The average rating on this is far higher than the film merits. It is fairly entertaining, but too self-conscious and self-congratulatory to have any genuine weight. It contains the contemporary, woke worldview of a teenager brought up on social media. The male characters are appallingly simplistic and one dimensional in that same way feminist film critics complained about (either utterly supportive and devoid of any character beyond being easy-going and supportive, or egotistical children). Not so much a film in its own right as a "correction". It's like an "everybody's a victim except heterosexual men" piece , written by a bitter women's studies graduate. Abortion? That's absolutely fine, more of a lifestyle choice than the killing of a developing baby, and only bad people disagree. Simplistic left wing tract. Watch Francess Ha, or 20th Century Women. Far, far superior.
