I really enjoyed that movie, which bases (very loosely) its premises on the plot of 'Strangers on a train' (check at 00:11:54 what Eleanor is reading). I don't exactly get why it's classified as a comedy, if it's one it is more of a dark one, and none of the main protagonists are truly innocent. In support roles there is also Sarah Michele Gellar, the 'Headmaster' lines in a deadpan way, that's really nice, and Sophie Turner has a very small part, that is really good too :)

One of the characters sums up the plot perfectly at some point : "Listen, was all this a little crazy ? Sure. But I'm a teenage girl, we're psychopaths"

Also a big thumb up to Alana Morshead who designed the colorful costumes an to the whole make-up department (who conveys the character evolution though creative, if subtle, make ups (the eyeliner on Camilla Mendes character when she goes batshit crazy for example).

The feel good ending was a little disappointing, but in line with the comedic orientation of the movie (it could very well have ended in gore with very little effort :))

All in all it was a good watch and those 2 hours were well spent :)

"Do Revenge works best when Camila Mendes and Maya Hawke are at the center of the screen, delivering scene-stealing performances with their charming chemistry and witty interactions.

A satire with (too?) many twists on the high-school drama - minor nitpick, but the cast is way too old to portray teenagers - that manages to reach surprisingly efficient entertainment levels during practically the entire runtime. Even so, some over-the-top narrative embellishments and the screenplay's predictability contain the film within the usual formulas, despite the colorful aesthetics deserving a lot of praise.

Solid effort."

Rating: B-
