Misogynist

Misogynist is described by its director as "the antidote to all the Fifty Shades of Grey-mania" - which is very much true, it's about dominance and submission gone wrong, about blunt sexism (if sugarcoated by a well-spoken character), and about broken characters who don't look for romance in their relationships, just about taking home a short term win. But all that said, this is not a brain-heavy movie, but rather a well-structured little thriller with some great set pieces and a finale that definitely comes unexpected, but at the same time gives good closure to all character arcs and even has some tongue-in-cheek quality to it (though I wonder if anybody notices). And add to that solid performances and a subtle directorial effort, and you get a pretty good movie, actually, and well worth a look!

Really bad movie, no plot, nothing of any value at all. Nothing positive to say about this movie, at all. We were intrigued by an 8.6 rating. Not sure who rated it highly,but we would recommend that you watch anything else but this. There is no plot. The story barely exists, hard to say what could interest anyone about this movie. There is nothing sensual, erotic or appealing. stop now pick something else It is hard to find 10 lines of anything to write about this moving. (10 lines are the minimum required to submit a review). Did I mention that this movie was really bad. The title should have been enough, but it wasn't even descriptive of how bad the movie was.

This film has a fair amount of positive reviews and I can see why!

Writer/Director Michael Matteo Rossi has definitely delivered with his first feature film 'Misogynist'. The film is highly engaging and the storyline is strong and character-driven. The cast did a fantastic job, the chemistry between the characters in scenes was very real. Jon briddell and Jonathan Bennett did a fantastic job portraying the characters and carried the film well! They worked really well together and it definitely showed on screen.

I recommend this well told indie film to anyone who loves a story that doesn't hold back and pushes the boundaries.

Writer/Director Michael Matteo Rossi has caught the attention of many with his first feature film 'Misogynist'. In a current social climate that is seemingly anti white heterosexual male, it takes some guts to try to put out a film about a narcissistic, awful, violent man - which Matteo pulls off brilliantly.

Misogynist is a low budget thriller that focuses on a man (Trevor) who for some reason has a huge chip on his shoulder concerning woman. He believes they want to be controlled, told what to do and even man handled. Trevor (played wonderfully by Jon Briddell) even goes so far as to have created a somewhat secret "Fight Club" where he teaches his rules to young men wanting to know how to get laid.

Trevor befriend's Harrison, a man who recently got dumped by his girlfriend. Trevor promises to teach him his ways of women, and makes Harrison (played by Jonathan Bennett) his protégé.

Throughout the film, we get to learn the top rules on how to make women want a man. Even the most unavailable and beautiful women. What interested me the most about this movie was that it doesn't praise this sort of narcissistic, misogynistic main character's behavior. It's actually a cautionary tale, and shines a light on a social issue that has been a part of culture's since the beginning of time.

Alia Raelynn, Danielle Lozeau and Kris Black offer strong supporting roles and throughout the film there is great chemistry between all of the actors. If I had one issue with the film, it was the sound on certain scenes. A couple times the main character was speaking/whispering while his back was turned, and I had to strain to hear what was being said. I personally watch captions on every film I can, and hope to see this again with a caption option (or maybe I'll crank up the headphones or surround system).

All in all I recommend Misogynist because it is a solid first effort and tackles a subject the way Fifty Shades of Grey failed to. I really liked the ending of this film, it tied all the loose strings together. I can't wait to see what Michael Matteo Rossi does next.

Michael has delivered amazingly with his first feature length film. The characters are well written and developed, storyline is well driven and laid out. The story was full of interesting dialogue. Highly recommended
