Review of “Do Revenge”: A unique take on a classic ride

Now Eleanor, who comes to Rosehill to confront the agonising memories of her first infatuation exposing her in public, is presented to us. Eleanor is described as being “awkward” yet brave.

Movie is more about coming of rage

Teenage females are psychopaths, Eleanor (Maya Hawke) says in the movie Do Revenge. Many directors have succumbed to this throughout the years by producing high school movies that are more about “coming of rage” than about growing up.

The shows Riverdale and 13 Reasons Why provide as examples of how topics like bullying, exclusion, and stereotyping may lead to disobedience, outbursts, and occasionally even murder. Not much has changed in the newest high school drama on Netflix, Do Revenge.

Despite Alfred Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train clearly having a big influence, all the criteria are checked—aside from the murder one. This movie is sort of like Strangers on a Train meets Mean Girls meets John Tucker Must Die, yet despite its confusing plot, it never forgets to have fun.

Drea loses her social standing

Rosehill Country Day, a typical American high school, is led by Drea Torres (Camila Mendes), who is known as the Queen Bee. She is the leader of her clique, dating Max (Austin Abrams), and is all a girl could ever aspire to be—until she isn’t. Drea loses her social standing after Max releases one of her personal videos and the school doesn’t discipline him.

At this moment, Eleanor, who comes to Rosehill to confront the agonising memories of her first infatuation exposing her in public, is introduced to us as the “awkward” yet brave Eleanor. At this moment, Drea and Eleanor decide to stage a Rosehill version of Strangers on a Train, which is when Hitchcock enters the picture. The girls determining their priorities makes you think of movies like Mean Girls and Clueless if taking down Max is straight out of John Tucker Must Die.

Despite the film’s primary goal is illuminating the psyches of modern high school students, filmmaker Kaitlyn does a commendable job of maintaining a positive tone while revelling in and occasionally mocking genre conventions.

Labels related to sexuality can be used to justify heinous behaviour, as is shown. We can observe that this world places a high value on optics. Obviously rich and skilled players, these kids are. It’s amusing to see the creators make fun of the fact that “wokeness” is frequently seen as a joke.

The subplot about how patriarchy overcompensates with performative wokeness when challenged, for instance, is a fantastic layer. It is intentional for the movie to never go too far. Despite the unoriginal theme, there are moments of creativity that are accompanied by outstanding performances and high production quality. Let’s just refer to it as your standard Netflix movie and be happy that there aren’t many issues.
