I write for a diversity-focused film review blog, so I’ll be honest: I really wanted to like Pretty Lethal. Starring Maddie Ziegler, Lana Condor, Iris Apatow, Avantika, and Millicent Simmonds, Amazon Prime’s new thriller seemed like it would be a girl power movie about dancers with a horror action twist. Sort of a Suspiria for teens. But with shallow and unlikeable characters, a confusing plot, an overreliance on violence, and cringey dialogue, any fun the movie started out with was quickly lost. What was left was a faint echo of greater horror movies about dancers made before.
An enchanted school for young heroes and villains brings the battle between good and evil in this fantasy movie.
As a frequent “the book was better” extoller, this movie was well worth the watch.
Disney has long since had a reputation for creating underwhelming sequels. Is Zootopia 2 any different?
