BOTTOMS, a refreshingly unique raunchy comedy, focuses on two girls, PJ and Josie, who start a fight club as a way to lose their virginities to cheerleaders. Their bizarre plan works. The fight club gains traction and soon the most popular girls in school are beating each other up in the name of self-defense. But PJ and Josie find themselves in over their heads and in need of a way out before their plan is exposed.

Clarisse Loughrey

Independent (UK)

Real-life friends Sennott and Edebiri are harmonious in ways that relieve them of the need to land flat-out punchlines. Instead, they just sweat funny out of their pores.

Rated: 4/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

Even if the scattershot plotting doesn’t quite hold together, there’s a wayward energy to the picture and a barbed sense of mischief.

Rated: 3/5

It’s a smart comedy disguised as a stupid one, with a thousand jokes landing per minute and some of the *tightest* mise en scène we’ve ever scène. But even if it were just a stupid comedy, guys make those all the time. That’s the point of feminism.

Bottoms is the best high school comedy since Booksmart, and, for my money, an instant classic.
