Pretty Lethal

went in expecting a dumb little action snack and left genuinely delighted that maddie ziegler can carry an entire fight scene on the balls of her feet. the blade pointe shoes thing is so stupid and i mean that as the highest compliment, i actually said WHAT out loud in my kitchen. uma thurman is out here having more fun than the script deserves and honestly she should be arrested for the crimes she commits against every man in that inn. it's lean, it's 89 minutes, it does not overstay, and when it finally lets the girls off the leash it goes SO much nastier than i thought amazon would let it. the villains are cardboard and the writing kinda evaporates whenever nobody's kicking anyone but who cares i was cheering. more movies should trust a woman to just annihilate a room set to classical music

bones getting her big toenail ripped off with tweezers and just *laughing* because she does that to herself after practice anyway is genuinely the best thing in here and i was howling. then ten minutes later someone gets a fork in the eye played dead serious and i'm like ok so which movie are we. the blade pointe shoes in unison made me physically yell at my tv though, rewound it twice. shame uma thurman shows up does the silliest little accent and then never gets to actually fight anyone... you don't book the bride to make her stand in a doorway. fun when it's dumb, lost whenever it tries to be a real story
