Interesting but not super engaging.

I've only heard of Brandy Melville in discussions of past fashion trends... but I always love a good documentary.

I think this documentary covered all that it needed to, but still fell a bit flat for me. I understood the hype sustained by teenage girls, the strangely predatory business practices that went unnoticed, the casual racism... but it was all "tell" and very little "show." Maybe it was just not possible, but I think lots of more interesting incidents could be found via social media where people regularly "expose" others, such as Tiktok. You're telling me there were no recorded incidents of discrimination/bad attitude from sales reps/etc anywhere???

Obviously those who worked closely for this brand are still suffering the repercussions of that, and I'm not aiming to minimize, but I don't think this film conveyed the impact well enough. Overall an interesting watch, but no re-watch value here in my opinion.

Better than expected

The negative reviews are over the top. I found this to be an insightful documentary. I'm glad they didn't censure or coach any of the girls who were interviewed... they were fully themselves. Any complaints that the girls were annoying... is honestly stupid to say here in a review. That's your personal opinion about real people who were not scripted... this is not a fictional movie. This is about a fairly controversial clothing brand that's geared toward teenage girls... not about underpaid librarians or something... Get a grip.

I very much appreciated and enjoyed this documentary. I had no idea about Brandy Melville previously. I will gladly discourage my niece from ever shopping there, too. The CEO is a toxic pig.

Very Insightful documentary into the global impact of fast fashion

Corporations preying on young women and their desire to be trendy, resulting in Chinese sweat shops in Italy of all places, massive dumping grounds and water pollution via microplastics, and throw in corporate racism, sexual abuse, and antisemitism. The show exposed a lot more than I was expecting and the massive global impact these corporate practices have. I thoroughly enjoyed the narrative flow of the documentary and how it guides the viewer from a start that seems like a fairly innocuous new brand with unusual marketing practices with an all Instagram marketing strategy and largely self taken photos by eager young customers.

Certainly not a trivial problem and it is negatively impacting 10s of thousands if not 100s of thousands of people globally. The folks giving poor reviews clearly didn't watch the entire movie.
