Disgrace Of A Movie!!!!!
25 November 2007
What is wrong with American movies these days? Hollyweird keeps making movies that have men acting like women and women acting like men. The idiotic male director and writer of this movie need to have their heads examined. The main problem with this film is its extremely feminist portrayal of genders which is fused with almost macabre conceptions of both sexes, and this disastrous combination is meant to be jocular.

In the scenes of the bar, Eva Mendez and her friend are swigging from the beer bottles like you may find sailors on an oil tanker doing so at a bar in Reykjavik. Mendez continually touches every girl she sees after that and dresses provocatively in every scene, yet curses like a guy. She also gets very emotional when she fights with Will Smith while 'defending' women from bad guys everywhere.

The men are no better in this movie. What we see is a bunch of idiots trying to do anything they can to obtain a relation. They are concerned with obtaining lewd favours or unable to speak clearly when face to face with a woman. Normal men in real life do not behave this way.

What we see in this movie is a product of culture gone awry. Everything is flip-flopped. Guys act like girls, girls act like guys. All this is done while keeping the extreme predilections of the sexes very much a part of the story. Men are shown as soft and stupid but only interested in licentiousness most of the time, while women are shown as macho and overbearing but only as a veneer for their emotional insecurities.

Some of this movie's ideas would be at the most watchable if they weren't presented obnoxiously to the audience. However, this movie is not even watchable, let alone enjoyable!
