40s.

[@Breyerlover4ever23]

Exactly! You can make the whole thing so much more believable by making it set in college without having to change anything fundamental to the story. It's such an easy change! I don't understand why they don't do it.

[@hxpewxrld]

I saw a comment awhile back from someone who worked in the industry who said that most writers believe highschool is more relatable to a wider audience as almost everyone has been to, will go to, or is in highschool but not everyone goes to college. I still think it would be better to have more settings in college but it's an explanation for sure. Plus in this case this movie was an ode to the old school teen movies so college wouldn't make much sense here.

[@Breyerlover4ever23]

@@hxpewxrld makes sense, but if that's their reasoning then they should cast younger actors. I get it, they want these celebrities to bring in cash but there are so many actors who are both famous AND appear to be highschool age. For example, you could've gotten Olivia Rodrigo and it would've been so much more believable for her to play the lead than someone in their late twenties. Love Camila, but she's just not the right choice for a high school role

[@Sthuthukile]

What would have really pushed it over the edge is if they made the conclusion much darker...I kept expecting some blood to be spilled, or if Max ended up in an intensive care unit and unable to speak. It would've made an excellent contrast to the colorful and pristine cinematography. But it still has cult classic potential, similar to Jennifer's Body or Carrie.

[@lediipedii02]

This type of ending would've guaranteed it as a modern teen flick or whatever they call teen movies lol

[@tola3979]

the only thing that really annoyed me was how quickly they made up after drea did the "nosy nora" thing like realistically that wouldnt happen, and you could kinda tell it was something they needed to happen so max could be the big bad but it just felt a bit undeserved, from both sides tbh

[@yippiepieyay]

thank you blush bunny! and YES. the final act was kinda anticlimactic. max's intentions/monologue didn't really make sense, and it's weird how drea's old friends immediately just turned on him like... weren't you guys just all over him ten minutes ago? it just didn't make sense especially since they genuinely stuck to max's side despite the drea issue. still entertaining tho. but i see this more as a film i'd watch on a bad day when i only have two functioning brain cells lol

I honestly really, really loved this movie. The surprise got me I loved Eleanor and Drea's relationship dynamic.

I am very used to grown adults playing teenagers, so it didn't really phase me 😂

i really loved this movie. to me it's the kind of movie you have to close your mind for a second just to watch it, because after you open your mind, you realize drea drugged everyone and didn't have any consequences, and the whole movie is her saying "blah blah blah student of color" sure there are some fails but it's such an entertaining movie and the plot twist is AMAZING

[@dazey8706]

i think it was meant to be post ironic when she said that stuff considering she gets cut off while saying it lol

[@w4ldoooo]

@@dazey8706 yea that's understandable but when they were talking about carissa being arrested she said something like "that rich white girl won't be arrested" or something, so i guess they missed the opportunity to make a conflict involving this mind set, because after all drea is not white🦃

[@dazey8706]

i mean, i think it did when drea learns shes not just an underdog trying to fit in, shes really fucked up mean, it really undermines her whole “i am a poc struggling” thing, yk yk, i can see why that may not be as strong or obvious enough point as youd maybe like it to be, but considering the literally insane and illegal things the main characters did to each other for the sake of revenge, to then forgive each other and have a happy ending driving away into the sunset or whatevrr , this movie is obv more preoccupied with having fun than making points about “the socio political and economic state of the world” -jaden smith, 2022 💀

[@Sarah-cg9un]

Also, the fact that the leak wasn't investigated? I think she was most likely 17, so that's a crime and a student was accusing another student, so it should have been investigated either way. I think if they showed that investigation and been like oh it was sent from an IP in another state or something that would have proved he didn't do it, it would have been easier to show that she really believes he did it and provide an excuse for her friends to drop her. I think that could have added a layer of obsession with revenge where she KNOWS he still had something to do with it but no one is on her side.

