Bend It meets Kill Bill

As a film enthusiast, I recently watched "Polite Society," and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed with the movie. From the very first scene, the film grabbed my attention and built up to the midsection. Although there were moments when the momentum slowed down, it managed to recapture my interest in the end.

The film reminded me of a mix between "Bend It Like Beckham" and "Kill Bill" with its focus on a young woman pursuing her non-traditional dream and the women-led action scenes, albeit less violent. Despite the plot taking a backseat, the movie's main protagonist, Ria (Priya Kansara), stole my heart with her captivating performance. She managed to convey the struggles of a young woman trying to break free from societal expectations while remaining true to her culture and family.

I found Ria's relationship with her friends Clara (Seraphina Beh) and Alba (Ella Bruccoleri) to be adorable, and their banter was refreshing to hear. The film's exploration of social class differences was one of its strong points, providing a fresh and insightful take on these issues.

Overall, "Polite Society" is a sleeper hit of the summer that I would highly recommend. With its excellent cast, engaging storyline, and well-executed themes, it is a heartwarming and entertaining film that will resonate with audiences who enjoy stories of female empowerment and overcoming adversity.

Polite Society unleashes real comic fun.

If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free thoughts, please follow my blog to read my full review :)

"Polite Society looks straight out of a comic book. Endlessly energetic, witty humor, and packed with pretty great stunts. Nida Manzoor's quick edits, slow-motion, and stylistic title cards make this a distinctively fun feature debut. Not perfect, but the over-the-topness of it all brought it home for me.

If the action doesn't really impress you or if the purposefully exaggerated tone is too much to handle, then this may not be for you. But if Manzoor's maximalist style conquers your full attention, then you'll hardly leave unsatisfied."

Rating: B.
