Netflix is well-known for producing films and TV shows that appeal to Gen Z audiences, mostly by adding socially conscious themes such as racism, feminism, classism, and even mental health issues. No different is the most recent dark comedy on Netflix, Do Revenge, starring Camila Mendes and Maya Hawke.

Director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson stated in a Vanity Fair interview that she intended to “create a campy popcorn movie that does not live in reality.” Do Revenge is a chic and enjoyable adolescent film that revives all the elements of 90s teen films we adore while still being pertinent to Gen Z’s spirit and culture.

Starting at the beginning

The narrative starts when Drea (Camila Mendes), the Queen Bee of a prestigious private school, was ousted after the release of her sex tape. The accused leaker of the sex tape and Drea’s ex-boyfriend, Max (Austin Abrams), was the school’s golden boy and regularly presents himself as a woke ally who respects women and backs feminism.

After being forced into isolation, Drea befriends the timid new student Eleanor after losing her reputation and nearly losing her chance to attend Yale.

Opposites attract apparently

Drea and Eleanor’s improbable friendship, which itself flips a few clichés on their heads. Eleanor is the awkward, shy transfer student who, like everyone else at the school, comes from a wealthy family. Drea is the fashionable, confident girl who isn’t wealthy but mixes with the ‘right’ crowd and is very popular at school.

The start of mutual revenge

Eleanor was outed by her crush at summer camp when she was thirteen, and it has left her with a burning desire for vengeance. And it turns out that Eleanor’s former crush and current adversary, Carissa, attends the same school as her.

Drea wants Max (the ex boyfriend) to be shown as a false woke, misogynistic male, while Eleanor wants Carissa to have miserable fate. Together, Drea and Eleanor plan to exact each other’s revenge so that no one can link it to them.

Queen Bee of ‘Do Revenge’

Drea Torres, a student at Rosehill Private School who is preoccupied with getting into Yale, is portrayed by Riverdale’s Camila Mendes. She is the head of a hive that includes Tara (Alisha Boe), Meghan (Paris Berelc), and Montana, a scholarship student who resembles Tracy Flick (Maia Reficco).

Drea is believed to be popular but really only afraid, and she has hidden insecurities. She is a Mexican American who has assimilation issues and resides in a modest home that makes her feel bad.

Underdog of ‘Do Revenge’

Enter Eleanor (Maya Hawke), a gangly white lesbian dressed in typical Hollywood frump attire who is still scarred by a summer camp tragedy that happened many years ago. There is more to Eleanor than we first think, so don’t base your expectations on what you think you will see in the movie as you read this.

The film takes its sweet time introducing each character and setting the plot’s framework in motion.

Do Revenge

Do Revenge is a regular chick flick with a dark twist

Do Revenge follows all the rules of a traditional teen film: it features a compelling story, a satisfying conclusion, a great pop-based music, and excellent costume design on top of that. But what makes Do Revenge more entertaining to watch is how it has so many inspired nuances from teen movies from the 1990s and the early 2000s.

For instance, the scene where Drea gives Eleanor a makeover and makes her into a chic, self-assured person has similarities to the one in Clueless (1995) where Cher and Dione give Tai a makeover.

Do revenge is seen as a woke teen flick

The best thing about Do Revenge is how honestly it captures the highs and lows of the woke period. It utilizes these ideas as the foundation for an entertaining and exciting high school drama. Despite being based on cliché high school instances, all of the dialogue is skillfully written, and the characters are multifaceted rather than one-dimensional.

Do Revenge is a cool, enjoyable teen movie that merits our attention. especially during a time when many authors and filmmakers made valiant attempts to appeal to young audiences but were ultimately unsuccessful.

This was our take on the latest chick flick from Netflix. Have you had a chance to watch this film yet? if yes, do let us know about your views on the movie in the comments section below and keep visiting Newsum.us for more such fun content.

Till then, Do Revenge!
