The Misandrists

Definitely not worth the bandwidth to view, very unattractive women (are some actually dudes?!)

Don't assume by the synopsis that there might be anything erotic or fetish, it's just man-hating.

As one review stated, if this movie was made with all sexes reversed, I'm sure there would be arrests.

I was at the premiere of this movie in TBLB last week, and REALLY tried to sit through it, convincing myself that it was purposefully awful maybe for satirical reasons, and the director may turn this monotone into something different afterwards.

I was absolutely wrong.

Walked out after 1 hour of this worthless crap cause, you guessed it, nothing changed - I should've done that much earlier on. I tried thinking of one single film worse than this one, and couldn't come up with anything.

You think the book "Fahrenheit 911" is meaningless? Try watching "the misandrists". You think a satire certainly has to be fun and playful? Let Bruce lebruce change your mind. This is the first satire made to be even more unbearable than the subject it, supposedly, poked fun of, which makes you wonder: why doing satire at the first place?

Colourless and cringeworthy dialogues, plastic symbolisms and plots... given that the word movie stands for motion pictures, it is absolutely terrifying to see a movie with no motion depicted in it. Everything was stand-alone with the most robotic interaction in between. Sometimes the director tries to bring some "clever" metaphors and symbolisms, but the delivery is, as it's always been, plastic, abrupt, and irrelevant to the plot.

I want my money back.

I think that it was a bold move to make this one. Mainly because he had to build the whole film from radical feminist theory (which is frequently transphobic) without making it look really bad because then it would make him look anti feministic. So the alternative he found, as i find it, is to slowly transition the essentialist radical feminism to a more performative queer kind of thing. The problem there is that 1) i dont think the film did a excelent job in representing the thought of the radical feminists even though most of the dialogue is composed of exposition and radical feminist rhetoric. I dont think it did a particularly bad job either but the whole porn thing does not make sense. Radical feminists have a very strong opposition to porn and its not just because men are involved in the making. Saying that their subjective view is implicit in the way we see and make porn is more in touch with the actual theory. The reason why i am lingering in this is because the film seems to be a way of trying to bridge the distance between queer and radfem theory and in that i think it underestimates the core disagreements between them. Other than that the film is at times funny and engaging, i had some problems with the soundtrack because i found it to be very boring and stale. Overral it is a fun watch and i hold it in high regard for being as edgy as it is and for trying a lot of things rhetorically.

The description says this is a dark comedy about a woman's colony where one straight lady hides a nice man, but in fact it is misogynist.

The misleading title promised a hilarious vision of white feminism gone too far, but instead opens with a scene of young girls being forced to be political lesbians by an establishment.

As far as I know, there's never been a civilization outside of a cult that has forced women to be lesbian or bisexual. Instead of being pro-queer this film is weirdly misogynist and paranoid of lesbians and bisexual women from scene one. Referring to same-sex attraction between women as misandry is ridiculous.

No.

I saw the title and was intrigued. The trailer had me searching to find this movie. After watching this train wreck of a film I realize that all my effort to find this movie were wasted. The movie is so chopped together and poorly acted. The acting is so poor that the most well acted scenes were the gay porn scenes they watch in the background. The concept is great, the execution not so much. Maybe I'm judging it wrong, but I definitely wanted more from this movie. The movie does succeed on one level, being that a man created this mess, it does reinforce my misandrist thoughts.
