Thelma and Louise Review

Posted : 1 month ago on 6 September 2008 12:23 (A review of Thelma and Louise)

Ridley Scott's movie, Thelma and Louise, is about two good friends by the same name that leave for a weekend getaway and things don't quite work out the way they plan. Due to bad circumstances and some bad decisions, they end up being on the run from the law. Although, if in reality I would not condone their actions, in the fantasy world of the movie it is fun to cheer for their characters. What woman has not been hit on or done wrong in some fashion by a crude, gross, male chauvinist pig and felt like they wish they could let them have it? Thelma and Louise get to play that role in their fantasy world and it is fun to watch. There is also a lot of sad and somewhat dark scenes as well but the movie overall keeps a pretty light hearted feel for the most part.
When this movie came out, it brought a little bit of controversy with it. Critics stated things like it showed feminism going to far. I don't see it that way. It is simply a movie, a fictional movie, that has a plot of two strong female characters. I like Kill Bill as well but I don't think that Tarantino meant for that movie to mean that females should all become "ninja warriors." Thelma and Louise is just a movie that plays on the emotional side of women being a bit fed up with some of the crap they can receive from society.

Far fetched and little to keep my attention, but Geena Davis is in her hotness prime...
