In all, this is a failure. Act one, the goading of our heroine to become a Feme-nazi, is just OTT and not at all worthy of getting her sympathy, so crabby and bitchy is she. Act two, the training of our wannabe Feme-nazi, is proof that the training montage should stay the montage, and not be a whole third of a piece. There is some merit to be had in the fallout third act, but not really enough. Which is a shame, as this could have been so much better. Not to be adapted by a Weinstein any time soon.
This was an interesting comic about a group I'd heard of but knew little about, FEMEN. The training scenes and backlash for Apolline (our fictional heroine) were really cool, unique bits. However, the beginning section where Apolline has the experiences that inspire her to become an activist were REALLY heavy-handed - they could've been way more insidious, like they often are in "real life."
