Femme (2023)
4/10
Missed Mark

"Femme" falls short in its exploration. The characters lack depth and are one-dimensional, especially Jules, who experiences homophobia and becomes the target of an attack. The movie's focus on a flimsy idea of retribution undermines its attempt to examine forgiveness and the impact of hatred, making the narrative fall flat.

Unfortunately, "Femme" fails to deliver as a significant and thought-provoking movie, and instead perpetuates the cycle of violence. It's disappointing that the film prioritises a tacky and poorly executed narrative over the chance for a nuanced exploration of identity and trauma.
