WHIP IT DVD Review...

I got the chance to review the WHIP IT DVD. I really like Drew Barrymore and Ellen Page so when I heard they were going to be in this I was excited to see it! Drew Barrymore is also the director of this film! I liked how Bliss Cavedar (Ellen Page) was a nerd at the start of this movie but by the end she was Babe Ruthless, one of the best roller derby girls around. It makes you feel good at the end when her mom and dad come to support her in the championship when at first they didn't want anything to do with it. I also liked Drew Barrymore's character Smashley Simpson. She likes to get in fights and thrown out of the game. The special features have 9 deleted scenes and an alternate opening. I liked this movie.

On January 26th, Fox Home Entertainment released WHIP IT on DVD & Blu-ray!
