I haven’t watched it yet, but it sounds interesting, so I will.
But if women have had to put up with decades of movies with a “men big, hard, and clever/women stupid” theme, I’m sure men can tolerate one film where they’re the important ones.
It's funny as hell too, I was cracking up all movie. Really fun ride.
I’ll make an effort to watch it then.
I ended up watching it, and I'd have to agree. I ain't a third wave feminist and didn't like a lot of the messaging about the war of the sexes, but I don't think that kept it from being a hilarious film. The feminist messaging wasn't even that heavy-handed until the end.
And while MGTOW-adjacent (I find the movement a bit harmful TBH), I do think their messaging about being a simp was pretty good. I approve of anti-simp messaging.
Hard agree, honestly it was some of the most fun I've had in any movie this year, so worth seeing
