Molly (2017) by Colinda Bongers, Thijs Meuwese - cranefly - 08-31-2022 In a post apocalyptic wasteland, a geekish 17-ish girl with coke-bottle glasses struggles to survive moment to moment.  Armed with a bow and arrow and an antique gun with precious few bullets, she battles other scavengers while drawing the attention of the main villain, who runs some sort of underground combat ring.  Molly is suspected to have supernatural powers, which makes her highly desirable for the combat ring. This movie is junk.  The actress playing Molly is not particularly athletic.  The main villain is cardboardish and a bad actor, and the fights are sloppy. Yet it turned out to be a guilty pleasure for me--especially in the late goings.  I kept asking myself, Why am I still with this?  Well, there was such complexity with late scenes.  The camera movement was so good, shifting from one sloppy fight to another.  So, yeah, I watched it to the bitter end and later read that the last scene is 32 minutes long.  It takes place in a warren of rooms on a dilapidated oil-drilling platform, if I grokked it right.  Most interesting is her several encounters with a tall blonde woman with a bionic arm.  Despite its roughness, I'm still marveling at the effort that must have gone into it. Not great by any means, but it has an infectious low-budget ramp-up at the end that kept me watching, and rooting for Molly. Seldom have I suspended my disbelief so far.
