The (Non) Masked (Home) Cinema 2022 - Do Revenge

Do Revenge is my second Netflix film in one weekend. Yep delayed posts a go-go this week!

I do love a teen dark comedy film! Especially when it's free on someone else's Netflix log in. Dropping mid last month, I was a little late to the teen drama starring Camila Mendes, Maya Hawke, Austin Abrams, Rish Shah plus Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Yes SMG!

So good seeing her back on the screen.

Do Revenge is loosely inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's 1951 film, Strangers on a Train.

Receiving generally positive reviews from critics, an 84% on review sit, while Coleman Spilde of The Daily Beast called the film a "generation defining masterpiece", saying that "Once a decade, there comes a high school comedy so stylish, so witty, and so instantly influential that it cannot be topped. Netflix's colorful new romp is that movie."

Riverdale's Camila Mendes excels outside of the lame CW, finally getting some decent lines! My score below the fun AF trailer!


So Netflix have had some hits lately, The Watcher, Dahmer, The Good Nurse and now Do Revenge. This was actually a wee bit of fun, 3 stars. FUN!
