Introduced this to friends two days ago. Since learning that the mech suits were 85 ish pounds, now I watch and have questions like “How are they running in those? Got to be wire work.”

It’s such a well acted and shot movie, and I’m also glad it’s its own thing and not a franchise.

Also, why the pearl clutching in the film that Rita is the Full Metal Bitch? She’s a badass bitch.

She clearly didn't like it. That's why she fucks up the dude that calls her that name.

The "dude" that calls her that and gets smacked is Emily Blunt's younger brother.

Yes, get that. It would have been an insult for the character Rita in, say, 1990. It just hits my ear wrong, that's all. It is played for laughs, too.