[@mimyeko894]

Tbh i thought it was somewhat realistic but oh god it is horrendeous to do that to someone

[@kairos-049]

I think the main problem with Max is that his role is just patriarchy personified. He serves as a source of conflict that highlights all the hurdles Drea has to overcome because she's not a rich, white man. But those are systemic issues within the culture of the school and society at large, and while Max represents them, it's harder to write a clear cut motivation for why he wants to destroy Drea instead of just casting her aside.

[@sahie]

You know what Do Revenge reminds me of? Cruel Intentions and Wild Things. I’d love to see you do Wild Things. I love that at any given point in the movie, you THINK you know what’s going on. With every “reveal”, you’re sure you’ve got it figured out…then there’s a freaking plot twist at the VERY last moment. You need to watch the entire thing until fade to black. 🙊

One thing that got on my nerves was how the leaked video was immediately and continuously referred to as “Max being assaulted” and nobody questions that at all? Even Drea? If he was in the video I can see how he could try to spin it, but it literally made zero sense. All of them are portrayed as being super woke and calling out other problematic behaviour (or more just pointing it out kind of for comedic purposes? Which just came off as cringe) but this was a serious topic that was made to feel light hearted and like whatevs. I didn’t expect a whole deep dive into it due to the comedic tone of the film. But Eleanor being labeled a predator at 13 ruined her whole life and was like the main reason she wanted revenge. But Drea’s entire solo shmex tape was leaked and nobody seems to care or asks if she’s ok?? IT MADE NO SENSE.

[@hillofbeans8643]

[@cr3at0n72]

It always makes me uncomfortable how old the actors are. It really distracts me when they expect me to relate to the characters in highschool when they look 30. Like for example, this movie, the kissing booth, never have I ever. And also they somehow always make the characters super mature with no actual levels to their personality, they always have something like "the mean one" or "the funny one" with only one personality type.

[@julitalks]

exactlyyyy, the cast is beautiful but if you wanna cast adult actors in a teen role at least choose someone in their very early 20s rather than making the two lead actors nearing 30

[@Ro.Gue.Ish.]

This film most definitely was an homage to the mid/late 90s and early 00s teen movies. Movie was fun to watch.

[@grlegrl]

I don’t know if it’s because I’m old, but I saw that twist coming. I thought “Maybe….” when they were talking in the car and then I know FOR SURE when Drea was talking about how easy it is to trick a narcissist and home girl was looking at her like “Yo really don’t see it so you”

[@TheBlushBunny]

[@FairyBogFather]

they could have set this movie in college so easilyyy

[@Kayla-rs6wr]

I wholeheartedly agree with your take. I actually had SUCH a fun time watching Do Revenge, and the production (like you said) almost makes me forget the small but substantial gripes I have with the film… almost. There’s nothing inherently wrong or bad about the film-besides the totally unbelievable casting, but that’s most teen dramas these days. I just think that some aspects of the writing were lazy. Eleanor’s two-timing revenge plot was absolute genius, but other than her and Drea, a lot of the side characters felt one-note and unnecessary. I wish Drea’s bestie had more of a role in the film other than “pretend bestie who turns on you and then comes crawling back when you’ve hit rock bottom.” I wish we got to spend more time with Max’s sister. The other two girls and the other guy in the inner circle had no purpose to exist other than to fill a numerical quota. Not all characters can be fleshed out when your story has a lot going on, but then why not just cut characters out of the story unless they have an affect on it? Or combine different characters into one so they have a larger and more complex presence and motivation? Ultimately the people writing, producing, and casting these teen shows and movies have a deep misunderstanding of how teenagers actually behave and talk and dress and interact with each other and the world.

