Wonderfully funny and smart
4 January 2017
What a wonderful find! I loved this flick. Perfect chick flick but with significant social message about rape, and the consequences of. OK, it's really funny but thought provoking. Three best friends Nora (Brigitte Graham), Olivia (Shelby Kocee) and Darcy (Jordan Elizabeth) are 3 lovely ladies who have the same problem, abusive men in their lives. It is told through Darcy, a single young woman who is unlucky in love. Her 2 gal pals set her up with an internet date who at first seems terrific, until after consensual sex, he then forces himself on her with rape. She goes all reclusive, her friends go and find her, the truth comes out and the girls hatch a scheme to get back at the guy by picking him up at a bar, getting him drunk and hauling his behind out to the desert to be left naked. Unfortunately, he comes to long enough to stagger around, hit his head and die. He's only the beginning. The gals one by one bump off their significant others, in cold, but funny ways. All the while cracking jokes and just making it a load of entertainment. The acting was brilliant! The story so amusing and the music right on.
