I feel like this movie has a vibe that can only be described as "rapey". Almost all the men in this movie were super into being the worst. I'm not against stuff like that being used as a plot device but it happened so often and so flagrantly that it REALLY seems like glorification of the maltreatment of women. It has the vibe of a whole bunch of porn addicted twenty five year olds with a voyeurism kink coming together (pun intented) and making a nausea inducing, cinmematographer's nightmare. It was scary, but probably not in the way intented.

I saw the directors cut version or whatever and honestly? wasnt at all offensive. some scenes were messed up, but not walk-out worthy like i was expecting. although, the cinematography was dizzying and eventually made me throw up (no joke). granted, i get vertigo playing video games, but that has literally never happened to me before. im a huge movie lover and go to theaters weekly and this is the first time ive ever had a movie make me puke. it wasnt anything about my Delicate Sensibilities, either. there was only one part of the movie that made me genuinely uneasy (which is a huge disappointment). the movie was overall fine. it wouldnt have been memorable if it hadnt made me sick and it wouldnt be my first reccomendation for a mind-freak movie bc it wasnt even the sort of movie to leave me guessing. it was a movie easily taken at face-value and nothing more. there is no unexplainable genius behind this film, please stop giving it more credit than it deserves

Took the idea for the purge and made it better and more believable. political but still story driven, just being hyperbolic about the truth instead of faking it entirely. big ups for not parading around the trans woman like a prop, too
