CGiii Comment

We live in overly-sensitive, overly-analytical times...

Okay...this is a film about men and masculinity...directed, written and produced by women!

There is a rule in writing...stick to what you know...a rule that has been savagely ignored by women who think they know about men...but, know NOTHING about being a man.

So...if it's an insight you are looking for...look elsewhere.

Spurious statistics are thrown at the screen...a plethora of 'experts' spout their noxious psyco-babble...for what end?

Well...it all boils down to man-hating extravaganza...a thoroughly debauched view of society...riddled with a faux political correctness that really does come across as 'hate speech' - ouch!

Sensitive men, they get a free pass...because, they are in touch with their feminine side. Ouch!
