Good movie
I get frustrated that people call this woke. This is not woke. This is a legit message that could needs to get out there more. I honestly think it is the same message that movies like Heathers and Pump up the volume were pushing way back in the 80s.
Basically meek and obedient student Vivian just wants to keep her head down and get through high school with her introvert friend Claudia. That is until a new girl comes to the school, Lucy, who offers a different perspective and Vivian finds out about her mom's past as a rebel. Suddenly Vivian is noticing all the little problems at her school and suddenly she can't tolerate them anymore. Vivian speaks out with a newsletter type thing placed in all the bathrooms pointing the problems out under the name of Moxie. Everyone starts to see it now.
Ultimately this is a woman rights movie but you could argue it is a bad behavior movie. We are just done with letting bad behavior go it is about time schools and boards got with program. - mim_nawee - 25 December 2022

Go get it our Rebel Girls ! This movie is so impressive and impactful. The production of this movie is amazing (tones , shades , lights and shadows all of them are great) Vivian the mc, at the first time she didn't understand about feminism and told the new girls to keep her head down but after she understood the problems. She trying to against the problem and help everyone to get through it. Also , I really loves the details of this movie. When Vivian put the moxie's sheets into the restroom , I don't understand why she needs to put one on the sink but after that I saw the paralyzed girl , I definitely got it. I saw the empathy and equality in the actions she done and that's make me so happy about it. BTW Claudia (Vivian's Bff) is so fine.
