      reject this kind of movie thank you

      Reading the introduction is about the love and marriage of strong women, but it turned out to be a sci-fi film... Looking at it, I think the core of the film has become a war between humans and robots... The director or screenwriter may have also discovered this, So in the end, he forced the male protagonist to know his mistake, and then rescued the strong women in the town, including his wife. Here it is again a drama with love at its core. It was originally a reality-themed movie, but it...

      write whatever you want

      My mother thinks that Copying My Wife is a very profound movie, which makes her an unbearable chill behind the back when watching it as an adult, and thinks why I am so young to watch such a dark horror thriller that sees through the world and doubts life, The whole process was like sitting on pins and needles. Fortunately, the ending of the 06 version was that the male and female protagonists conspired to bring down Utopia, and then the comedy ending where the male and female reversed...

      A film that satirizes male power in the context of a thriller

      I saw this inadvertently at station B. At first, it was aimed at Nicole, but I finally found out that it was a satire of male power. Recently, I happened to be studying an article by Beauvoir on equal rights between men and women. From the beginning of the title to the beginning, it was unknown for a long time, so at the end, I was reminded by the barrage that the wives were all robots before I suddenly woke up. Now that I think about it, those ad-like clips at the beginning of the film are...

      Completely Perfect

      If our requirements for ourselves and the other half are "perfect", it would be good to go to the assembly line.
      No love, no identity.
      Although the definition of "perfect" can be different, there will be n kinds of production lines to produce different "perfect".
      But extreme perfection is a machine. machine, robot.
      Just a different model of robot.
      Human's ultimate goal is to become the perfect robot?
      Sounds good?

      After discussing human beings' obsession...

      I would rather die with "hands" than marry an inflatable doll

      As far as I'm concerned, I think it's a critical movie with a comedy cover and a serious discussion of "patriarchal" social issues.
              All problems are two-sided. The existence of "patriarchy" is rooted in the long-standing patriarchal social civilization. For a long time, men with more physical strength have dominated the development of productive forces, naturally owning most of the social wealth, and can easily marginalize women as their appendages.
              So, has this...

    Movie plot

    The young couple Joanna ( Nicole Mary Kidman ) and her husband ( Matthew Broderick ) moved from Manhattan to Stewart, where the wealthy live, but soon discovered that the neighbors’ wives were not like people. They were so perfect. As for the lack of emotion and personality, only her new friend Barbie ( Bette Davis Midler ) is an exception. She is a crazy, bitter, and alcoholic wife who is obviously still human.
    The two of them started...

    Evaluation action

    "The Stepford Wives" is not just a film that satirizes the relationship between men and women. The film is super subversive and comedic. It is a crazy attack on fetishism and perfectionism. ( Cross review) 
    The film does not teach the audience to let go of gender to return to the natural attributes. It only tells the audience how a man-in-law should get along with men. At the same time, it also tells the men that a woman who is not so...
