Missed opportunity
Very good idea but poorly executed. The film is quite boring in some parts and there is no ending.
Can't see the gender prejudice any clearer!
I can see all the unfairness and ridiculousness of being a woman. And it's ugly! It seems natural; but, it had to take a gender role-reverse to see how bad it really is, and how strong women are- going through all the social expectations and s**t. All in a funny way though. I love it. It made me look deep into myself. Great movie!
A great movie with a terrible ending
Honestly, this movie was thought-provoking all the way around, but I've never seen a movie with such an unsatisfactory ending. Honestly, it ruined the movie for me, way too abrupt.
Please watch this movie!
People reviewing this movie poorly have missed the point. There is an ending and it is supposed to shock you into realising that this is the way the world actually is for women and how sad it is that this is reality.
I too wondered if they couldn't have made the feminine qualities dominant and masculine submissive but on further reflection, I think the way it was done was just right.
By flipping the gender roles so purely it is a great demonstration of how women live in this society.
I love, love, love the way Women's bodies are shot by the camera, just structurally without any sexualisation, this was very clever!
The film seems silly and fun on the surface but it relays a great message.
After watching this film with my (very straight, very white) father he came to the conclusion that maybe he had been underestimating how hard it is for women in our society (a big deal).
Please share this film with the men in your life and enjoy the sweet feeling of being understood.
Starts like a rom-com, ends up making you THINK
Excellent film. A world where women call the shots--from catcalls to fatherfuckers to men in short/shorts and nail polish...it's great.
In 1978, Gloria Steinem wrote, "what would happen if suddenly, magically, men could menstruate and women could not? ...Men would brag about how long and how much."
This movie illustrated that point--with humor, bite, and even a bit of sexual frisson.
See it.
