Nothing new BUT WELL EXECUTED
Girl's Revenge tells the story of Yun-Heng who travels to a new school and becomes friends with Ren Li-Chia and her other (2) friends.
Of course there is an undercover mean girl per usual for movies of this premise. Now, the premise, or should I just say plot. It is nothing new, however, it was portrayed both accurately and beautifully, nothing too fancy. It covers bullying, social media and its role in bullying, friendship, self reflection, sexual assault, and touches on gayness a bit. There is also a little romance subplot that pretty much goes nowhere when it could have, but the movie did fine without so I won't take too much points off. The use of songs are as good as it get with a movie that has recycled the bullying and assault plot. The acting isn't the greatest as the crying and interactions were a bit awkward, but it adds to the growing pains people of their age feels and captures that high school feeling well
Overall for me, it was nothing special so I give it a 7, but this is not to say it wasn't enjoyable, just your all around GOOD movie. It may bore some, but in the end, I have to recommend.
