This movie fails on all counts, and is terrible.

I agree with the rating (it is a movie mostly made up of men's monologues, after all) but I disagree with MLE's comment: the 'point' of Sara's research was to understand how the feminist movement has affected men. Though we never get to hear her thesis or any conclusions, I consider it an interesting look at men's ideas about relationships, sexuality, and masculinity. A 'feminist' movie? Maybe not, but I'd say it's worth a watch with some feminist friends for a good discussion after.
