There is no unfair system at work and if there was it is against MEN as in you can't get out of it!

They've done studies on how we think, according to generation. In the baby boomers men and women think and problem solve very differently. That difference is near non existent in the latest generations. Who has a great deal of institutional and government power? What generation runs Hollywood? Not the latest.

To be honest, and troll aside, but because of this day and age with Feminism being the royal pain in the ass it is, every time a female character is the one leading and
comes out on top at the end
, I do tend to think of Feminism playing it's role in the female's characters being a bit unrealistic. A lot of girls and women I know chicken out over the most silliest things and are afraid of EVERYTHING. I doubt most random skinny white women have the mental and physical wherewithal when an unpredictable situation such as the one in this movie arises.
The thing with this character though, Michelle, I thought she was very likable. She showed realistic signs of fright, but at the same time, she wasn't over agonizing and she kept cool (Keep in mind she wanted to escape)
It's not like she out muscled her way out of the hatch at the end of the movie in a bikini with 6 men stuck to the end of the stick as they tried to rape her. No. It wasn't that. There was a male AND a female held captive down there. She wasn't buying Howard's stories at all (why should she) and still had to motivation to get out. Again, I liked her. Her "What the F" expressions on her face were realistic. I was rooting for her.
If you want to look at every Feminists wet dream then look at Sidney Prescott from the Scream movies.
The saddest part of the movie though was
Emmitt getting blown away when he admitted to Howard it was all his idea to try and take his gun. What kind of loser does this and dies for a girl he didnt even get to see her boobies? -

"The saddest part of the movie though"
Well he obviously tried the old White Knight tactic and as usual it backfired spectacularly for him as it most often does for real men who try it too - not his fault, society programmes men and boys from a young age to white knight for women and women are happy to let them do it as they can take advantage of it. -

LOL, it must be so frustrating for all you adult virgins. I bet you had to hire another prostitute and whine at her about it, whilst constantly having to resist the urge to beat her.
So utterly pathetic. -

'And the trend continues with potraying men as weak and clumsy and women as superior and strong taking out ships with wine bottles and newspaper.when will this trend end?'
Long may the trend continue.
It's that man again!! -

So you are seeing every movie through the lens of gender, exactly like feminists?
No, no, no. Jeez.
When non-feminists attack a movie for its use of gender, they are being
analytical
. They are being objective and scientific. You know, like a man.
When feminists attack a movie for its use of gender, they are being hysterical complainers. You know, like a woman. -

Feeling a tad emasculated are we? Prefer your women sub-servient, "don't you worry your pretty little head. You go make my dinner while the man solves the problem"? Is that what you'd prefer, you misogynistic dickhead?!
