Whip It

21 May 2010


 - Credit: Whip It is the directorial debut of Drew Barrymore. The story of being your own hero, and finding out who you are. Set in and just outside Austin Texas it tells the story of a girl fighting to find her own path against her mothers insistence she do beauty pageants and finding herself the world of Roller Derby, where a team of misfits become her new family.

It sounds like an odd concept, or at least a very girly one. And it is, I left the theatre feeling a hell of a lot of ‘girl power’ and an overwhelming desire to don some skates and try it myself because it looked so much fun and so damn cool. (I still want to try this, so be warned of the girl whizzing down Park Street looking unstable, it’s probably me).

I really enjoyed the film, I understand it’s probably not everyone’s cup of tea but i thought Barrymore actually did an incredibly good job. It’s pleasing on the eye, tells a good story with a good moral - that girls can do anything they want to do - without ramming it down your throat, the soundtrack is fun, and she has used some very beautiful shots and edits. In particular the pool scene looks romantic and sweet.

Whip It will leave you wanting your own Roller Derby alter ego, I’ve picked Killma Flintstone.
