Je ne suis pas un homme facile

I've never written or rated a movie, but felt that the average rating on IMDb did the movie a great injustice that I had to write this.

It's a real shame that the majority of those who rated it poorly failed to see the point of the film. The film focuses on exaggerating every single character and detail, from the chauvnistic male lead, to the 180° world reversal. Though neither world is necessarily one that we currently live in, most men fail to see their own behaviour or sense of entitlement until it's exaggerated in the form of a film like this. Even then, so many men come in here, angrily ranting this is not their nature. If you're not, great, good for you. But the truth is, just like the issue of being born into a certain "superior" race, those living a privileged life fail to realize just how good they have it! The same holds true for gender privilege.

Damien is the epitome of chauvinistic men. I, as a woman who looks/dresses a certain type of way, deal with this on a daily basis. This movie is meant to give men a taste of their own medicine. The exaggerations, such as women dressing in suits/driving loud sports cars, are spot on. A lot of reviewers have rated the movie negatively because of this. They fail to see that these acts have been oversimplified, because how can we possibly begin to address things like job inequality, women in executive positions etc, when we still live in a world where men can catcall women on a daily basis, and we just "deal with it".

Whatever mindset you're coming from, give this movie a watch. It's very eye-opening, from both a male and female presepective (watched this with a male friend myself). It made me realize how I've adjusted my own way of life, in a sense, to deal with certain situations I come across on a daily basis!

Very good idea but poorly executed. The film is quite boring in some parts and there is no ending.

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!

Most of comedy movies are just movies whose plots aim nothing but people's laughs. But "Je ne suis pas un homme facile" is a funny movie, excellent for making you laugh, have fun, chill and to make you "wear the woman's shoes" by making men to play their social roles and "vice versa".

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.
