Deftly moderating her patented eye-rolling poseur shtick, Page delivers her most charismatic and least divisive performance to date as Bliss Cavendar, aka Babe Ruthless. Apr 8, 2010 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Surprisingly touching moments of realisation and emotional connection manage to rise above the dramatic cliches that pepper the rest of the film and account for the best scenes in Whip It. Next to all the punch-ups on the track, that is. Oct 8, 2009 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The story is not particularly original, but the milieu is, and so is the energy in this ode to girl power. Dec 4, 2018 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Though it's got first-timer mistakes (too long, too many food fights) its indie-rock girl-power charms are, like co-star Kristen Wiig, undeniable. Nov 16, 2018 | Full Review…
