--- End quote ---

Misogyny makes me pretty mad and I'm alright with that. It was undoubtedly intensified by the fact that I was watching it at the cinema, so that means I'm stuck watching something that's aggravating me with nothing to distract from it. Boring and occasionally dodgy I can deal with, I saw The Hangover in the cinema not long ago ("hey, have we been racist yet? Quick, insert comedy Asians!"), but I found this rather relentless in the aspects that got my back up.

Plus, I am admittedly a man who spends a good proportion of his life ranting about culture and generally getting worked up about things, so being furious with a film for half an hour is fairly normal for me.
