Great, fun Roller Derby Movie! July 16, 2010 Mauibluecat (California) This is a really fun movie with a lot of good messages in it! The writing in it is excellent! It's very entertaining!
I remember being a child and watching Roller Derby in the late 70's and loving it! So, this movie really brought those memories back!
Juliette Lewis is hot as ever! And Kristen Whigg is very good in it also!
Auspicious Directorial Debut For Drew Barrymore July 16, 2010 David Baldwin (Philadelphia,PA USA) Years ago a co-worker of mine tried to explain the rules and arcana of roller derby. After her explanation and seeing this film and "Kansas City Bomber" with Raquel Welch I still don't understand the "sport". That said, I still loved this movie. Fledgling filmmaker Drew Barrymore makes your confusion irrelevant because "Whip It" is so imbued with high-spiritedness and fun. One could nitpick and say there are moments in the film that are cutesy and self-consciously cool. That can be dismissed as rookie errors but on the whole Barrymore displays enough assuredness behind the lens that I look forward to her future efforts. Ellen Page's star continues to rise here as the reluctant smalltown beauty queen turned enthusiastic derby star. In her young career Page has made some terrific choices eschewing more commercial vehicles and going for offbeat parts that fit her personality to a tee. This film didn't get much play on initial release but deserves to be discovered.
Cute movie June 16, 2010 Crystal Hurlburt This movie was such a cute movie. It makes you remember being a teenager again. This movie shows how a young girl discovers herself and develops confidence. This movie also shows how adults, and teens come together to an understanding. That is what I liked behind the hidden meaning of this movie.
