Just another FEMALE power fantasy


The macho woman BS is strong in this turd. The girl with racoon eyes, punches a guy after he comes on to you? CHECK. Beat up a male in a sparring session? CHECK (of course the guy can only take her down AFTER she takes him down). Save the groups life by being the macho girl? CHECK. Figure out the "secret" that's obvious before any male could? CHECK.

The SJW's of the world keep churning out this kind of 1 dimensional women save the day garbage and the females just eat it up. Get over the macho woman fantasy ladies it's not real. And you watch this female power porn and try to act tough in the real world bad things will happen.

Just ANOTHER man in distress film, oh women please rescue us helpless men!!!

Obama got 43% of the white vote, McCain got 5% of the black vote. Who's the racist again?

And Captain America/Spiderman/Superman are totally real..
It was a fiction movie, not a documentary dumass.

Normally I agree on these types of comments because a lot of these "female empowering" movies are so ridiculous that you have to shake your head at them. But in all honesty this movie was pretty tame. There was nothing that any of the females did that was beyond the realm of possibility. All the things that the girls in this movie did can be picked up by an average women if she trained for a week or two.

What??? The story is about a teen girl who loses everyone she loves, one way or another and is trying to survive the final phase of extermination by aliens (and save her little brother)...she would not have made it past the first 4 waves if she were a traditional action movie damsel in distress waiting for her big strong boyfriend to save her...does a female character who can actually survive on her own really threaten your entire manhood?
