Tried to be something like promising young woman...but it just didn't land. Waaaaay too aggressive with the message they were trying to portray. Great acting in moments though!!

As a contributor to female education around the world & other human rights issues I found this vigilante movie to be dishonest. Very stereotypical generalizations that are seriously misleading if not plain wrong. We have mostly Black female vigilantes fighting back at white males who are shown as female subjugators, rapists, female genocide perpetrators, and police (all white) as rights' abusers. Black males were shown as female rights' protectors. White male quote while firing his gun at target: "Every species on the planet does it. The male exerts dominance over the female." White males form a MFM (Men's First Movement) organization to "fight" for control. Cheaply made production dominated by numerous & pointless scene disrupting photo flashing montages.

When a movie that deals with current, critical and provocative issues is beat down this badly in the reviews, I feel like I've got to give it an honest shot myself... It's really unfortunate that movies like this get downvoted just for the sake of pushback to an idea that doesn't conform with your own world views, as myopic as they may be. This 'what if...' scenario shows a group of women who have reached the end of their rope watching a continuous cycle of abuse towards women on many levels decide to take matters into their own hands, in a vigilante style. There's nothing wrong with the premise... of course, the delivery is exaggerated in many regards but, as a piece of art (film being the medium), it's a solid movie that certainly doesn't deserve as low a rating as it's received so far. If anything, it's an above average production with heart, even if not for everyone. The pendulum that has swung in favour of a particular swathe of society for many generations is challenged here in specific ways and swings the pendulum the opposite direction. Again, nothing wrong with that. In order to find balance in anything, expect agitation... I may not agree wholeheartedly with the extremes of cancel culture and all that comes with it, BUT on the path to solution, one must first come to terms with UNDERSTANDING. And that's what this film asks... for those who haven't looked or haven't cared to look, to try to understand the constant frustration and helplessness that many women live with on a daily basis and the simple joys that some will find in celebrating counter-culture just to feel safe and accepted after many a horrible fact. The movie is even more pointed given the recent circumstances that actor Ezra Miller has found himself in. It's certainly worth a look and, as is the nature of art, if it makes you feel something... anything, whether good or bad, it has served a purpose... whether it plants a seed, stirs conversation, or even just makes you take a step back and question past, present or future actions. This is a rock-solid 7/10 all-day, everyday.

This movie popped up on my Instagram feed and I wanted to check it out. Kiersey Clemons, Vanessa Hudgens, Alexandra Shipp, Ezra Miller. This was a stellar cast in my book, so for that I wanted to see what it was about. It was good intent, good actors, and I loved the messaged. I'm a believer of vengeance and this movie is perfect for that. Not really a good idea to do what these ladies did but it may help if you watch them do it (Very Batman) Its delivery does not click like I should. All the actors give a good performance but it's not coming together. It gets to a point where I start to lose interest. But I still liked it.

So many unessesary scene...... just to fill the duration.... The idea was good,but the execution really baad...! Ouwgh.... MFM ! (Man F..k Man)! ............................................................. .....no more (hardly) to say...

The movie turned out good but then towards the middle to the end went off. Especially when all the sudden Joey starts trying to be the boss punching her friends. And everyone else seems to be OK with it instead of kicking her out.

Right, well the cover for this 2021 thriller from writer and director Eamon O'Rourke is what lured me into watching it. Had I heard about "Asking for It" prior to watching it? No. So I wasn't sure what I was in for here, but the cover was interesting and thus I opted to watch it. And you can't judge a movie by its cover. While "Asking for It" is labeled as a thriller, this was more of a female-empowered revenge movie. Not much of a thriller, and this is where writer and director Eamon O'Rourke lost me along the way. I was expecting a rather different type of movie, and was instead served a cold dish of movie that didn't fall into my flavor. The storyline in "Asking for It" was a swing and a miss in terms of providing me with any sense of entertainment or enjoyment. It was a mixture and combination of slow narrative and lack of anything interesting that killed off the movie for me, so it never really had a snowballs chance in Hell. And this is certainly not a movie that I would recommend anyone run out and waste their money, time or effort on. I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Asking for It", and that is usually something I like when I watch movies. But since the cast virtually had nothing worthwhile or interesting to work with here in terms of script, characters, dialogue or action, then the movie was just a dud. I am sure that the acting performances were fair enough, I just didn't have an interest in it. Sadly, then the movie's cover was the most exciting and interesting thing about this entire ordeal. My rating of the 2021 movie "Asking for It" lands on a two out of ten stars.

It was bad directing, and bad writing but it might be good if there was sone adjustments it can be typical for women rights. What I liked about it that bring to the view there is men against abuse women.

I've seen many movies similar to this - the biggest and most popular recent one being Promising Young Woman - that have invoked the modern day revamp of rape-revenge flicks. Sometimes focusing on teenagers, Sometimes young women. The film uses plot points from the ABC series Dietland, the more lighthearted feminist queer comedy Itty Bitty Titty Commitee and the heightened world of PYW. And have made an unoriginal, piss-poor attempt at creating something interesting and thought-provoking. The characters here are wafer thin cardboard cutouts and box checkers designed to make you feel sympathy for them, cheer for them or at the least find them charming and inspirational. That promise is not delivered. Mark Vanderhill whines about women and minorities being "superstars by default" Sadly, that's exactly whom you're supposed to root for. POC protagonists who should indeed bring an interesting depth, yet are thinly layered, along with the main antagonists. It basically boils down to: men are bad, toxic assholes and the women are traumatised angry victims who resort to violence and intimidation. What's upsetting is that these things are really happening to women all over the world. To see these complex issues watered down yet again is disappointing. It's no good to just shut down sexist behaviour as soon as you see it. There has to be an exploration as to why these men are the way they and try to prevent it in future.
