Thanks for the movie review. I did not see this movie, and I did not understand your critique, but it helped me understand why I no longer enjoy movies.

I apparently did not have enough college psychology courses to enable me to understand modern movies. I wasted my college years in business school. Never realized I would need to psychoanalyze the actors and director to enjoy a movie.

I think we have to ask ourselves if there can be improper mindsets presented to the public to move an agenda. If the answer is no, then no need to worry. If the answer is yes, then perhaps we would take notice of the messages that are conveyed.

I don’t think it’s healthy to present the idea that men are craven beasts that need to be perfected by a woman.

If you think I’m being to picky and judgmental, you may in fact be right.

I don’t ask for perfection in movies. I do think the vision of this movie was deeply flawed. That’s my take on it.

I don’t think we need to put our minds on autopilot and accept anything they want to pump into it. Sometimes I object. Sometimes I think we should.
