The narrative is inconsistent and never quite finds its rhythm as it toggles between characters and issues, but ultimately is pleasing enough and shows a deeper insight than most movies that tackle historical events and big issues.

offers plenty to enjoy, with Kiera Knightley a personable, likeable lead and plenty of hiss-able chauvinists for her to collide with...these fictional females seem rather less interesting than their real-life counterparts as revealed in the final credits.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 7, 2024

While the film doesn’t quite land as smoothly as it aims, it’s refreshing to see at least an attempt at intersectional feminism in such a glossy package.

Misbehaviour is an all-girl show, in front of the camera and behind it. And it's a really good story that makes its points with sharp writing, spirited performances and a light touch.

It’s fun to watch all these disparate characters and agendas collide.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 21, 2022

While Misbehaviour boasts an impressive cast and just enough relatable frustration to warrant enjoying, the viewer could imagine a more rugged version of the same story.

Misbehaviour dispenses with the pageantries making for a solid social-political drama.

| Original Score: B- | Feb 17, 2021

The film is a little too well-behaved for a subject meant to be inflammatory and characters understandably angry. Embracing British properness in a broad approach to the era ultimately does a disservice to the stories of these gutsy women.

Misbehaviour is an ambitious movie disguised as a feel good Britcom.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 29, 2021

Misbehaviour is a bit too safe and crowd-pleasing but reminds us that some things are still worth standing up for.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 28, 2021

'Misbehaviour' tells parallel stories about two sets of young women trying to improve things. Both the feminists and the contestants want more and better opportunities - they're just using diametrically opposed methods of getting there.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jan 22, 2021

A nuanced, well-written slice of very colorful history. Some of the conclusions are a bit on the nose, and Greg Kinnear's nose is a bit off, but I'm glad I experienced this story.

Featuring a slew of strong performances, it's a film worth your time.
