my rating: Ninety-six pounds of moxie on eight wheels.

what possessed me: On the plane to Hong Kong, I was choosing between this and New Moon, and decided that I’d prefer to see those few brief moments of Dakota on a screen larger than a headrest.

what i learned: I think I would have totally loved this movie if they had sent the script to the doctor for a couple extra doses of funny. Or maybe if they just let Kristen Wiig, Eve and Zoe Bell do their respective things a bit more. Still, it’s a good time, albeit a little too safe and by-the-numbers for Gertie‘s directorial debut.

you may also enjoy: Stick It, Bring It On, Battle Athletes and youthful indiscretion.

tangential thought: I think Ellen Page picked this movie over Drag Me To Hell, which seems to me like a questionable call.
