There’s a few versions of the poster for this film. I chose the one without a gun. Bang bang.
The films tagline is Revenge gets ripped. I don’t think this is a revenge movie. Not in the vein of the current genre of revenge flicks anyway.
I’d say this a romantic drama about two young women, one a body builder the other a gym manager who meet, hook up and fall in love.
But then shit gets real and violent consequences happen. It’s set in the 80s for some reason, in New Mexico I think. There’s some cool audio production, a few laughs and even some fantastical elements.
Some stuff might have gone over the top of my head. News coverage of the fall of the Berlin Wall on the tele in one or two scenes didn’t seem to connect with anything other than the time setting. A tape recording of the ills of smoking and nicotine hint at something more than the fact that the main character struggles with quitting. Who knows, not me right now.
Check it out if you can. Screening in cinemas across oz.
