Becky (2020) | Rotten Tomatoes
- ️Fri Jun 05 2020
Becky isn't quite able to sustain enough intensity to fully take advantage of its premise, though it serves up entertainingly nasty thrills for genre fans.
Denis B The frustration and sorrow in Becky portrays a realistic grief of loss and in turn a response absolutely warranted Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/25 Full Review Ralph R Becky is a campy, over-the-top revenge flick that’s surprisingly fun. The premise of a little girl outsmarting and taking down a group of dangerous criminals might seem ridiculous, and yeah, there are plenty of moments where logic takes a backseat, but it works. Becky’s resourcefulness and sheer determination make her escape and revenge satisfying to watch. The movie leans into its absurdity in all the right ways, with scenes that had me shaking my head but still enjoying every second. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, which is part of the charm. Sure, some parts are far-fetched, but hey, it’s a movie you just go with it. Overall, Becky delivers on what it promises: a wild, entertaining ride that keeps you hooked, even if it bends reality a little too much. Definitely one I’d rewatch when I’m in the mood for some fun, campy revenge Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/30/24 Full Review Holland W Good idea with EXTREMELY poor execution. Kevin James as the main antagonist was laughable. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/30/24 Full Review Charlie R I'll open by saying I don't particularly like gore and slasher films. However I have enjoyed the ones that are campy and can make fun of the genre. Becky is almost or sometimes entirely reaching that style. It is a mixed bag of things so I am sure it gets mixed reviews. I think it would have done better by sticking to the campy/satirical violence but it veers into lengthier dialogues and the heroine's dark psyche steers it into slasher territory. In my opinion the plot falls into the lap of three characters by the second half and the rest are support so it's not complicated to follow. Even if generally this is not my thing, I really liked the first quarter starting from the beginning because of the imaginative camera closeups and transitions that would be appealing to the eye in any film. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/15/24 Full Review Thom G Becky serves as an okay diversion, but it lacks substance, suffers from extreme repetitiveness, and is highly predictable from the outset. Additionally, there are insufficient elements to truly connect the audience with the character of Becky, who ultimately comes across as quite shallow and not really interesting. These factors do not facilitate the suspension of disbelief, as everything that unfolds is way too far-fetched to be credible, including in a gonzo-type film where one typically indulges in the action without much reflection or expectation. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/30/24 Full Review Ronald F Nice one, good for a watch, quite brutal, I like Kevin James here, Lulu Wilson does a good job as Becky, but for some reason she`s not interesting or likable enough, to really root for her, besides that I don`t like, that the giant "Apex" is getting quite some time in the movie to show that he is not a real villain and gets shot in the end... off course, You can ask, what the key was for, especially, why it was with the family...but I did not need that information to enjoy the movie. Again, not perfect and well, Becky as the hero is not really a great selling point, but still, a nice watch :) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/13/24 Full Review Read all reviews
