Amy Poehlerâs coming-of-age dramedy about a teenager who launches a feminist club to fight the patriarchy in her high school is produced like a slick piece of popular music, with all the easy listening/viewing vibes that suggests. Adapted from Jennifer Mathieuâs novel, Moxie is so indebted to the rhythms and grooves of other movies and shows that you can predict not just certain plot points, but certain
lines before they happen; like when you feel a chord change coming in a catchy song.
