Hang onto your helmet and get ready to break away from the pack! Ellen Page scores huge laughs as Bliss Cavendar, a small-town teenager with a big dream: to find her own path in the world. Tired of following in her family's footsteps of compliance and conformity, Bliss discovers a way to put her life on the fast track...literally. She lands a spot on a rough-and-tumble roller derby team and becomes "Babe Ruthless" — the hottest thing on eight wheels! Co-starring Drew Barrymore (in her
feature film directorial debut), Marcia Gay Harden, Juliette Lewis, Daniel Stern and Jimmy Fallon, Whip It is a triumphant, free-spirited comedy loaded with high-speed action and nonstop fun!

Not sure how I didn't hear about this one when it was in theaters, but it's really a fun movie! Ellen Page is always great and seeing Drew Barrymore's directorial debut was also awesome. Great cast, enjoyable story, well-written script, and now I'm stoked to go see a roller derby bout tomorrow night! Check out your local league. :-)

This is my all time favorite movie. Great girl empowerment message. Funny and the acting and the characters are amazing. This movie is so relatable to almost any teenage girl in our time. Highly recommended
