<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lets get this out of the way. First things first, <i><b>THE BAD</b></i>: It's a shame that Men's Rights have to be validated through the lens of a <i><b>feminist's</b></i> perspective in order to be taken seriously, <i>BUT</i>, at the same time that's the Documentary's strongest point.</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Men's voices are not being heard. If a man has a problem he has to <i>"Man up"</i> and shut up. If a woman has a problem it has to be some man's fault, we all know they are privileged, right? that is main stream <b>culture</b>.</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In this movie you will <b>NOT</b> see men bashing women left and right. You'll see men and women just talking about <b>Men's issues</b> and the need for those issues to be addressed, no more, no less.</p>