[@crisislockwood3886]

honestly, as a teen, the only thing i feel that it didn’t exactly get was the way we dress, and that’s mainly because we’re too broke. when they were talking, i could honestly picture me or my friends saying something like that

I didn't have a huge problem with the actors' age in this movie,but I had your same reaction when,watching"The Wilds",I was supposed to be grossed out by Jeff because he was dating an underage girl...I'm sorry,but..Sarah Pidgeon was 24 during the 1st season *and she doesn't look 16 AT ALL!* If Jeff thought she was an adult I COULDN'T HONESTLY BLAME HIM!!!:-PP It would have been different if he was dating Toni,who is short,has big manga eyes and dresses like a Tomboy which helps to make her look younger...but Leah???I'm sorry,I can't buy her as a teen and I don't see why Jeff should.(I mean..ok..she was going at highschool,but...have you ever heared of being flunked?) #RenewTheWilds #SaveTheWilds #FreeTheWilds 08:12 - 08:34 In Italian it's"messa in scena".😁 09:35 - 09:55 I agree,but I'm still counting this movie as 1 of the"Mean Girls"movies I'm collecting for each decade from the '08s. '80s Heathers '90s Jawbreaker '00s Mean Girls '10s Scream Queens '20s Do Revenge Unfortunately I couldn't find any for the '10s so I have to settle with a TV show for now...let me know if there's any _movie_ from the 2010s that can fill the blank.

Please consider doing a review of _Labor Pains_ (2009) which is Lindsay Lohan's most overlooked romcom. It also includes Tracee Elis Ross, Luke Kirby, Chris Parnell, Bridgit Mendler in it who were all lesser-known actors at the time. Lindsay's comeback film _Falling for Christmas_ (2022) comes out next month on Netflix. Her last film role was in _Among the Shadows_ (2019) which was shot in November 2015, and she was in a short film _Till Human Voices Wake Us_ in 2015. She was in Season-2 of _Sick Note_ in early 2018 which stars Rupert Grint and Nick Frost. _Falling for Christmas_ was filmed between November-December 2021. So it's been almost 4 years since she last acted, exactly 6 years since she last acted in a movie, and over 13 years since the release of her last romcom in 2009.

Eleanor Being outed by Drea, the video of Drea going around were their reasons for revenge... Yet it felt like they glossed over that. And the charachters all just felt like they were litterally crazy. The best crazy charachters are the ones you can understand at some level. This just fel so out of touch. Maybe it's because it's a teen movie, but they dealt with more heavy topics and managed to turn them into "teen drama". I didn't like it at all. It felt off. Now, I didn't watch a lot of the teen classics as kid, I watched Mean girls, clueless, legally blonde, etc... When I was maybe 17-18.

I also can’t unseen Uma now that you called it out, Lol! I kinda clocked the twist before it was revealed, but that didn’t make it any less satisfying. I will say the unhinged final quarter of the movie felt a bit anticlimactic to me. And I’m low key, no I’m high key over the toxic YT girl avoiding accountability or consequences for their problematic, or in this case criminal behavior. Drea touched on the racial biased implications, but they didn’t push that envelope nearly enough! Watching Nora get to kick her feet up & ride off into the sunny abyss of her future seemingly without repercussions, was triggering. It’s a tired arch, but we were almost there!

Like they broke up over it, and there was no real character development shown on her behalf that she’d learned from that, and that she’s just as bad as her ex in that regard I cringed a few times at some of the things they said, and I had to remind myself that it could be considered funny because it’s sort of a modern way of how the main heather speaks in the movie heathers, but I feel like just the fact that I had to remind myself that was icky in of itself, and the funny thing about some of heather’s sayings (e.g “fuck me gently with a chainsaw”) was that it was original writing for the movie and so out of left field that it was funny I think it definitely did have some memorable parts, and the actress for drea’s (I can’t remember her name😭) comedic timing is great.

They should have just casted "Drea" to be a dark skin black girl bc they way her dialog was set up makes no sense. Constantly referring herself as a "poc" (Latinos have never called themselves that up until hearing blck ppl do it just recently 🙄) and acting like she's "so poor" even though she's being dressed up in Versace outfits 😂

[@whyisthisdifferentnow]

Thank you! I was so sick of her pulling the POC card. Especially since some (a lot) of Latinos use their White looking features to their advantage. Something dark skinned people, especially Black women, can’t do.

LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!

I thought you were going stranger things until i read the title😭

I’ve only watched the first 2 seasons of stranger things lol I didn’t even make it to see Maya Hawke

@@TheBlushBunny i mean she makes everything 10 times better so dont forget to keep on watching

[@katherineg8126]

what is the context behind the intro? whats that audio from and why does she use it?

[@TheBlushBunny]

It’s a clip of Harry Styles randomly singing in an interview, I used it once and the blush bunnies said they liked it so… here we are. Lol

@@TheBlushBunny ohhhh okay! love the channel 💕

[@felienmusic]

I really enjoyed this movie, but the writing was bad I thought… the twist was SUPER cool, but like you said, the substance just isn’t there. Example: the girl Eleanor is interested in is “mad” because El is mad at Drea and doesn’t believe Max leaked the video. “You know he did” she says, as his sister. EXCUSE ME if you know that, fucking turn him in to the police?! It was such a cliche like ‘they have to fight before everything is okay again’. The reason to fight was bad, and the fighting didn’t even have a payoff… There were multiple examples like this in the movie. Questions why people acted the way the acted. Mean girls does this better imo. Still a fun movie tho!

I feel like this movie was enjoyable, but I honestly don't get the hype it got , idk maybe my hopes were too high lol.

[@sur_un_nuage]

the instagram witch especially looks old now i’m not high school age either i’m somewhere near the same age, bit older, bit younger than some of the actors but everyone looks older than me

the movie was meant to be crazy and unhinged

Love your videos 🥰🥰🥰 you’re so charming and funny

[@TheBlushBunny]

Thanks love 💕

[@crystalcastillo7575]

And idk I see people calling this movie iconic but I just ... don’t see it. Like I feel like this movie has replay ability factor. Like now that we know the twist, what’s the point of watching it again. Idk maybe that’s just me 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@pietrooliveira2096]

the age thing for me i saw no problem with that when i saw the movie bc people in my school's high school actually look like that

[@lukesguywalker]

I agree that there's a clear love for the classics in this film, but it's more like ... junk food.

You’ve obviously never seen jawbreakers. Call many Tinga classic chefs kiss 😘or strangers on a train (they even referenced it in the movie, she’s reading the book)

[@Sophie_Pea]

I’ve seen jawbreakers and there were still parts of this I didn’t enjoy lol. If you wanna do an homage/maybe satire that’s fine, but do a good job of it. Even in jawbreaker they didn’t end up being friends in the end because of all of the stuff that happened. Drea literally got ran over by a car and they still ended up as besties. It didn’t make sense. Also drea just randomly bullying Eleanor about her nose at the party and then them just forgetting about it a second later, it just seemed off. It definitely had its good parts, but I wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s comparable to jawbreaker

[@kawaii801]

The blush bunny 🐰 I fell the same way u feel some some them

[@anamazar8622]

I didn’t like the film. It was 45 minutes too long. I lovvve Maya Hawk so I watched it even tho it took me 3 days.

[@ramblingrue]

The main actor does not look teen AT ALL

[@anisah2066]

I don't really care about the age but I agree it should've been a college setting not high school. I just think the film was so bad and none of the characters were interesting and the dialogue was shitty. I'm still wondering how tf this movie got made. And I hate how the director of the film tries to act like omg she's so woke for having a latina lead when the casting of the film has the exact amount of diversity of any 90s movie and still the only 2 black characters get sidelined with no real characteristics or effect on the plot. Its a joke. Could've been a great movie and I know its only Netflix but even by Netflix standards its pretty bad. The strongest part of the film was the visuals, even the music wasn't great. Apart from the Olivia Rodrigo opening titles...
