It has a good rating some reviewers were too scared to give it a bad one for fear of looking sexist, which was revealed as a Sony marketing tactic, while others praised it for being socially progressive. The film itself, which I'd watch if it was on NFI but wouldn't pay a dime for, is supposedly mediocre at best so it should have at the most a 50% rating.

while the core audience refused to watch this movie to begin with?


That shouldn't factor into its ratings.

tldr but it's not overrated at all. If anything, it's underrated, and I say that as someone who thinks it's actually pretty mediocre. The hate train for this thing is outrageous.


A claim which makes no sense given its great ratings which clearly weren't impacted by any hate.

The hate train was pretty well deserved considering Sony Pictures and the director's intention of insulting the potential male audience and forcing their 3rd Wave Feminist agenda down on people's throats.

Nah, he really only did this after they'd already outed themselves. It never looked like it was going to be some great movie, but the reaction it got was the same kind of reaction you'd expect from a sympathetic Hitler biopic with Rob Schneider in the lead role.


At least that had the potential to be funny.
