FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/swiped-movie-review-a-captivating-film-that-triumphantly-overcomes-its-imperfections/
"Swiped tells an important and necessary story about resilience and female empowerment in the tech industry. It's sustained by a magnificent central performance from Lily James, which alone makes it worth watching.
However, its impact is diluted by a conventional narrative approach, an overly polished visual presentation that contradicts its serious themes, and a series of distracting creative choices that prioritize the wrong kind of authenticity. It's a frustrating experience, precisely because Whitney Wolfe's story deserved a more cohesive and fearless execution.
In the end, it's a movie whose message of courage triumphs over its own hesitations."
