Plot 

The film’s protagonist is Cassie Thomas, played by Carey Mulligan. Cassie is a thirty year old Medical School dropout who lives with her parents and works at a coffee shop.

Neither the college administration nor the legal system secured any justice for Nina. Now, Cassie prowls the bars around her home on the weekends, pretending to be drunk to be taken home by some man, and reveal that she was sober if he tried to take advantage of her inebriation. When Cassie got to know that Al Monroe was about to get married, she decides to finish Nina’s revenge on Al and everyone else who was involved but decided to keep quiet. The film follows Cassie on her revenge-journey.

Star Performance 

Carey Mulligan is spectacular in the film. She perfectly portrays her character’s anguish, resolve, and suffering. The viewers would definitely empathize with her character because she derives no satisfaction from her acts of revenge, she is just trying to secure justice for her friend.

Analysis 

The film has a dark and entertaining storyline. The protagonist is strong and determined to topple the biased system that protected a heinous criminal, and she does so by exposing dozens of men to their rotten personalities. The film is just as strong as its protagonist and does not shy away from exploring sensitive issues. 

What’s There?

• The film is has a powerful and enthralling storyline

What’s Not There?

• The film’s ending feels a bit disappointing, and some parts of the film feel rushed

Verdict

“Promising Young Woman” is a potent film and is one that would stay with the viewers for quite some time. The performances are great and the story is dark and enthralling. The film would be a good watch for thriller and crime enthusiasts.
