Review of Whip It

Whip It (2009)
7/10
I like smart girls. That's why I married your mama. Well, that and I knocked her up.

The first thing I noticed that peaked my interest, aside from the title and the subject matter, was the cast and director.

I love Drew Barrymore, and she was not only in this film, but the film's director. This definite means my time will not be wasted.

Aside from Barrymore, we have Ellen Page, Kristen Wiig, Juliette Lewis, and Zoe Bell. There is also Marcia Gay Harden, who might give us another great bible quoting character like she did in The Mist.

It was way too predictable, but that didn't take too much away from the enjoyment. Page was great, as was Wiig and Lewis. Harden played a great role, as did Daniel Stern as her father, Earl. Alia Shawkat is one I want to see more of.

An enjoyable end to the week.
