    The lesbian lifestyle emphasis didn’t come across in the preview. I would have liked to of had a choice before I am seated in front of the screen as to my choice of lifestyle.

    The movie was okay but not amazing. I feel like it would’ve been better if they used someone who’s not a big actress. Some parts were kinda cringy, especially the way she talked and acted. It’s more of a one-time watch for me.

The film never rises above its clichés.

Christy is ultimately a redemptive story, complete with the discovery of an actual loving relationship. But the road to redemption is rough on the character and, at times, the audience. Still, it has a certain NASCAR charm (particularly in the early scenes), and characters who effectively carry it forward.

Something feels a tad icky when you’re exiting the theatre of a dispiriting true story and being told you’re supposed to actually feel good.
