'Not Okay' Review: A Perfect Companion Piece to ‘Nope’
In Hulu’s Not Okay, it’s totally okay if you don’t like the female protagonist. In fact, you’re not supposed to. Spoilers ahead.
Not Okay is about a young, privileged white woman named Danni Sanders (Zoey Deutch) who is so bored with her life that she fakes a trip to Paris for clout and the attention of her crush, Colin (Dylan O’Brien). However, things take a turn when a real terrorist attack happens during her fake trip. She capitalizes on this, writing an article about her experience that skyrockets her to fame. She even joins a survivor’s group and befriends a passionate gun reform activist named Rowan (Mia Isaac). But her great new life is threatened when her coworker discovers her lie, and Danni is forced to expose herself to avoid being exposed. In the aftermath, she’s doxxed and hated online. While it initially sounds nothing like Nope, the focus on recording/sharing everything—especially trauma—for profit makes it similar to Jordan Peele’s newest movie.
The content warning at the beginning warns that Not Okay features an unlikable protagonist, and they weren't kidding! If the content warning went over your head
