Can someone please explain this to me? I've never once heard someone say that they didn't like the fact that there were women in it. People keep saying its a misogyny thing like they can't accept that it might just not be a good movie.

i haven't seen it, but i'm skimming the reviews on imdb:

only black woman in the thing is a 'HEELLLL NO" racial stereotype 40 years out of date, and ALL the men, without a single exception, are exclusively depicted as either stupid or evil.

3: The bland lobotomized token male. Pretty much the only main character who was a man was turned into a stereotype. He was useless, annoying, fake, had an IQ below sea-level, and was clearly trying to pretend to be Brad Pitt, but with none of the acting talent. He also only got hired because of his looks.

4: The racism. The only black character was turned into a loud, annoying, street-smart stereotype.


i really like female characters and genderswaps to create female characters. but even i'm iffy about watching it.

If you've paid attention to the haters even a tiny bit, you wouldn't have this question. :(

No one has said it can't be a bad movie, but the instant hate and vitriol that came out from the moment the cast was announced and the constant barrage of 'women can't be funny, etc' that came along with it has made it pretty hard to do so without any agenda.

Lol, it must be really hard to watch a movie where the only people of your gender are eye candy without agency, how sad it must be to experience.
